Guitar amp question

Is this worth $20 if it works?

For a small practice amp, yes. Although its not the greatest to begin with.

One of my least favorite practice amps but better than no amp at all.

Roland Micro-Cube- $60 used and much much better.

Fender Vibro Champ XD- $150 used and actually pretty sweet tone.

Good to have on a workbench for testing. I have a Roland Cube 30 and GK 250ML for practice amps. Both are fantastic.

A ridiculous question really. It would be different if it was a hundo.

Don't skimp on the amp. It's like buying a nice stereo and hooking it up to crappy speakers.

I have a 20 year old Crate solid state practice amp in my office. When I want to try something for a minute that thing comes on. It's nice to have a small amp handy. I need to get me one of those cubes though. Battery power.

The Roland Micro Cube is def. the best thing since sliced bread.

Co-inky-dink time.

I have a slightly used roland micro-cube for sale, in original box.
Haven't put it on craigslist yet, but I'm thinking $50 plus shipping in case anyone's interested.
