• Worth its weight in Gold

  
  As reviewed by Rick on 11/27/2010

  This Amp is the best amp in its class. So much more features and functionality than any other practice/modeling amp. Been playing for 15 years, and this is the only piece of gear that has ever really suprised me. Buy it if you want a practice amp. Plenty Loud enough, amp settings are great, and ability to modify the settings gives this amp a 10 out of 10.

• The Best $99 you will spend on equipment!

  Don't let the small price or small speaker size fool you into thinking this is some cheap gimmick. This amp is serious, and is the BEST deal going in amplifiers right now! I have many amps, big, expensive amps, and many effects pedals, and this amp is more fun and easier to set up and use than all of them. It has excellent sound quality, feels real sturdy and looks handsome too. The amp is simple to use to modify sounds, and the presets are actually usable. But the REAL fun starts when you use the FUSE software, connect the amp to the pc with the usb cable, and really dig in to the huge amount of effects and amp models. Each effect can be modified just like a real effects pedal, and so can the amps. You actually have more control over the effects than you do in most multi-effects pedals! Being able to save and store a near infinite amount of patches on the pc to be transfered to the amp at any time is just awesome. Not to mention the FUSE online community where you can upload your patches, and download others from fellow Mustang users. The amp is loud enough to get the job done too! The only reason I would give up my Mustang 1 would be to upgrade to the larger Mustang II, but I am quite happy at the moment with the Mustang 1 because it's not too small, yet small enough to be portable. Now I can go to jams without lugging around several effects or big, bulky multi-effect units. To beat all, it comes with a 5 yr transferable warranty! What are you waiting for!?!?!

• Balistic Fender

  
  As reviewed by Loren Farque on 1/7/2011

  The Fender Mustang is a great deal for 99 dollars. The three effects dials allow me to customize the sound how ever I want. One dial uses distortion and reverb effects to get a sound from a certain time period. So the '65 twin reverb setting sounds like the Beach Boys while the British '80s setting sounds like a hair metal guitar. The other two dials are like having two special effects pedals built into the amp with a flanger and phasers. The amp itself is a good size and looks awesome. It can get pretty loud too so watch the volume knob as you change the settings. There are only two things that keep me from giving this thing the last star; as far as I can tell there is no way to turn the preset dial off (which is only a bad thing if you don't want to play with crazy sounds), and when the metal 2000 and any special effect is on and I face the amp it picks up this feedback that is really high pitched and makes my head hurt. It sounds good but the decibel level makes me cringe. Besides that it is a great amp for messing around and experimenting.
