Nice old combo.
May sound somewhat "boxy" but sounds clean at low volume.

Nice amps. I did a clinic at a high school that had one of these and the band director was apologizing for it because his guys were all porkchopers and didn't like it. They just thought it was this dirty old amp that had been banging around the school since before fire. I was very pleasantly surprised by what a fairly warm and big sound that little amp put out. Reminded me a bit of the Polytones I've used.

The old cubes do sound nice. They are quite warm sounding, and fairly clear. The old Keyboard Cubes sound pretty good too...

I had one years!! ago and was good at low volume, not so good for louder gigs. Bought an SWR babyblue and my sound wasn't as good but had more volume.
