I own the Fender Mustang one, I was shocked at how good it sounds when I got it, I couldn't believe I was getting those types of tones from a little headphone amp, well worth the money IMO.
Are guitar headphone amp, stereo?
@@JitinMisra Yes, you get stereo effects on the mustang at least. Very pleasant. It's also a pretty high quality BT headphone amp in general although you can only EQ from the device you're streaming from. I was shocked how nice it sounded and how well it can drive even higher impedance headphones. With a pair of Senn HD599 (50 ohms) I cannot even turn the volume up halfway - and those are open backs! Which is a good thing, too, since it means more battery life as well. I would imagine (but cannot test that, perhaps someone else can chime in) that it's powerful enough to drive 250ohms closed backs, not to mention the usual 32ohms many/most overear headphones.
Do you need headphones? Can't you use it without?
Judging by the sounds we got in this video, sure you have tweak ability but the nux sounded like what you would expect from something like this where as the fender actually sounded like an amp. Just from what I heard in this video.
A lot of commenters are mentioning the ease of plug-and-play with the Fender and not having to use an app on a separate device as with the Nu-x. But even with the Nu-x, once you tweak your "Clean, Overdrive and Distortion" channels on the app and get the sounds you like, you can simply toggle through those 3 channels easily with the button on the device, as you play alone or play along to a backing track on youtube via bluetooth. Just pointing this out.
Can you please explain how to connect the NuX to a computer so I can play along with some backing tracks from youtube?
@@jlunddk I’m not sure you can do it with a computer. The TH-cam backing tracks have to be sent to the Nu-x by Bluetooth. If you have a smart phone or tablet, you go to settings, select Bluetooth, and add the Nu-x Mighty Plug. Then you’ll be able to hear backing tracks from TH-cam (played on your phone or tablet) as well as your guitar, through headphones plugged into the Nu-x. Good luck.
@@jlunddk Bluetooth bro
Sure and then if you need to adjust the volume?
@@Stealther that’s true, the master vol knob on the Fender is a big plus. With the Nu-x it’s always helpful to have you phone or tablet nearby to make adjustments. But I also find it frustrating that fie some of the presets on the Fender, you can’t adjust delay time or delay mix.
If you're just comparing presets the nu-x is likely to come off worse. This is because the Fender is designed to be preset, and Fender have put a lot of work into getting the defaults to sound great. The nu-x gives you more scope to create your own tones, with the downside that the default presets are not necessarily great.
The conclusion is spot on, though
A helix then
I would go with the Fender Micro Mustang. The Fender just sounded more open and bigger with the overdrive, distortion and chorus, delay, tremolo and reverb. The clean tones sounded more similar to me. I’m getting into playing guitar and I think these are great devices to really help you practice and jam privately. Great video, RJ!!!!!🙌🔥🙌🔥🙌🔥
I'd also put the lack of an app and endless tweaking as a bonus for the Fender. Every minute you spend tweaking tones is a minute you're stealing from your practice.
I did think the overdriven lead tone had a nicer flow and squash on the NUX, but in all honesty Fender does also have a five EQ preset bank where you can quickly get the bias you're looking for. Also having the unit not "tie-in"/compress your playing that much helps you realize and correct sloppiness, which is one of the main points of practicing stuff.
I'm surprised just how good each of these were. Both are great practice options-especially for travel.
I think the Fender one sounded much better. I was really hoping the other one would sound as good because I would love the added features.
I have the Fender one, and it works fine with bass. I keep the "amp" on direct (cyan color right before white) and sometimes clean-compressed (white). I don't really play rock, but those crunchy high gain amps sound awesome for bass as well.
I was wondering about bass on the fender and randomly came across your comment.
Thanks man!!
Both are absolute blessings in my opinion. I own both and it never came down to just keeping one and selling or returning the other. It came down to using both constantly just at different times
Great demo!! 🎸Exactly what I was looking for while I contemplate which one is the better fit for me.
