Discover Your Perfect Sound

Roland's CUBE-20GX has three independent channels with some great guitar tones. The JC CLEAN channel gives you the sound of the Roland JC-120 whilst the LEAD channel offers six tones for you to select from - ideal for multiple styles of music. Choose from crunchy distortion, warm overdrive or extreme gain, or there's even a nice acoustic guitar simulation to experiment with. The SOLO channel is completely programmable so you can store all your settings from either the JC CLEAN or LEAD channel with additional EQ and effects. Channels are easily selected right from the front panel of the amp or, if you prefer, using an optional footswitch such as the BOSS FS-5U or FS-6.

If you love to experiment and want to be able to access a range of great guitar tones with ease the Roland CUBE-20GX is ideal. The simple controls on the EFX section can quickly dial up five stompbox type guitar effects, two types of dedicated DELAY and vintage spring emulation or studio-style plate REVERB so you can easily find the sound of your favourite artists.

Easily Link Your Favourite Music Apps

If you like to use music apps Roland's innovative i-CUBE LINK interface is the best way to seamlessly incorporate your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch with your guitar amp. The included cable allows you to connect your iOS device quickly and easily through the audio jack. Use your favourite music apps to play along with tracks, send studio quality guitar tones and effects straight into a recording app. The i-CUBE LINK jack can also be used as a stereo input so if you fancy simply listening to some tunes or recordings you've made, you can play them straight through the CUBE-20GX.

This intuitive music app turns your iOS device into a fun music centre for hours of jamming, recording and practice.

After recording you can experiment with the volume of your guitar and backing track and, once you're happy, export the mix to a 16-bit, 44.1 kHz WAV file to share or listen to later.
