Fender Mustang Micro Headphone Guitar Amp, Bluetooth, USB Recording | 12 amp models, 12 effects, portable practice amp, plug-in headphone amp, Bluetooth audio, USB recording, home practice

Bought one of these from Amazon five months ago, very pleased with it. So much so that I just bought another one that was on offer from Amazon. I can leave one in my humbucker guitar and one in my single coil guitar. That way I can leave each one on the settings that I prefer for each guitar. At first sight, it might seem expensive for a small headphone amp, but in reality, many guitar pedals cost more, and only perform very limited functions. It plugs into a Les Paul and Strat type input jack perfectly (it's actually easier to see the controls in the LP guitar body). Not tried it in a Telecaster socket yet, but on line reviews say that's fine too. The 65 Twin with Compression setting certainly produces that classic squashed comp sound, ideal for country style, add some built in slap back delay for country/rockabilly. The 65 Deluxe setting is a cleaner tone, very nice, add built in reverb or delay to taste. I am used to a Fender Tube Amp, but this headphone amp does a very good job (nice Fender tone with a Strat). The Bassbreaker 15 setting is great for Rock, especially with humbuckers. Surprisingly, the Uber setting is also very useable for even more distortion. Streaming in backing tracks via Bluetooth (YouTube or Spotify) works well. The blend of playing to a backing track via good headphones really encourages you to play more, and pick up the timing and nuances of a song. I achieve the overall 6 hour play time between re-charge, even when streaming in backing tracks via Bluetooth. Expect battery life will diminish over the years. The volume control on the headphone amp is a bit too sloppy; could be improved with a more positive feel. The British 70's setting has a curios bloom/noise trail at the end of a note (like a compressor bloom). This is the same on both headphones amps that I have; maybe that is representative of the amp that it emulates? Overall a very useful tool and fun to use.

As someone who loves to play guitar but doesn't always have the space or opportunity to crank up a full amp, this little gadget has been a total game-changer. It's essentially a tiny amp that plugs straight into your guitar and lets you listen through headphones, but it's packed with so much more than just basic amplification. The sheer number of amp models and effects crammed into this thing is astounding. It boasts 25 different amp emulations, covering everything from classic clean tones to high-gain distortion. I've spent hours just experimenting with the different sounds, and they're surprisingly authentic. Whether I'm after a vintage Fender twang, a British rock crunch, or a modern metal roar, it's all in there. On top of the amps, you get another 25 effects to play with. There's everything you'd expect – different types of overdrive, distortion, fuzz, modulation effects like chorus and flanger, delays, and reverbs. You can even stack multiple effects to really sculpt your sound. The quality of the effects is also really impressive for something this compact. The fact that it has 100 presets is just mind-blowing. Some are factory presets that showcase the different amp and effect combinations, and you can also save your own custom tones. This makes it so easy to dial in your favorite sounds and recall them instantly. Bluetooth connectivity is another fantastic feature. I can connect my phone or tablet and stream backing tracks to play along with. It makes practicing so much more engaging and fun. Plus, you can also use Bluetooth to control the amp and access more features via a dedicated app (though honestly, the controls on the unit itself are pretty intuitive). Being USB rechargeable is super convenient. No more fumbling with batteries! A single charge seems to last a good few hours of playing, which is more than enough for a practice session or just jamming for fun. The portability is the real selling point for me. It's so small and lightweight that I can easily throw it in my gig bag or even my pocket and take it anywhere. It's perfect for practicing silently at home without disturbing anyone, but it's also great for quick jam sessions with friends if someone else has headphones. Honestly, for any guitarist looking for a versatile, portable, and great-sounding practice solution, this little amp is a no-brainer. The range of tones and features you get for its size is incredible, and the Bluetooth and rechargeable battery just add to the convenience. It's definitely one of the best guitar-related purchases I've made in a while.

The combination of loving loud, distorted and badly played guitars does not sit well with apartment living. I much prefer to keep my noise to myself and keep both of my legs functioning normally. I made the mistake of getting one of those Marshall practice amps, primarily so you can plug headphones in it, thinking you absolutely would need lots of knobs to adjust (That sounds a bit rude), and ended up just sitting on the floor stuck to an amp by cable that I could not be remotely arsed to set up every time I fancied a quick twang (oh jeez sorry, that sounds ruder). This headphone amp is exactly what I needed. It has got loads and loads of different tones from those classic Twin Reverb sounds and lots of ready made effects on loads of presets. Each one can be easily adjusted with a simple EQ switch click to boost or lower Bass or Mids etc (no more knobs required!) so you can get hundreds of different sounds, without faff. No one likes faff. I think the only thing it really needs is some kind of switch to flick between presets mid song, like quiet to loud etc. the good news is you can plug it in to a pedal and then plug the pedal into your axe if you want to. You just can’t go between presets while playing. I haven’t even bothered with the app interface to customise presets yet and it already is well worth it for me. Great sounds, easy to use, hassle free and lets you concentrate on actually just playing and enjoying your guitar. I think eventually this type of amp will turn into a full plug in and play music studio, where you could hypothetically rock up at glasto, plug into the system and do your thing.

