New Fender Mustang GTX series - Massive range of effects and Amp Models AND A LOOPER! 

No loop? Kind of sad? Can you turn the preamp off?

Cheers!

I had to tweak all 100 presets to make usable

How does it sound speaker wise? Im thinking of selling a bunch of gear and just having a gtx now, as i only play at home for fun and dont need so many pedals cluttering up the place..but im worried id go from my orange thru a 1x12 cab, to this and hate the speaker sound. Do you get the feeling of moving air like you do with a real tube amp rig?

@@Doomlord777 did you do it? I’m considering exactly the same thing.

@@Ironworthstriking i did.downgrade.. but to an orange cr60.anf sold the tube amp and a few pedals, im down to just..7 including the tuner.. thats good going for me. Ive not rules out getting.one of these, but wanna try one before splashing the cash! 👍

they are properly modelled

It looks and sounds incredible did you get one?

Agreed, nice tone and extremely easy to move!

It is possible to use the 100 easily quieter than a 15w tube amp.

The super champ XD is amazing. shows what the boneheads can do if they were to make a mustang model with tub power section.

Pretty sure you can adjust the wattage right down as low as 0.5 watts.

Just unplug the speaker

you turn the master down and it mutes

Yeah, like a regular pedal

Yep, FX loop on the 100 is perfect for it

Wild, I’m on my 2nd one and it’s doing the exact same thing. Did you find a solution?

@@colecoulter1145 I found the solution in a forum and it works. Turn off WiFi. Simple as that.

I contacted Fender and turning off the WiFi after doing the update works. They said a lot of people with AT&T internet are having the same issue.

Same issue, also AT&T Wi-Fi interestingly. I contacted Fender and they just sent me a new unit. While that was in the mail I found the Wi-Fi solution. Resolved the issue on both amps, so now I’ve just got an extra GTX 100

The answer is yes.

Purchase the peddle that goes along with it i think the run 69.99

Or use your phone lol.. Since apparently no one is answering questions around here

You can edit them on the amp but obviously remotely activating them mid playing is only possible with the foot switch

The pedal switch comes with it

Good question! Searching: 'Introducing the Mustang GTX' Gets you the Fender guy, and this Video, I am on my way to see if He is taking comments on the Fender vid. I want to run a speaker from the GTX, so I can have 2-12's Possible? Alohaas

@@konarain I bought the GTX 50 and you can stack effects until you run out of processing power. Depending on the amp, settings, different effects it could be more or less effects. But I ended up returning the amp already. With certain effects added it was almost like the amp couldn't keep up and would start cutting signal. Perhaps I just got a defective one though.

yes

Obviously a $400-$600 amp isn't going to do gain sounds like $2000 tube amp, but the key to dialing in those types of sounds is getting to know all of the available controls for the amp models and being prepared to spend the time dialing in tones, and tweaking them.

james ryan of course. I guess I was thinking more like a Marshall DSL40CR which is only about $250ish more than the GTX and does gain well. I’ve been disappointed with gain from modelers like the Katana, even with tweaked settings. Again, thanks!

@@Smart-Alex My experience with Fender and high gain is that they can't do it well. How that is possible with all the money they have, I don't know. I had the first Mustang brains in floorboard form. Called the "Fender Floor" - not the most creative name perhaps but when I ran it through a tube amp - immediate 50% improvement. so, make a mustang with a tube power section. there's a video where some dude demos it and has dialed in the most badass high gain tones I didn't know it was capable of. I'll try to find it. Really cool what they could do if they wanted. sigh......

@@ilovenoise And the additional CABs make the variety UNLIMITED

@@coppulor6500 Fender Bassbreaker on the high gain stage does it.

also wanted to know the same thing

Bluetooth headphones would not work on any level. You will have latency issues. In other words you will have a small delay from when you strike the string to you actually hearing the sound.

The big thing with a Katana for me is that you never feel like you’re harnessing (or even accessing half of the time) the amps full potential, because it is locked away for deep editing via laptop / PC. It’s a shame but I think if you’re going to do modelling, you do need some sort of GUI, be that on the amp itself, or via app connection. There’s too much tucked away that you’ll never be bothered using otherwise.

That's a great way to get a big tone upgrade

I imagine you would struggle to tell the difference. I have the gt 100.

Check out intheblues channel. He hated the Gt100. Different story in the GTX. From what I can tell it’s mainly due to the speaker.

We are not reinventing the wheel here.

I couldn’t agree more Glen, as musicians it’s easy to be suckered in to what you think matters, but if someone plans to entertain, it’s far more important to sound good to your audience, than to have your gear list look good to your peers. I’ve owned all kinds of good and bad gear in the past and even recently was looking at new tube amps only to be put off by forums citing one problem or another, just let me plug something in, pick a setting and sound good - I don’t care what’s inside the box any more.

why not - its loud and DI outputs

It probably does because there is default compression on all of the tones, a compression setting that is ‘on’ by default. Some other reviewers have noted it, and then turned it off which improves the tone.

I agree. It's a shame because the Fender has so many great features, but it just can't compete on the sound.

@@TFShaw If you're more into clean, classic Fender tone you're far better off with the GTX.....for more crunchy, overdriven sounds the katana is the better choice.....for me there's no "this one's better than the other".....it just depends on what sound you're up to

Had a Katana for 18 months and after constant dabbling, could not get a sound I was happy with, sold it on

no it doesnt. i have played around with both
