Fantastic amp

For those of you who are looking for an amp to cover a wide range of instruments, this amp is the king for me. I have a modeling guitar effects pedal (w/ guitar), bass guitar, keyboards, electronic drum kit and an ipod. Each one is able to be connected (at the same time) with great sound. I was, at first, worried about not having two speakers for a stereo feeling. This amp with the ipod alone was able to produce a huge sound just on level 2 out of 10.

Since I have multiple instruments, this amp is perfect. At the store I tested the bass quality with a really cheap bass and it was full of tone. A guitar through a model pedal is great too. This amp is basically a monitor/pa system.

If you are considering buying it, spend the money. You will be happy. This is my guitar amp, my bass amp, my electronic drum monitor and when I have a party in or outdoors this is my PA system.

Without a doubt, a great purchase.

  Very nice amp for keyboards.

I purchased this amp from Jon Gauthier at Sweetwater. I am using the Roland VK-8M Organ Module with a Motion Sound Pro-3 Rotating horn along with two Edirol M-80 controllers for my Organ sound.(Also purchased from Jon G. at Sweetwater). I use the Roland KC-350 amp as the low rotor simulator. It sounds GREAT !!!!!!!Has a very nice Clear low end. SWEETWATER ROCKS !!!!!

  Sounds great with guitar modelers as well!

I run my Vox Tonelab SE thru the KC 350. I'm very happy with the sound.. the KC 350 allow the amp/cabinet styles to sound as close as possible. I play my Yamaha Motif ES8, thru it as well, and grand piano, B3 patches sound clear. Its more than loud, I use it as a fold-back monitor, and line-out thru our house PA. As a wotship leader, I need to cover a wide variety of muscial styles... the KC 350 is a great rig!

Roland KC-350 Keyboard Amp review 
by Anonymous from spokane washinton usa, March 2006

I disagree with the first reviewer, only comment as to the KC-550 from trying it out in the store, was that it was way too loud to try and see where its limits were. I felt bad for all other customers for trying it out at the leve i did go to which was like 3/4 on the volume knob. that is dangerously loud. for a keyboard player near their monitor. I got the KC-350 and took it to a gig the very next day. I play with in a very loud rock band, both the guitarist and the bass player go through 4 speaker cabnits with tons of wattage. my single 12" set at my side was more than plenty to let me hear myself, as well as triggering looks from the guitarist when my licks were tasty to his ears. has a out to go to the mains so what more could i ask for. my keyboards sounded true, and clear, no distortion or atrifacts, no radio station buzz. its small enough and light enuf to carry and fits perfectly ontop of a 19" keyboard gig rig rack.

Roland KC 350 vs KC 550 Dissappointed for sure. 
by Wes 'The Nipper" Nagy from Martha's Vineyard, MA, July 2005

I had bought the big brother of the Roland KC 350 first, the KC 550,much heavier and louder, but I loved it. I bought the 350 to play in stereo and use for smaller club gigs as it IS lighter (but surprisingly has NO wheels!). The inputs are similar as are the controls, but that is where the similarity ends. The sound is thinnish and totally significantly different than the 550's clear balanced tone. The 350 kills piano sounds and distorts quite easily even at regular gig volumes. Forget doing battle with a guitarist's twin reverb! The tonal difference between the KC 550 and the 350 is so different that stereo setups are too weird to do.Stay with the Roland KC 550, unless you want to play really quietly and have some weird EQing to get the right timbre!
