"New Fender Mustang 1 amp review"
Sound: The sound of this amp is great for a small combo, and if you get bored with the presets you can make up your own or go online and download new tones from other artists.Something the ads don't mention is that it has a closed back for better bass response- it would probably be great for doing home recordings, and you can change the amp's tone to suit your recording equipment. It's not a tube amp-how many times have you wrestled with some cheesy low-powered tube amp to get a good recording sound? I got rid of my tiny little "Boutique tube amps". Feature: The reason I have given this amp top marks is because a lot of us players have brainstormed wish lists for years- ( what if it had this feature or that) and somehow Fender has put our wish list into a small combo amp for under a hundred dollars. Now I agree- this is not a marshall stack- but if you program it right, you can actually get a tone similar to a hot Marshall, but in miniature.You can plug it into your computer and control it in different ways; this is definitely not a rehash of a frontman amp- It will keep you discovering for a long time. Ease of Use: Here, top marks again. I pretty much figured it out immediately.It's easy to work with and it's easy to program new sounds, and if you use the supplied usb cable, you can control it any way you want from your computer. Not impressed at first? remember, this amp was built to give you great tones at a fairly low volume. It's like processed sound you would hear listening to a recording on your stereo, not a raging marshall tube amp behind you on stage.You have to see it from that angle. Quality: I believe the build quality is great ( how could a person build one of these for under a hundred dollars?). I mean, it's not a boutique amp made of figured maple, but it's top quality for the small amount you pay.I don't believe this would break if it fell over-the controls are recessed.No tubes to shatter.The knobs don't feel cheesy,and I believe that it should hold up well in the trunk of a car, even if it got knocked around. Value: For the money I give it top ratings because no one else offers anything like this for the price.The price is so low, you might have a tendency to disrespect this amp( how could it be any good at such a little price?). Manufacturer Support: Support? Fender probably spent tons of money to set up support-there is even a website specially for mustang amps, and the amp comes with a dvd to access its recording and customizing abilities.Of course, there probably is or will soon be a forum with chitchat about peoples' discovering new things to do with this amp.In fact, if you dug into all the available support, you wouldn't have time to play your new amp! The Wow Factor: All I can say is that when I saw it, I wanted it. It looks very appealing- Design, color, control arrangement, speaker cloth. If a friend came over to jam with you and saw it ,you would not feel embarassed. It just looks classy. Overall: I expect to be busy discovering what I can do with this amp for a long time.If I had to replace it, I would try to upgrade for the bigger Mustang 2.I've considered other alternatives, but those choices would have to include accessories to do what the Mustang would do all by itself.What I like the most about this amp is the very low price.

Thank you. Your vote has been counted. Could you briefly tell us why the review was or was not helpful?

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "SUPER VALUE FOR THE MONEY!!"
Sound: Although you do still get a bit of that "solid state" sound quality (of course, not as clear, clean, and rich as a tube amp) - it really has continued to amaze me with all of its possibilities! Once you plug it into your computer, giving you MUCH GREATER controll, you can achieve just about anything you want. You can turn it into any of the good old classic Fender amps ('57 Champ, '59 Bassman, '65 Princeton, Deluxe Reverb, etc.)that we all love - as well as Marshalls, high gain "botique" amps, etc. As another reviewer mentioned, you could pretty much spend all your time exploring - and very little playing time!! The point is: just about endless possibilities!! Feature: As I mentioned - with all the sounds you can create, feature-wise it is unbeatable. Did not come with foot switch, but for the money, I can't complain! One feature I think is very nice, is: once you select your amp model, you can click on "advanced amp", then be able to "plug into" (from that amp head) MANY different speaker cabinets, which gives you even more possibilites! Ease of Use: "Ease of use"??? . . . kind of a tough question - while maybe not "easy" in the sense that there are so many possibilites that you can achieve - it is still "easy" in that all of the controll functions are easily adjusted. Once you have have selected your amp model - it appears on your computer screen, you then - with your mouse - move your curser to what you want to adjust (gain, volume, treble, bass, etc.) and "have at it"! Quality: Actually, for the money, this is very well made. Perhaps not the quality of a much higher priced unit - but again, at this price - you can't beat it!! Value: Value-wise, I would like to be able to make this a "20", instead of a 10!! There is no way you can beat the "value" of this product!!!! Manufacturer Support: Fender support?? The FEW times I have ever had to deal with them, they are excellent. Always take care of you! The Wow Factor: Very nicely designed designed, "classy" looking, nice color, grill cloth, etc. - looks like it cost much more that it did. Overall: If for some reason this was lost or stolen, I would immediately replace it. I am sure it will keep me "satisfied" for a long time - it kind of gets you caught up in "hey, I think I'll try this, or try that" - it gets pretty addicting!!
