Re: New Fender Mustang amps coming soon
I want to know if they're going to continue making Pawn Shop Series amps.
I'm sure the new Mustangs will be good, but I have a thing for their oddball tube amps like the Vaporizer and Excelsior.
edit- and now that I know they're not, I think the smartest Fender buys will be Craigslist scores of high dollar Fenders like Vibro Kings, Bassman LTD, and Super Sonics.
Used Mustangs are a steal too. So cheap for what you get.

I think BassBreaker 007 sounds like crap. Fender can't make an EL84 get a Fender sound or a Marshall sound...it's some wimpy thing in between.

I've not used one, but there are some very good sounding demos of this amp out there. These make me wanna check one out at the least. Of course, the key to these types of amps is volume.
This dude only knows how to play at one annoying speed, but

Re: New Fender Mustang amps coming soon
The Bassbreakers are Fender copies of Marshall copies of Fenders orginal 6x6 amp using ELx tubes. Something gets lost in the reverse engineering of reverse engineering with tube substitution to muddy things even further. But I am an old time Fender amp fan so you have to take my opinion as somewhat slanted.

No, the amp definitely doesn't sound muddy. That is not what I was talking about. I wwas saying the reverse engineering of the reverse engineering and the swapping back and forth between 6x6 and ELxx tubes was a muddy process. Sorry for the confusion.