I own the fender Mustang. Being older, never thought you would ever have anything that sounds so great! Very happy with all you can do with it. That sound!
Gotta Love A Mustang!
Great video thank you
A great review and top guitar playing, very helpful, thanks for the effort.
I actually got the fender Mustang micro after watching your video for it and because you actually went over everything it did,that helped me make my decision,I like the sound quality of the fender and since I just got the fender Mustang gtx50 that is plenty of tweak ability for me 😁 but honestly your honest thought is appreciated 👍👍👍👍👍
Did not expect the nux to be so decent, that's a steal. I think the older IO its a fair trade for price and editability. I'll get one of those for sure what a handy tool, could potentially output to a front of house for open mics and the like too!
A great comparison. Thank you very much for that. I bought allready the Fender, but wasn‘t shure if it was the right decision. Now I know: it doesn‘t matter. The sound I like the most (crunch) I prefere in the Fender. So I‘m O.K. with my decision.
I have an early version of the Vox Amplug and have been considering an upgrade. Thanks for this comparison. Very helpful.
Just get the vox ll versions for $39 at sweetwater ..the vox sounds the best...I use the classic rock and metal,no complaints
Just got the Mustang. I got it to practice with. Simple. Easy to use. Just right to practice with. Great review.
Great video, thanks for the comparison! Bought the Nux and I guess I got what I was looking for, regards from Argentina 🇦🇷
I'm content with the Fender Micro Mustang; I actually plug it into my pedal collection, which adds an even more depth of sounds and tones, it also beefs up the sound.
Into your pedals?
How ?
@@coboweMaybe plug the guitar into the pedals first, out the pedal(s) into the Micro Input plug :)
Finally someone to compare these two. Thank you :)
Thanks for the comparison. I liked the sound of the Fender better the NU X seemed to sound hollow at times. I suppose that could be tweaked.
After your previous video on the Fender Mustang Micro, I bought one, and I’m delighted with it. Just had a trip away and the Mustang Micro, coupled with my Traveler Pro-Series guitar, improved my time away from the home guitars. Nice one R.J!
I have the Mustang Micro, and am very happy with it. The "infinite tweakability in an app" thing isn't for me. I tried to get into amp modelers and stopped for that reason. I felt like I could never get exactly what I was after and spent my time tweaking. But that's just me.I get why other people like having that level of control over the sound. Now, hearing them both, I think the Fender sounds fuller, and richer. Great video! Thanks for posting it!
same. too many options does not work for me. I plug in. and play..
@@mykneeshurt8393 Certainly with a practice doo-dah like this, earphones and all.
I like the sound of the Fender more. Great demo of both.
The Fender sounds better; worth the extra $30.
RJ, thanks for this video!
I think i like the fender amp and distortion sounds more but the nu x effects sound great. The interface on the fender does looks a bit too simplified for my taste. Great vid as always.
To me, the raw tones of the fender were a bit more open, present and realistic compared to the Nux which seemed slightly compressed, but not by much, and makes me wonder if just a little custom tweaking of the Nux might make it sound just as good at a lower price with way more options.
Love the shirt!!!
The NuX may have had more features but the Fender sounded far better. Now you might be able to get in the app and tweak the tones with the NuX to improve the sound, but what I was hearing on the video wasn’t even close. The Fender had a much richer sound. The NuX sounded very hollow and tinny, especially on the clean settings.
This little Fender blew the NuX out of the water on any setting. On OD the NuX sounds hollow while the Fender stayed sharp and crispy. On distortion the NuX felt like I'm listening to a 240p sample. Wish Fender made app support to their amp, to allow customization. but I guess it will happen in future release. Probably keeping some tricks in their sleeve, like all tech companies today.
I thought so too, and in almost every example, the Mustang Micro had a bottom, depth and realism the NuX just didn't reach, and we have to assume R.J. spent some time shaping the NuX presets.
