The Fender Mustang I and II amplifiers turned out to be massive hits in the market last year - providing incredible features for the price for anyone looking for a bedroom and rehearsal amp. The Good news is that Fender have just grown the Mustang family and the Mustang III is a great medium-sized 1x12 combo that can dish out almost any tone you can imagine.
With 100w of power and a 1x12 speaker, the Fender Mustang III will have plenty of power when it comes to doing a big gig, yet it's also good for jamming at home because of the feature-packed interface and a huge selection of amp models.
Here's what Fender say about the Mustang 3 Amplifier
HIGH-SPEED, AMPED-UP AND LOUD
The new Fender Mustang amplifier series raises the standard for modern guitar versatility and muscle. Driven by incredibly authentic amp models and a huge bank of built-in effects, Mustang amplifiers come equipped with USB connectivity and Fender FUSE software, allowing your musical creativity and imagination to run wild.
Mustang III is a 100-watt open-back combo with a 12" Celestion speaker that sounds great and pumps serious volume. It contains 100 amp presets derived from 12 different amp models that deliver tones from vintage Fender sparkle to outrageous modern metal distortion, and 37 different effects in four categories (stomp, modulation, delay and reverb), all easily and instantly accessed. It's great for rehearsing, jamming and small gigs, and the 1/8" headphone jack doubles as speaker-emulated line out. Further, connect Mustang III to your computer with free Fender FUSE software. Open up a world of possibilities, including on-screen parameter control, deep editing, additional effects, unlimited preset storage, online preset swapping with the Fender FUSE community, and free Fender artist presets. Mustang III's included programmable two-button footswitch controls preset up/down, quick access, effects on/off and tap tempo (optional four-button footswitch also available).
Mustang III packs it all into a striking visual design with sleek and modern Fender styling that provides a look that's as desirable as the sound.
