Personally think that impossible to play at full volume for small amp....you won't know what you're playing on..just messy sounding...i'll only put until 11o'clock max on my Roland....but then...one thing is...you won't regret buying Roland stuff....

i thought ck is open on sundays? i know they're closed on mondays.

as for roland, go call the distributors, 03-78053263 and bug them on which shops have stock.

CK doesn't have Roland stuff...most of them are Line 6, Vox, Line6 TonePort, Washburn, but i prefer CK since their stuff is prepared to be tested by customer....

alor star dont have ledi confirm. alor star got marshall, hehe... but i cant really scout during cny, esp when shops dont open durin cny. just wanna try the sound, comparing every amp b4 getting one laugh.gif

last last sunday when i went to bentley, and while i drive pass ck i saw it was closed. so last sunday i didnt go there, assume it was close. i'm too shy to call them to ask which shop to test, coz i'm not gonna buy it blush.gif

dont look down on kedah wei, haha.. later that guy wutver name warning you (like he did in another thread)

well, alor star have few music shops.
music system and sze chan are the more famous ones, and their supplier is bentley. u can check them at bentley's dealer page. but then, their stock there looks the same always, and only open for training classes. (thats becoz even kedahans like me are buying guitars from kl) tongue.gif

just check out, seems like JS music has roland products smile.gif

Perak having same situation too...'largest' music shop in Perak is under Bentley too.....they get most of the stuff from there.....price would not vary too much.....RM30+/- .....unless Bentley having promotions....then varies would be bigger...

JS is major in Drums, DW, Pdp, Gibraltar, Vic Firth, Pro Mark, Gretsch and much more...I got my Planet Waves circuit breaker there.....JS selling Roland V-drums only i think.....

What's the price for the Roland Microcube. The lady boss said it's RM450 but she can give me less if i really want it from her. smile.gif


Added on February 7, 2007, 7:10 pm

hey Banzai_san, can u tell me how much u got ur Vox AD30VT? smile.gif

I paid RM820 (inclusive of postage to KKinabalu). But that was during CK Music's end of year sale (December 2006).

Whether you choose Roland Microcube (2W), Cube15 (15W) or Vox DA5 (5W), DA15 (15W), AD15 (15W), Pathfinder 15R (15W with reverb)... IMHO all are great practise amps.

For portability (small, powered by adapter or dry bateries) consider Roland Microcube or Vox DA5
( http://www.roland.com/products/en/Micro-CUBE/specs.html <-- Microcube )
( http://www.voxamps.co.uk/daseries/da5.asp <-- Vox DA5 )

If portability is of no concern, and you have more cash to burn, consider Cube15 or DA15 or AD15VT or the Pathfinder 15R

ermmm not much help in getting you to decide which... doh.gif laugh.gif

but, choose carefully. Try them out and decide. Any which one you choose, I think you are getting good practise amp.

p/s: Here's some sound clips for Roland Cube amp (Flash player required)...
- Cube-XX demo sound clip
http://www.bosscorp.co.jp/demos/en/CUBE-X_IT/index.html <-- click on "Sound Check" menu at the top

- Microcube demo sound clip
