WELCOME BACK!!! I hope this video surprises you as much as it surprised me! Let me know if YOU are gonna pick one up and if you are click the link in the DESCRIPTION BOX!
Dude why we only have only a little over 6,000 subscribers in this community blows me away dude such an amazing video love to have you for a private teacher a lot of my memory was lost while I was deployed because of an IED I was involved in
I got a Mustang Micro last year and I love it! I use it to rehearse and to record on my laptop while on the road. I even linked it to my bandmate’s living room soundbar to work on new songs while he was at his piano!
@@jimmyfranklin Kicks serious ass... I just tried it on my bass on the console preamp setting and is awesome. My guitars sing on it... I'm considering recording a song fully on this...
Wow that overdrive on the beginning was awesome. With my HSS strat it didn't sound even close. But clean tones sounds better than on Ibanez. But it's natural that strat have great cleans. It's very important to use nice guitar with this amp. I've tried this with cheap Epiphone SG and it was terrible :)
Huge emphasis on the vast difference in quality on this between guitars I used this with a Fender Player HSS strat and was very disappointed in how it sounded, but then plugged my Squier Classic Vibe '50s Telecaster and it sounds badass
so i am not entirely sure! but from what i see i think you can with the right adapter from the headphone out into your phone! if you do try this please let me know if it works... i just havent tried it yet
i was asked where I bought mustang micro the answer direct from fender online can`t find customer service info anywhere anybody know? My volume barely works
bin watching videos on this device for the last 6 hours & finally i found someone playing a little rock/metal lol thank you!!! (who doesnt love some rammstein) still not sure ive heard enough to sell me on it yet, whats your opinion on its uses for metal music?
BRO! that metal 2000 setting can be very useful... and the uber is sweet... do i think that you can find better metal settings in other products?? totally... this IS a fender product btw.. but if you need something simple for just at home practice and scratch tracks it doesn't get much easier than this! what would you be using it for?? you play 7 strings??
@@jimmyfranklin thanks for the reply, I play 6 string (sometimes bass) through my PC (Guitar Rig6 always with headphones) but latency can be problematic at times even going through the focusrite scarlett, so this device just looks perfect for what i need (as a simple bedroom rocker lol) my only concern was the limited metal options
@@DeadMetal07 oh man! in that case i think youll be pleasantly surprised! no latency at all... you saw that in this video...i should try this with my seven string!
@@jimmyfranklin its impossible to get this in the UK lol (without waiting 10 weeks) I might have to try find someone to mail one from overseas, i dont suppose u could tell me the dimensions/weight of the full package (so i can try figure out shipping costs) I cant seem to find tht info not even on the fender website
YES!! what kind of laptop are you running?? ill tell you everything you need to know to get started! what you are hearing in this video would sound the same recorded on to any computer!
@@jimmyfranklin thanks! I got an ASUS netbook which I'll use an external hard drive to extract the songs and save them that way until I upgrade my desktop soon
@@jimmyfranklin I just figured that out since it was delivered yesterday and it works great plugged into an amp that has a 1/8 inch aux input jack. I can also plug the usb-c into a computer but am having a hard time finding software for looping...
People ask me this all the time... im not as familiar with it.. i will tell you that since this is a fender product the fender sounds sound amazing and convincing. im sure the nux has its own perks but im pleased with the tones im getting here
@@jimmyfranklin hahaha...ok so why not making a Comparison Video on youtube...there are no C vids out to compare this units. Would interest many peoples, peace Jung.
Damn you Mr. Franklin! Didn't know this existed until now and my wallet may just get $100 lighter!! So many possibilities. The convenience and freedom of some bad ass tones with only the micro and a pair of headphones is awesome. You can jam while getting your mail, a nice day at the park, as a passenger in a car, sitting on the back patio, the list goes on and on! Too cool. Does it fit your strandberg without "being in the way"? I may dip my toes in the strandberg pool and immediately was curious on the connection with the micro. Great playing as always and great video. I guess I can thank you for helping me spend $100. \m/
HAHAHA!! DUDE.. i gotta try with the strandberg!! i forgot... im glad that i can lead my viewers in the right direction of good products!! this one honestly blew my mind! all of the tiny things they make now are nreal and im happy to see fender jumping on the band wagon!
@@jimmyfranklin Ytube just auto played a video of the NuX MP-2 Mighty Plug. This looks like a great contender, possibly better at a lower price. Try getting your hands on one for a comparison video, I'd be interested in your thoughts on the two. I'm gonna hold out on the Mustang Micro for a bit, see what else is out there. Rock on! \m/
No, the bluetooth function is for streaming into the Mustang micro. I use a pair of wired Beyerdynamic DT 240 over the ear headphones and the Mustang micro sounds great with it.
Thanks for your review! Sounds pretty awesome :) So I guess instead of headphones you can hook it up with a speaker as well? My bluetooth headphone has no jack...and I understand the bluetooth only works with a smartphone/tablet, but not with headphones/speaker - something to improve for the next model maybe? One thing tho, it's a shame: it is another 'Made in china' product. My money doesn't go to anything Made in china. I hope the next run will be a Non made in china one. Then I will rush to my local music store to grab one!
@@jimmyfranklin yeah checked out a friends & Loved it.. ideal for my pratice travel guitar when im away from home.. Had to order from the US & Have it flown over to UK its Arriving Tomorrow Buddy
Even Amazon was sold out, placed my order 3 weeks ago but got it today. I played until my fingers hurt. Then kept playing. Btw it was fully charged out of the box.
@@SteverRob Nice one !! I guess your enjoying it then lol Is it as good as you thought ? Fender recon the battery fully charged is good for 4 hours play time
@@jimmyfranklin the nux was out first. There is a bunch of vids of it on here. You download their app and has three distortion channels, one accoustic, backing tracks, drum machine, tuner metronome, twelve amps with interchangeable amp heads. Bluetooth to anyrhing. Check it out, had it like six months already and blows away all others.. NUX MIGHTY PLUG 2.
@@dagony7383 but you have to interface with a computer or iPhone to get the tones and to even use the volume control. The Fender is a one off product that doesn't depend on an external PC or phone!
WELCOME BACK!!! I hope this video surprises you as much as it surprised me! Let me know if YOU are gonna pick one up and if you are click the link in the DESCRIPTION BOX!
Hey!!! I just bought one and can't figure how to set it up to use with MacBook or iPad. Can you help me out with this?
Best review so far shows everything in a reasonable amount of time.
Dude why we only have only a little over 6,000 subscribers in this community blows me away dude such an amazing video love to have you for a private teacher a lot of my memory was lost while I was deployed because of an IED I was involved in
Wow, that thing surprised the hell out of me! great stuff!
Dude... I know!!! its like its the early 2000s and cell phones are trying to get smaller and smaller!! Crazy time to be alive!
You make it look so fun! Thanks for making this video.
Of course! I did enjoy the hell out of it!
I got a Mustang Micro last year and I love it! I use it to rehearse and to record on my laptop while on the road. I even linked it to my bandmate’s living room soundbar to work on new songs while he was at his piano!
The Price is Right! Now to find my favorite tones. You have skills! Energetic review. Thanks.
That tapping melody was sick! Great video. My micro is on the way
HELL YEA! thank you!! thats absolutely awesome! when you get it let me know what you think!
This device takes pedals, too. You can run your pedalboard into it.
WHAT!?!? HOW?? no way!
You put it at the end of your pedalboard.
@@midlifecruiser female to female 1/4" inch jack adapter for using a 10' or more guitar cable to the last pedal to your board will work
can you also get clean tone/preamp output from the FMM to run pedals/amps on your computer
Must fun review of this product I've seen!!! Already waiting for mine to arrive 😬
NICE THANK YOU!! how do you like it??
@@jimmyfranklin Kicks serious ass... I just tried it on my bass on the console preamp setting and is awesome. My guitars sing on it... I'm considering recording a song fully on this...
Killer playing bro
THANK YOU SO MUCH!! this thing was super inspiring!
Getting mine today!!! Great video!!!
You melted my face. Great job!
thank you sir!! the heat felt nice, right?!
@@jimmyfranklin I'm in Arizona...I'm used to it. :) Keep on melting.

