So with this amount of control packed into the Mustang III, how does one go about harnessing this power?

Great Amp!

by Rodney Mitchell from Bronx, New York

Music Background: Recording and touring guitarist/composer.
I've played couple of gigs and a few rehearsals with this amp and I am very impressed! The sound is clear as a bell, but what really impressed me was the presence. This amp sounds good and cuts throug... read more [+]h at all volumes! The amp modeling is great. On my last gig, I heard my guitar go slightly out of tune. While still plugged in, I was able to switch the amp to tuner mode and tune my guitar right on the spot! Fender has surely gone in the right direction with this amp. I highly recommend it!!! close [-]

Nice features

The Mustang III offers a great compromise between features and price. The integrated LCD is really nice: you can change most of the settings right on the amp, vs. having to have the amp connected to a... read more [+] computer like the Mustang I and II. The 12" speaker can produce plenty of volume, or you can plug in headphones if you want to keep it quiet. There are plenty of preset tones to play with and you can customize any of them. The included software is a nice bonus. I'm really enjoying this amp! close [-]

Step it up a notch and connect the amp to your computer with the USB cable (provided)
The Fender Fuse software will blow you away with it's capabilities.
You actually get to see the modelling amps with the presets, effects, etc all under your control to modify them individually to your tone taste.
For $299.00 you get a GREAT amp, free shipping and unsurpassed customer satisfaction from Sweetwater.

The Incredible Mustang III

by Rick Mendyka Sr from Gillette, Wyoming
December 12, 2011
Music Background: Former full-time Pro Musician, Live Sound and Recording Engineer
OK... I toured, lived, slept, and... well you get the picture; with tube amps as well as solid state. But the Fender Mustang just plain tops them all!!! Ain't kiddin'... I started with the little Mu... read more [+]stang I for recording only and after creating some insanely great presets of my own, I discovered that recording with this tiny terror was as crystal clean and artifact-free as you can get. So what to do next? Sold the Mustang I and got the Mustang III, that's what! I have never come this close to tube sound in any solid state amp as the Mustang III can produce. This amp can model (and in some cases out-perform) nearly any great amp in music history you can name. My theory is: You've GOT to try one. No buyer's remorse here! Even comes with the two button Fender foot pedal. Don't wait 'til Sweetwater's sold out! close [-]

Our Customers Say...

When it came time to start from scratch with the studio, I had a lot of questions. The Sales Engineers I've worked with are really friendly and patient, and the guidance they provided was invaluable; they basically helped build the studio.
