Fender Amp Mustang I V2 Combo

Product Information

While the controls on the Fender Mustang are fairly straightforward, it doesn’t compare to the software.

The Katana is very similar to the mustang as it’s also a solid-state modeling amp offering its own editing software. If you would like to change your settings or withdraw consent at any time, the link to do so is in our privacy policy accessible from our home page. Finally, with its great range of amp voices, effects, and presets, the only time you’ll really outgrow this amp is when you need something louder to play live. It is absolutely asinine to abandon thousands of people who were trusting enough to choose their product. All the time and effort goes into cramming it full of features, but not bothering to make the speaker actually sound adequate.Having an amp that looks good can be a great selling point, especially for a beginner who might not really know what they want yet and needs a versatile first amp.

It has allowed my students to not only start out with a great basic tone but allowed them to learn about different effects and learn to tweak their tone to their liking. The amp was obviously mic’d, because 20 watts of solid-state through an 8” speaker isn’t enough to keep up with a band. Now, let me start off by saying this amp is not as versatile as the Fender Mustang or the Katana (lacking even basic effects like reverb), but it’s a great practice amp if you want to start using pedal-based effects. Whilst the Mustang doesn’t have this kind of hassle on the amp itself, the software might be a bit of a nuisance to use at first. It weighs just 17lbs and houses an 8’’ Special Design speaker that tries to carry on Fender’s signature sound with a couple of modern twists.None of this matters if it doesn’t sound great, and unfortunately… that was our biggest gripe with the Fender Mustang.

So the British amp models will have plenty of mids, whereas the American ’90s amp models are fairly scooped. This is a user interface that allows you to change amp voices, settings, and tones; as well as saving and loading settings. So, whereas tubular amps are the professional choice and sell for professional budgets, digital technologies allow for cheaper designs suited for beginner, amateur, and enthusiast musicians. However, in classic Fender fashion, it won’t suit you well in high-gain situations and genres like hard rock or metal.I think there should be some sort of reconcile or accommodations promptly made to remedy this situation. The Fender Mustang is obviously a solid-state amplifier, so getting that tube response is very difficult. Saving a new preset means you have to delete the old one, but with FUSE software, you can save it online and use it again later. There are buttons for saving, an exit button, a button to access the built-in tuner, a headphone jack, a jack for connecting an audio player, a jack to plug in your guitar, a jack for the optional footswitch, the power control, and a USB jack to interface the amp with Fender Fuse or other audio software.
