DetroitBlues Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 I've played the Mustang I and the Mustang II. Both great sounding solid state amps that are well under $500. Not sure how the tone is at high volume, but its great at low to medium volume. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schundog Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Search "Fender Mustang Series" in the forum search, I had a thread on this earlier this year. I still want a III, had a IV (TOO big!) and I have been playing my little Mustang I probably more than anything lately, as it gets plenty loud for my basement practice, and gets really good tone very easily. I bought it used for $50 at GC. Definitely worth a look. Good luck!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genericmusic Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Check the Gear page also. I heard mixed reports. I played several a few years back but ultimately settled on a Roland Cube 80XL. A little more money but I thought it (the Roland) was a better amp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A little more money but I thought it (the Roland) was a better amp.I absolutely agree, the Roland Cube 80XL is head and shoulders above and beyond the Mustang III, not only in tone/sound but also in build quality. Having had both neither comes up to my expectations or requirements but if I had to choose between the two the Roland Cube 80XL is a clear winner.

RhoadsScholar Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 I'm a mustang III fanboy. Used the Line 6 HD stuff, have great tube amps. THe III is the one to get. 100 watts, great sounds live. Lots of programability with the software. You can adjust the tube bias (okay there is no real tube bias, but tonally, allows you to dial in the presets with various guitars). When GC has a sale, you can get these for $250 with a 5 year warranty. light weight... I don't think you could go wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
