[Bobcoolest]

I started getting electrocuted when I'm playing my guitar with this amp.

Looks like it started electrocuting me after I plugged it into my computer...

[subzero6191]

can u connect an electic acoustic guitar to do this ??

[vanzeposmith910]

Is it also good for Pink FLoyd?

[vanzeposmith910]

This amp looks great, but is it good (or great?) with blues (B.B. King, Eric Clapton) up to some rock (Chuck Berry, Led Zeppelin), and finally to stuff like BLack Sabbath and MEgadeth? I play a Les Paul and it sounds good on this little 15w Starcaster, but I'm playing some bigger gigs and I need a good 40 watt amp with good bluesey sounds up to metal. Any suggestions?

[Nickpatient]

@vanzeposmith910 Get something with tubes. :D

[Oikeusmurha]

sounds a little bit like Machine Gun. :D

[RandomGuitarist96]

I prefer the G-DEC to this, anyone else think so too? The backing tracks on it are sweet ;p

[ravenshield56]

I used this amp at Dawsons when I bought my Squier classic vibe tele, It was the mustag 4, quite a big one, but then some faggot bought it when I was playing it :(

[themanchild27]

@ravenshield56 the guy who bought it probably tells the story about some faggot who was playing it when he was trying to buy it

[JorgeGuitarJaming]

nice amps 

[SmalllPomme]

Peut-on jouer sur cette ampli avec une guitare Electro-Acoustique (Takamine EG-440-SC Série G) merci de me répondre sur smalllpomme-65@hotmail.fr ou sur Facebook a Killian Herbreteau

[101Sizlack]

What do the Green, Amber And red mean for the the models?

[zaragoah]

@101Sizlack

Green:Low Gain

Amber:Medium Gain

Red:Hi Gain

[PimpMidStyle]

@zaragoah you're wrong

[zaragoah]

@PimpMidStyle Thats the thing which my guitar teacher said to me. :/

[PimpMidStyle]

@zaragoah amber presets are the presets you cannot overwrite and other two (red and green, i think) are the ones you can overwrite

[PimpMidStyle]

@zaragoah I mean, i think so:D I'll get this amp today, so I will correct my self if I'm wrong

[Thazzmaname]

sure a very cool amp for the price, but mic'ing it with TWO mics and assumingly mixing and optimizing those two signals afterwards sure makes it sound bigger than it actually does live in the room. In the days when you went to your local music shop to get equipment, this wouldn't have been a problem. But nowadays, that people buy their stuff online without testing it themselves, it's borderline, really.

[MrSadomax]

I own mustang 1, amazing amp. With my Les Paul and Strat - sounds very good.

[thelpfen]

@MrSadomax so it's a good amp

[00ASSASSINATION]

can ani1 tell me if this is a good amp for an intermediate player

or should i just go with a marshall MG series?

[oJinxx]

@00ASSASSINATION this is a GREAT amp, regardless of playing skill.

The MG series is trash, the mustang would be a great choice, IMO.

[HKDrider]

@00ASSASSINATION the MG series is garbage.

[Danklin24]

@IAMDEWYZE I would go with this one if it doesnt have the annoyances i just asked about in this thread. The Spider III 15w amp is hated by many because its almost impossible to achieve a clean tone without a lot of tweaking. Im hoping this amp is different and defaults to what it was last set for rather than defaulting to an effect like the Spider III 15W

[gerbilho]

@Danklin24 You can get clean tones easily with this amp. The best on this amp are the clean tones. And yes it does default to the presets if you don't save your changes! Saving changes only requires touching the save button so once it's saved you'll be ok it will allways go back to your edited preset.

Hope this helps, it's a good amp for the price.

[Danklin24]

Can anyone tell me if this amp has any annoyances like the Spider III 15W amp where it always defaults to an effect when you turn it on? I hated that amp because it was nearly impossible to get a clean tone

[jbcarpio]

i need some help, i cant figure out the preset for the distortion that sounds like the distortion of the song "swing swing" by "all american rejects"

[wtmhippie]

what are the presets

[MrNate0620]

I MUST HAVE ONE

[renegadepoptard]

fiesta red is my favorite fender color

[madsaddeussen]

ahhhh..thats funny guy from the car.....nice job bro.......

[harlesslee]

Is this thing as thin as it sounds on here? way too shrill and icepicky. does it have any bottom end? how about volume for gigging? no one's saying anything about that, even when directly asked. tel us about the practicality of this amp? can we use it for gigging or is this a novelty amp?

[eduf93]

@harlesslee I've already did some rehearsals with the Mustang I and i noticed it is pretty loud, if you want it for small gigs I guess it may be enghough. About praticallity i cannot say nothin cause i dont know what you mean with that =D, and yes it's quite icepicy, quite thin sounding, but it depends on the setting and on the intensity of that setting once you have 3 "different intensitys" for each setting. Sorry for my english, but i hope i've helped.

[Ustinkdave]

Damon Chivers looks alittle bit like Monte Montgomery an amazing guitar player..

