Los Angeles, CA, September 1, 2010 — Roland U.S. is proud to announce the CUBE-XL series of guitar amplifiers, the latest generation of its top-selling CUBE amp family. With over one million CUBE amps sold and going strong, Roland continues to push the envelope of innovative technology and design with the new CUBE-XL series, which includes the CUBE-80XL, -40XL, -20XL, and -15XL.
The CUBE-XL amplifiers include new ultra-heavy COSM amp models, updated effects, and onboard phrase looping.
