User interface is amazing and love the build quality and the touch screen. I have used several other brands of modelers and this one is winning me over... Great tones I can get along with great effects and lush reverbs. Im sure this product will only get better with every update.

Fender really nailed it with the hardware and user interface on the Tone Master Pro. It is the easier modeler to use. If you are used to amps and pedals, you will have little trouble adjusting to this modeler. The Fender amps sound very good. The other amps are good, but could be a lot better. I found it hard to dial in a good tone on many amps. I often had to use extreme EQ to get close to what I wanted. I am not sure if it is the IRs they use in the cab section or the actual modeling, but it needs to be easier to get good tones. The reverbs are not great either. However, the TMP is a relatively new platform, and if Fender keeps supporting it, I am sure things will improve. #sweepstakes

I currently have a '65 Deluxe Reverb (non TM) as well as a decent compliment of pedals. I can get the kinds of sounds I want but I've been becoming more and more interested in modeling tech. I think there's a general feeling out there that modelers are not 'pure' but I also think people might be getting so caught up in 'does it sound exactly like my < insert signal chain here>?' that they're not considering 'does it sound good?' I know my way around Fender's amps and I can tell you the quality of reproduction is superb on that front. I do not have any real exposure to most everything else modeled by the Tone Master Pro so I can't comment on the accuracy of the models but I can say they sound good. There are a lot of presets that are attempting to emulate the sound of certain performers. Comparing against memory alone, most all of them sound pretty close. I was actually surprised at how much I sounded like Metallica after choosing the "And James for All" preset. Quality of construction is incredible. The chassis is metal and there is definitely some weight to the unit. The screen is sharp and well-lit. The buttons are top notch and their rotating feature adds a lot to the usability. I don't gig but if I did, I would not hesitate to depend on its construction carrying it through bumps and bruises without drama. It feels every bit as rugged as the standalone Boss and JHS pedals I have here. Ease of use is where the Fender shines. I am an IT professional and while I am confident I would be able to learn some of the more complicated alternatives, I really don't care to. Without reading through the manual or watching demos, I was able to boot up and get some chains going within minutes. When you use this thing, the process just makes sense regardless of the task at hand. The visuals are incredibly useful - it's helpful to see a very clear, relatable picture demonstrating what is currently in the chain and active. On the other side of things, the Fender's price hurts it when compared to other alternatives. I am a big stickler for when premium priced products don't deliver a premium experience and simply put, this is not one of those cases. This thing is dripping with quality and while that price tag is steep, I have zero regrets and I feel strongly that Fender delivered something worthy of that cost. I don't have a particular fondness for Fender over other things. I think I've owned one of everything at this point but my go to guitar these days is a Les Paul. I've had some Fender products I really liked and I've had some 'shake my head' duds too. Assuming the cost of admission makes sense, I can't see how you could go wrong with the ToneMaster.

If you decide to buy this, play it through the amplified speakers or a PA system. I'm using the FR12 tone masters. When I first got the tone master pro I had to use it through my PA system while I waited for the speakers to come in. I was blown away by the amazing sound. It literally surrounds you with sounds. I have been looking for a sound like this for a long time and have spent lots of money in the process. I am so happy with this purchase.

I use this in my home studio and it has literally replaced all my tube amps. Very cool!

I love mine! Usable realistic tones & easier for me to figure out than similar products by other brand names.
