The Roland Cube 80X is another interesting new product. I think the Cubes are great...they have the best models going(the JC120 clean is dead on) and pack the features on. This one is more powerful, adds a built in tuner and a looper...how can you beat that in a portable 1X12 combo. If I needed a new amp, I'd go with one of these...they sound great recording direct out too. I've had my Micro Cube for years and still use it constantly...never ending batteries...I don't know how they do that.