NuX sounds better on the high gain imo
Agree fender sound thousands times better
I bought the Fender a couple of weeks ago on the strength of reviews and I'm knocked out by the sheer quality of the sound. Very clean, no hiss or noise. Plus the audio from Bluetooth is excellent too. Personally I was looking for something simple and this fits the bill. I already waste far too much time fiddling with sound and fx with on my rig or in Logic/Garageband.
Listening to the comarison in this video, for me it's no contest. The Fender wins hands down on quality of sound, especially the fx which sounded a bit 'dirty' to me. Plus sitting there fiddling with the app is just a big no from me. The Fender I plug in, turn on the music, play the guitar (sounds a bit like Timothy Leary!) Job done.
The Fender ‘s hi-gain/overdrive sounded better than NUX’s version. The NUX’s reverb/delay sounds were pretty decent but the overall winner for me is the Micro. Very helpful shoot-out 👍🏻
The clean preamp setting on the Fender Mustang Micro can be used for bass, and I have recorded a few tracks using the guitar amp settings.
Fender’s clean was pretty darn impressive. I liked both the Nu-X’s OD and dist better. Little less crispy
Of course Fender’s trem sounded a bit better
Half of what I do every time I play is try to dial in my tones on the gear that I’m going to be playing in a group so I don’t think these little guys are for me, but I was considering the Mustang for a bit. After watching this, I’d probably go with the Nu-X
Have the Mustang. I don’t want to use my phone to control it, just takes away from the spontaneous practice/Jam session. I’m happy. Thanx RJ for all your content. Would love to see more of your Delta Blues. 🤓
With the Nu-x, once you tweak and save your clean, overdrive and distortion channels using the app on your phone, you can just play and toggle through those channels with the button on the Nu-x, without having to use your phone at all.
@@jakollee Because you never need to adjust the volume, right?
@@Stealther you’re right, the vol knob on the fender is a big plus, and with the Nu-x you do need to have your phone or tablet with the app to make adjustments for different backing tracks. Although to some extent you can use the vol knob on your guitar.
I have the Fender Mustang and I prefer the self-contained plug & play approach. I just use it for quiet practice and don't need to suck away practice time getting lost in amp/tone settings. I do enough of that with my normal rig. lol. Also, not having to grab my phone to adjust the volume is a big plus. Finally, I wouldn't be surprised if Fender comes up with an update that includes a bass amp. Fingers crossed. :-)
I have the Vox Amplug (early version) and am considering an upgrade. Totally agree with your assessment of the distraction of fancy features. Helpful observation.
@@steveg.3022 I sold my Vox Amplug after getting the Fender Mustang. :-)
@@alexanderzerka8477 The Mustang is definitely better than the Vox, but it still doesn't compare with a real rig. That said, for $99 it lets me practice quietly with a decent user experience.
I'd love to have an SVT 8x10 running on "5", and an Ampeg B15. Throw in a 60's Bassman while yer up. Would that be incredible or what?
@@alexanderzerka8477 Nice to hear about the other side of Kempers. Too many people have been describing them as the greatest invention since perforated toilet paper.
I would have like have heard a little bit of the bass on the nux and also the rhythm effects.
I have both, like both, am keeping both! Good comparison, though I think it would've been even better if you had captioned the specific amp models, effects, etc. while playing (instead of just giving the device you're using and writing, "Overdrive," or "Distortion." I agree the volume knob on the Fender is a big plus! But I'm not crazy about having to toggle through so many presets to get to the one I want. Took me a moment or two to figure out that the first time you press the little toggles on the Fender, it just "wakes it up" without advancing to the next preset. I think it's easier to get a nice edge-of-breakup cleanish rhythm sound on the Fender, but the overdrive sounds on the Nu-x are pretty awesome! Both have pluses and minues, IMO. Which one did YOU like better, RJ?
It is possible to use Backingtrack with the fender??
Regards from Portugal
@@claudiooliveira2270 yes, it has Bluetooth like the Nux, so you can link it to you phone or tablet and play along to tracks on those devices.
