| I see some used ones on Reverb, some listed quite a while, but it looks like they do contain the "tone tube"??? Wonder if that 30 watts would be 30 SS watts,,,or 30 tube watts? |

Not sure if the 30watt models are capable, I believe for Steel you would need the 80watt Artist model.and the extra Clean Tube.
Only downside is the Artist is priced around £750 and the tone tube another £146 . The amp itself has a socket for adding whatever tone tube suits , i.e. there’s a Eric Johnson and Robben Ford tube that would be for guitarists. |

Most of my playing is done in my music room,,,my Katana is on .5 watts and will blow you out of the room.
From what I gather, a specific tube is used for specific applications. Would be interested to hear from other steel players as to opinions??? If,,IF it really does have a tube sound,,,then yes,,,it would be the Holy Grail. |

| Sonny , I don’t think you are able to fit the tone capsules in the smaller amps i.e. Blues Cube Hot , only the larger models🤔 |

Roland's website only lists the four Blues Cube Artist model amps as compatible. |
