Title: Alternatives to a Micro Cube
Post by: Guitarglasgow on March 06, 2013, 10:31:13 PM
I use a Roland Micro Cube for most of my teaching work and it's finally died on me. I can't seem to find another one on the cheap (and I am cheap) and I was wondering if anyone has any ideas for other, portable, versatile and hard wearing small amps?

The only one that springs to mind atm is the Fender Mustang Mini, not sure it'll beat the superb micro cube, but might be worth looking in to.  It also has a USB connection so you can connect to your PC and use the Fender fuse software.  http://www.fender.com/en-GB/series/mustang/mustang-mini/

Looks pretty good actually, although I can't use the USB function due to being a Linux user. However they're more expensive on Ebay than a second hand MC so back to that I think!
