Awesome little piece of equipment... 2 watts, headphone jacks, recording jacks. effects and a fwe amp models to play with. Runs about $130 usd... a good friend bought one of these and we used it to play out with the other night.. right into the mixing board... by itself, this little thing will blow your head off!!!

YES! YES! YES! I just got one of these and I'm having so much fun. I don't think the Cube 15 has as many bells and whistles as the Microcube. The thing has a GREAT sound, great amp emulations, multiple delays and reverbs, plus all the flangeresque stuff that I don't touch, but might be fun.

The other thing that most people really never understand is that you don't need a big amp unless you're playing out with a band. I can DRIVE the Microcube in my living room and still hear the phone ring. I can't say enough good things about it.
