Historical Context and Positioning in the Range
The Roland Blues Cube Hot fits within the Blues Cube approach: offering an amp with an organic feel and the responsiveness of a good tube combo, while maintaining the reliability and practicality of a modern design. In the lineup, it represents the "plug and play" format: a simple interface, a real 12-inch speaker, and the essential controls to go from clean to crunch without getting lost in menus. The idea is clear: a compact combo that sounds "big," with immediate handling.
Who This Amp Is For
The Blues Cube Hot targets guitarists from the motivated beginner to the pro who wants an efficient combo amp capable of keeping up with a drummer in rehearsal while remaining usable at home thanks to power attenuation. It is particularly comfortable in blues, classic rock, vintage rock, soul, funk, and pop whenever a warm clean, a nervous "edge-of-breakup," and a crunch that reacts to guitar volume are sought. In the studio, the USB connection facilitates direct recording, and on stage, the open-back design helps the amp "breathe" and project naturally.

Good morning everyone,
I bought this amp to replace my original 2003 Fender Blues Junior that followed me for about fifteen years.
I had concerns with the transistor, especially after the accidental acquisition of the Roland GA-112, which sounded very badly when crunch/ saturated...
So Blues Junior goes all the way in a blues/rock register with Overdrive. (US Stratocaster)
Big surprise on the Roland blues cube Hot which is as good as the Fender BJ.
The frequencies highlighted are not the same between the two but it sounds great!
The advantages of the Roland Blues cube:
- Weight
- No lamp but it's just like without maintenance worries
- take the pedals well with a reproduction similar to blues junior (overdrive delay..)
- Cheaper than the BJ
- Top power selector!
I have to test it in Group soon I will update the review.. in the meantime it's a quality amp like its big brother the Blues Stage...
In concert at the Top!
For the restaurant to the piano bar and pub for blues.
The amp can easily be used without pedals
with a clear sound at 3 or 4 on the volume and the Boost button that brings Gain (not volume)
If bigger concert, obligation to use a pedal..
and it's the same for the blues stage...
Quite simply, if you add a delay, you must put it at the end of the chain for better rendering.
The only thing: as soon as you activate a pedal, in general, the frequency spectrum is much narrower (less bass and less treble more in the mids...)
Tested with a Boss SD-1.
In any case Superb amp!!!Automatically translated

I hesitated for a long time with a Fender 5w tube amp.
I am very happy with this purchase, it really exudes quality, the sound is exactly what I needed (Blues rock), really great in terms of sound! Plus it sounds at any volume unlike a tube amp. I'm going to add a Boss footswitch and forward! I really think that this amp deserves to be better known! I recommend with your eyes closed.Automatically translated
