Comments
I was really intrigued with the Mustang 4 though by a few independent online videos and for the the prices they can be had now took a punt on one a while back.
I still don’t know if it faithfully reproduces any of the sounds it’s supoosed to and I definitely don’t like everything it does. But I’d be pretty sure than anyone could find at least one sound in there they really like. That alone makes them good value I think but if you find 3, 4 or more things you like, it’s incredible.
Put shortly, no affiliation with the seller here at all but I’d say this is well worth someone’s time and money.
Thanks for the comments guys. The only reason I am selling this amp is that it is too big for my bedroom; if it were physically smaller then I would definitely keep it as most of the pre-set sounds and particularly the amplifier sag settings, once 'tweeked' or edited, can be made to produce very realistic sounds. As @Voxman said it has a big full sound and, better still, it has a stereo amplifier (2 X 75W) connected to two independent Celestion 12" speakers and the many of the FX are reproduced in stereo which further enhances the finished edited sounds.
For those interested in a comparison I have replaced the Mustang IV with a physically much smaller Boss Katana 2 x 12 and I've been able to compare them side by side . The Mustang is very simple to use and all edits of the pre-loaded amp models are incredibly easy to make in seconds via the onboard control wheel without the need for using the free Fender Fuse software or a computer and edited sounds can be stored in any of the 100 user memory slots. By comparison, the Boss Katana sound editing system seems incredibly clunky and the preset sounds can only be edited via the Boss Tone Studio software on a computer and the Katana only has a feeble eight user memory slots. Also, the Katana does not have two independent amplifiers or speakers so there are no stereo sounds.
If I had more space I would definitely keep the Mustang as it is a superior and easier to use combo overall.