[Amnesiam]

Hey, do you usually mix the guitar sound you record, or is it direct? Nice vid, Rob!

[FatMaro]

nothing like an out of tune stratocaster

[superlou1s]

@FatMaro- is there any other kind?

[ronspeck]

2:10 I recognize the song from my childhood... what is the song guys?.... I feel like I should know this one. Also great video chappers!

[ColmIncendinall]

@ronspeck Every Breath you take

[jacktheguitarman]

what color is that strat?

[Maarliecore]

@jacktheguitarman red

[jacktheguitarman]

@Maarliecore theres like a bunch of sifferent kinds of red strats im no dumbass

[Maarliecore]

@jacktheguitarman I know, was just joking :p

[SlayerPagey]

Thanks for reducing the Andertons intro time at the start Chappers :)

[mashafasha5]

It sounds....really bad...

[chadewatson]

@jburke5 -ahhh! thats it!!! i was stuck on it!

[chadewatson]

@ 2:10 i know thats a song, but i cant figure out what! anyone else know? it seems so familiar!

[ZaphodBeeblebrox65]

Good vid as usual but I do have to question the "modal" note choice there, for implying a more 'dorian' tonality the 5th fret of the B string would have been a much better choice (i.e. the major 6th), the 2nd doesn't imply dorian at all, it's just another scale tone from the parent G minor scale.

[nihility666]

@ZaphodBeeblebrox65 while its true that the major6th is what sets dorian apart from other minor scales. Dorian and melodic minor are the main minor scales associated with blues and jazz. This is why he probably refers to anything outside of pentatonic as a dorian/mixolydian sound

[hawg427]

Looks like a nice little bedroom amp. That was a sweet Telecaster you started off the video playing. USA or MIM? Great color, is that what Fender calls Butterscotch?

[leopower7]

Why don't you make anymore lessons, rob?

All you do now is advertise for the shop you work for...

[BostonWidowers]

just bought a new one of these babes the mustang II what were settings damon was using on the first thing he played :) if you remember ;)

[LawFirmJBC]

Hi Rob here's something I always wondered. Is your last name Chappers or Chapman? You seem to use both and I've always been curious.

[rgjmce666]

@LawFirmJBC it's Chapman

[Shallabaiser]

I can't believe this amp has such a great sound! Terrific!

Oh and great playing also (:

[andy474x]

not really one for built in effects, but the straight up clean sounds on that are surprisingly good

[davemis40]

Fantastic sound for such a small cheap amp.

Chappers .. is this the same amp you demoed with rock/metal tones or is this a different Mustang aimed at blues/rock ?

[SoundDoomed]

@davemis40 It's the same...

[riseofthefallen301]

@9b5as and you, my friend, win the prize for stupidest question yet

[DeadWhiteButterflies]

I was hoping for a Mustang guitar :(

Nice amp though.

[biglou250]

Fender really hit one out of the park with this amp at this price point.

[suihkubad]

micro cube all the way

[NickoTheGuitarist]

Nice modelling amp :D sounds good, awesome playing too!

[joeyrotten101]

He looks like the guy from world guitars! I wish you still did videos for him, what a guy!

[RobChappers]

@joeyrotten101 This is Damon Chivers the UK fender Demo dude ;-)

[joeyrotten101]

@RobChappers Yes hes a good player!

[guitarprism]

@RobChappers Hey Rob, between the cube xl and the fender mustang, if stuck on a desert island that magically had electricity which one would you carve a hole in and use as an amp whore. I value your simian opinion. Thks

[WedlakeProductions]

@guitarprism I am in the same position as you. I watched chappers 'Practice Amp Shootout' video and the Mustang came out on top. Also played both of them. Im going with the Mustang II. Getting it next week!

[guitarprism]

@WedlakeProductions May all your musical dream's come true. For a example of what a guitar in the proper hand's are capable of check out Jimi Hendrix, 'Driving south' From the bbc session's. It's a guaranteed jaw-dropper. Have fun with the amp. Ohh by the way, if you value a good fun, informative read check out ' how to be idle' by Tom Hodgekinson, I believe he's a fellow countryman of your's, and a hero of mine. Peace & prop's-!!

[leepetersonuk]

quite impressed with that Fender

[Telecaster132]

Anybody know the song at 2.11ish? its really annoying me now lol!

[lrac]

@Telecaster132 Sting - every breath you take : )

[GuitarAssassin2]

@Telecaster132 The Police - Every Breath You Take

[RS358]

@Telecaster132 The Police - I'll Be Watching You I think....

[EJRocky]

That amp sounds absolutely mega for the price.

Speaking of budget gear, what are your thoughts on Squier Classic Vibe guitars? I've heard they're immense.

Rock on Rob ;)

[damadstuntman]

Guy is a very good player. Nice sound and tasty playing Oi!

[viniguitarjazz]

VERY GOOD !

[KarlToth]

First yay.

[lurima52511]

@KarlToth Good job