I have the Fender, the only drawback is you need to carry the card listing the presets. I liked the sound then, and hearing it played by someone else, I think it is a great toy.
I've been playing for years and think the Mustang produces decent tone but does a poor job of mixing the guitar signal with an incoming wifi signal (aux in) for play-along purposes. I have the black star headphone amp and while it lacks tonal variety for the guitar, the incoming auxiliary signal is much clearer and satisfying to play along with.
My VOX metal headphone amp works great for me. I put an inline volume rolling control between the headphones & the vox.
I have the NUX and love it - and I just ordered the Fender in addition... Its going on a new scalloped strat ^^
Some of the comparisons sounded very similar, but I noticed a big difference in the overdrive. The Fender sounded fuller, more open, wider EQ. The NUX sounded more tinny. I think the price on the Fender has gone up, but price is only a secondary consideration, bc even at $120, that’s a good price for the quality.
Great video but still hard to decide. One is fully programmable so you could, in theory get the same sounds as the other? So it comes down to $30?
I have the fender micro mustang and use it on guitar and bass. I like how the fender sounds and I think it sounds better than the nux. It would be nice to hear how they sound on bass
NUX for sure. I own them both and I love tweaking the sound to my taste with the NUX. The Fender sounds good but you only get what the factory programmed into it.
I have the fender mustang micro and sometimes I will back off my volume knob especially if I'm using a guitar with p90s. But if I'm getting a specific tone like maybe crunchy distortion from the fender but turning down the volume knob it's nice to compensate with the volume on the mustang micro. Hearing that the nux does not have volume control on the device is basically a deal-breaker however the other extra added features are intriguing to me and for the price why not get both.
Great vid, will USB recording work with Windows 11 on the Fender please?
I had the NUX. Going to buy another.
I keep looking at these things, but what I think I’ll do is get an interface for my phone since the one with the features I want already has me using my phone. I can either use Amplitube or GarageBand then. I think the Fender sounds nice, but I’ll end up spending about the same amount for an irig
The NuX lost me at the overdrive...sounded pretty muddy compared to the Fender, if they upgraded the firmware maybe that helped?
I think they sound great both of them. The Fender sounds a bit crispier which I like. Nux is very much worth the money. Good show R.J !!!!!
Great vid - hard to choose, did think the Fender had a fuller sound.
Do you prefer the sound quality and Amp simulations of the Nux over the Vox amplug? Thanks
There's a lot of pluses and minuses to each of these devices. And now after a price hike, the Fender one is twice the price of the NuX. Makes me wonder about other options in this space.
listening to these on my Audiophile setup for the most accurate experience and there is no comparison. The Fender sounds closer more accurate and detailed and not "muddy" at all, the NUX sounds good and maybe does need some "tweeking" to match the tonality of the fender but it wont fix the width/sound stage and clarity issues it has that the Fender doesn't. The NUX just sounds far away but not in a good wide sound stage way just muffled and unclear, regardless of the FX choice.
NUX It is!!! Thx for the video
Can I also get the audio (eg. Spotify) comes from the phone into nux?
Is it possible to use one of these two for an electric violin?
I have the NUX Mighty Plug and I was impressed enough to then go get the NUX Mighty Air (same app driven interface, but a wireless transmitter and mini amp box). I use the NUX devices at home more than my Blackstar Fly and BEAM amps.
Great comparison RJ. I think out of these 2 I would pick the Fender for ease of use and the volume knob being on the unit itself. Plus I do think the Fender sounds were a little better than the Nux.
✌🏻
Agree with most that Fender sounded better overall, but the Nux did some things better than the fender like that lead tone was really nice or you called it "distortion" . As a fender micro ownder id still conder the nux just because the price is nice, cheaper then a pedal, and its an audio interface.
it's a must to have a post parametric equalizer with these things, to patch up all the plastic feeling of a cheap digital simulation
ok but if a wanna use a different pedals, can i plug in at the out on the amp and my head phones conected to that o doesnt work like this
awesome..how are you connected for your sound..can i set up on laptop and connect to an amp for sound or monitor?