Great little plug in guitar amp sound is good features are excellent

Just picked up the Fender Mustang Micro Plus a few days back and honestly, I'm proper happy with this little beauty. The sound quality is absolutely spot on, crisp and clear with surprisingly authentic amp models that range from lovely clean tones to proper heavy distortion that actually sounds convincing through headphones. I needed something for silent practice at home and when I'm travelling, and this tiny device has smashed all my expectations. The effects are genuinely studio quality, the Bluetooth works a treat for jamming along to tracks, battery lasts ages, and despite being featherlight, it feels properly solid and well made. The USB-C connection is dead handy. For what you pay, you're getting professional level tone and flexibility that would normally cost you thousands with traditional kit. I'm still in the early days with it, but being able to practice anywhere with genuinely great sound has already changed how I approach my daily routine. Absolute winner for any guitarist who wants quality without the faff of lugging proper amps about!

Love this, I can play anywhere and not annoy anyone. It fits nicely into the guitar as you can position it to accommodate different guitar shapes. There’s a lot of great guitar tones and it’s easy to use with the phone app. It hardly weighs anything so easy to put in your gig bag and carry around. I recommend getting the case as it’s a bit plasticky, and probably not the most solid. Looks small but packs a lot of tonal power. You can also use it as an audio interface. It functions well as a headphone amp with lots of choice in sounds. My main gripe is not being able to use it via Bluetooth into a daw, but you can stream videos and audio through it to play along to. Also watch out for the noise gate, as it can make anything bring streamed with a metronome cut off the sound. I got around this by playing the iPhones background music just loud enough to keep the noise gate open.

I love this and knew I would. We live in a digital age now where we don't have to collect many amps and effects for a very high price, just to be able to try some of the classic Fender sounds. Well worth the price, it functions very well, basic but robust enough for me to leave plugged into the guitar while I am not using it. I bought a great pair of headphones to go with it and that has been worth pairing them up, i just want to try it with a Bluetooth amplifier like a Blackstar to be able to test the output with a speaker. I imagine it will be just as amazing as with headphones. With 50 fun and classic presets and 50 extra spaces to make your own using an app on Android for me, using a Samsung tablet I can create different amp and fx combos easily giving great versatility easy enough for anyone to edit create new sounds. Fender is one of the most famous guitar brands synonymous with classic American and UK styles, all easily created and fun to jam with on this. My battery is easily lasting me 5 hours playing and I'm 43 now so don't play that often but still daily and it keeps well charged, while also charging very quickly when needed. I love using it on my Epiphone Sheraton where it has the lead jack on the front of the body of the guitar so it sits like a little computer, fitting perfectly for ease of use and style. It has a few buttons and switches and a dial on the front with a small screen, its been made to use with ease straight from the box. I can recommend this to anyone but it's perfect for me to save money on electric bills for amps when at home and using headphones, while it is also great for travelling, you can even walk around town with headphones on if you want. I want to try the Vox ones and Marshall bit I am pleased I started with Fender as I could never afford Fender amps above the other amps I chose over the years so this has been great to fill that gap.

This is a genuinely superb piece of kit! I read a few reviews online before purchasing this and decided to buy it as a practice aid. The effects, audio quality and tonal emulation is off the charts good for something this small and portable. It's actually astonishing how this tiny device is able to do this. In fact, can't think of anything bad to say about it. Battery life is excellent, build quality is great, I've already mentioned the tones and sound quality, but it's worth a second mention... they're that good. Even the app works well and is easy to use. Just charge it up, switch it on, pair it to your tablet or phone and jam. Or use it standalone if you must - no app required. If your even considering it, just go for it.

Excellent little case for the mustang micro. For those folks complaining about the price of the case... Are you serious? The micro's a $170 pocket amp, and you're complaining about spending $25 to protect that investment? This is a no-brainer. Seriously. - Solid "hardshell" style case, it's nice and rigid on the corners, definitely will protect the micro from bumps/drops. - Good amount of storage. - Nice little velcro strap to hold the micro in place as you open the case. Yes, the zipper is fairly stiff. But still -- do you WANT your case to open easily? I don't. 10/10 would buy again.

Används ofta i hemmet, fungerar bra för bas och gitarr. Ljud och inställningar är mycket bra för en sådan liten pryl.

Arrivée très rapidement et très bonne qualité

Je suis très étonné qu’un objet aussi petit et léger puisse sortie un son aussi bon. J’ai essayé sur ma Jazz Bass, on retrouve le son fender. Et sur les guitares c’est le même constat, on retrouve le son Hendrix avec une start’. C’est incroyablement bon pour le prix ! Avec le backtrack Bluetooth c’est le top ! Bravo à Fender de sortir un produit aussi bon. Alors par contre moi je l’ai essayé avec un casque Sony WH-1000XM3 qui est une pépite en terme de son. J’imagine qu’avec des écouteurs c’est pas la même expérience.

Just brilliant stuff. Get it. Tech Marvel. Sounds absolutely fabulous.