Only thing better than the amp is your playing. Thanks!
HEY! Thank you so much!! You thinking about picking one of these up??
@@jimmyfranklin I am. Also, working on a Fender endorsement deal.
@@PeteGeorge oh yea?!? NICE!! how so???
worked great for about 2 months now can`t get any volume out of it can`t find fender Cust service contact info was great until it wasn`t
THAT SUCKS! where did you buy it?? maybe the retailer can help! my is still ripping!
Can i use this as an interface like Irig to do some effects through my phone app
so i am not entirely sure! but from what i see i think you can with the right adapter from the headphone out into your phone! if you do try this please let me know if it works... i just havent tried it yet
@@jimmyfranklin Well I don't really have one... Can you try it for me... So that I could decide to buy it or not.. Ty:)

@@DeadMetal07 ok. they sent me a special packaging for this... but the part that i think you would receive weighs about 6 ounces!
Can you record on a laptop, if you can does it sound good and is it simple to save the recordings?
YES!! what kind of laptop are you running?? ill tell you everything you need to know to get started! what you are hearing in this video would sound the same recorded on to any computer!
@@jimmyfranklin thanks! I got an ASUS netbook which I'll use an external hard drive to extract the songs and save them that way until I upgrade my desktop soon
So I'm assuming that if you don't want to record you could just plug this into an amps aux input right?
It’s technically a headphone amp! So it has an 8th inch jack for headphones to plug in! You could probably plug that into an aux of some sort??
@@jimmyfranklin I just figured that out since it was delivered yesterday and it works great plugged into an amp that has a 1/8 inch aux input jack. I can also plug the usb-c into a computer but am having a hard time finding software for looping...
do you think this will be a standard for every home studio??
I am not sure! i CAN say that for someone JUST getting into recording, this is an absolute must.
How does it compare to the mighty plug from Nux
People ask me this all the time... im not as familiar with it.. i will tell you that since this is a fender product the fender sounds sound amazing and convincing. im sure the nux has its own perks but im pleased with the tones im getting here

@@musik4life24 I have to! i just haven't gotten one yet! MAYBE I WILL! thanks!
@@jimmyfranklin cheers from Austria;)
Would I be able to play this thru a sound bar
Im confused by this comment.. what kind of sound bar???
@@jimmyfranklin like a tv sound bar for a home theater

Does the micro fit into a Strandberg?
will it work with bluetooth headphones instead of wired headphones?
No, the bluetooth function is for streaming into the Mustang micro. I use a pair of wired Beyerdynamic DT 240 over the ear headphones and the Mustang micro sounds great with it.
They raised the price to $119.99
Thanks for your review! Sounds pretty awesome :)

For bass guitar is ok?
i actually havent tried it...but i think it is!
Yep there’s other videos with people playing bass through it. Sounds fine
price went up
They are nice even though it's 99 dollars the last time I checked it out but I don't need one!