As a bass player, the NU>X is a no-brainer for me, as it has two bass settings and the Fender has none. I didn't even know about it until your video automatically came up after I started investigating the Donner Basement headphone amp. (By the way, you're an impressive guitarist.) What I'm curious about though is how you recorded the sounds for this video. Did you use a line-in, or run it through a full-size amp or put a pair of headphones over the mic you recorded this video with? I'm trying to find out how much "oomph" I can get with a headphone app when playing virtually/in cyberspace with my bandmates.
Hi is it possible with both Amps to connect via the bluetooth function to a portable speaker to get the sound of your guitar out?
Great video, thanks! I own the fender and like better the sound...But i can't record on a computer what i play.is it possible or more easy with Nux ?
I number of the Fender presets seemed to have some kind of stereo effect, while the NUX ones were mono - at least that's the impression I got. I suppose I could re-listen with headphones to be sure. I think that's why people liked the Fender more, having a difference in each channel makes the sound more lively.
I already bought the NUX but it hasn't arrived yet.
I liked the NUX's cleans much better, they sounded more full and alive. Didn't like it's overdrive and distortion that much though. May have to order one and try it out.
Is there any lag when connecting the fender via bluetooth for backing tracks?
I like the Fender more. For it's purpose, just a quick practise/play along with backing tracks or youtube vids, I like the simplicity of the Fender. No need for tweaking things on a phone, plug it in, select a combination of amps and effects..GO! If I want to tweak I'll grab my Line 6 Firehawk which app looks very similar to the one on the NUX, maybe NUX is related to Line 6?
I have the Positive Grid Spark, which has far more than the Nuk and if you need battery power, the Spark Mini is out, with all the same app features as the full size. I can't see me ever being in a situation where I couldn't take one of those because "big ass instrument." It's not exactly even a 1×12 cab. The only downside is the price difference. To me, the Fender is much simpler for short and simple practice sessions. My use would be to get away from dealing with my phone.
I would go for the Fender Mustang Micro; it sounds cleaner to me and less muffled. When I knew that I would be moving from my house to an apartment, I gave my fender and amp to my son. I will ask him to give it back and get the Fender headphone amp. And thanks for the great video.
I bought the Fender Mini. think the Fender Mini sounds better. Tremolo and Reverb sounds so nice. My understanding is you can connect your Mobile device to the Fender via Bluetooth and then you can play Backing Tracks from it.
Apples 🍎 & oranges 🍊 Both sound great !!!
I’ve been waiting for a product like this for decades and the BlueTooth makes it so easy to use !!!
It makes practicing without paraphernalia soooo simple !!!
Love the review !!!
The Fender has a better sound ovrrall. Listening to just the tremelo/reverb sold me and I don't want to depend on a computer or phone. Fender has always been about plug in and play. Thanks for posting, God bless stay safe Rock on 🙏😷🎶❗👀
To me the NuX distortion sounds were better and more articulate but the clean sounds on the fender sounded more stereo and pleasant, the NuX sounded mono. As I am more into clean sounds these days I will probably go with the Fender. Also I will most likely use this with headphones so that stereo effect will be better in that scenario too. I wonder if that stereo perception will carry over into the computer interface. My biggest problem with the Fender Mustang is that many online dealers (AMS, Sweetwater etc.) are sold out and expect more soon.
I agree Albert 100%
Agree, the distortion wasn't horrible on the fender but I think that is the only category the Nux won in. I'll probably go with the fender and then buy a Nux later when I get the itch to tweak things.
I know Nux you need bluetooth to control the app but what about audio? The Fender lets you connect to a device and listen along to lessons or shows
Hey RJ - pls do a review of the new NUX MP-3 asap…? Thanks!
how would the cheaper options like the blackstar amplug or the lekato compare?
I spent a lot of time googling and didn't see anything about the Nux. I still want them to make one designed to work with an app with more processing and more options. I was using an iRig with the amplitube app and while it's cumbersome and there are definite sound quality issues, the options for dozens of amps, cabinets, distortion, overdrive, compression, effects, where you can dial the effects with knobs like real pedals, etc, would be extremely fun on a better product.
I just bought the Mustang and it's so nice just plugging it in the guitar and playing, but messing with colored lights, and being so limited in what you can do, (the gain even on the high-gain amps isn't where I want it, there's no actual adjustment for distortion, compression, overdrive, (just different amp choices), you can't adjust the effects like the rate on the delay, etc.), isn't ideal.
I found one sound for high gain distortion that I like, and I spent the last three nights of my three day weekend smoking my medical cannabis vape and standing in my living room practicing for 5-6 hours straight and not feeling like it was work at all, just having a blast.
My preference is for the Fender. I'm not a fan of phone app tweaking, and also like the usb C connectivity Fender has. I don't need a lot of fancy FX if I'm just playing into headphones, so a couple clicks on the Fender makes sense to me. The sounds are different but both good. Fender wins this one.
Mustang Micro's Marshall 1956 Super Lead doesn't need any tweaking anyhow. The Twin with a touch of spring reverb doesn't either.
How did you record ? With a 3.5 mm jack, or with thé USB câble?
can these be used without headphones do they have a mini built in speaker?
Do they let you clean up the overdrive, with the guitar volume?
I like the NUX on almost every sound you demonstrated but the overdrive and maybe the tremolo reverb. I like the tweak ability and the features. Should have that vol knob. For all I heard and features and price I prefer the NUX. Can you save the sittings you do on the app?
yes, you can save your settings
I wonder if I can use the Mustang Micro for online live lessons, through my laptop (windows 10).
I need to ear what I'm playing through my headset without latency and my teacher should be able to ear me playing and speaking.
Is it possible? What I need to do?
Thanks for your help
Thanks for the presentation. For me Fender sounded bigger on cleans but the distortion was yack! Nux wins on distortion
I know you said the fender doesn't have bass amp models, can you still not use it with a bass though??
What are good affordable headphones for this application?
I use the mustang into my Victoria Bluetooth speaker as a mini amp.. the speaker has 2 band eq so I can dual in the sound just how I like it.. works great
Are you using a cord into the Victoria? As I understand it, both the Fender and Nu-x only have Bluetooth "in" but not "out."
@@jakollee yes.. just an aux cord.. male on both ends.. I don't know about the nux but the fender has a headphone out.. just plug it into a Bluetooth speaker rather than headphones.. works great
Hi, Can I use them with my wireless headphones?
Will these Bluetooth audio out to your Bluetooth player like a car or home stereo?
Would you still use the Fender with a bass?
Mustang micro. Can you Bluetooth the audio from the guitar straight to a Bluetooth speaker? Instead of using the 3.5mm cable connection
Can you use these headphone amps to jam along with backing tracks? in other words: can you use them to connect to your laptop and guitar simultaneously, so that you can cue up a backing track or video lesson and play along on your guitar and get both the signal from your guitar and laptop in the headphones?
NUX. I am a tele guy but the nux seems the best choice. Great vid
Does it support on Acoustic Guitar?
I have the Fender, it is ridiculously good.
So glad to see this video! It would’ve been great to have before I bought, but I was too impatient. I got the Nux because I wanted to be able to tweak a very specific sound and save it to a preset for whatever I’m working up at the time. But after watching this, I might pick up the Fender one too for when I just want to noodle rather than practice something specific. Because it seemed to sound a little better.
I too had the Nu-x first and when I saw the Fender I thought I would prefer that. Initially, I did like the Fender better, but now I find I'm returning to the Nu-x more often. Once I've gotten a little more familiar with how to tweak and save sounds on the Nu-x, I'm appreciating its versatility more. Still like the Fender though, especially for cleans and edge-of-breakup tones.
Most headphones have volume controls, so that's a non problem.
Cool post.😎🎙🎸✅
