- This guide should get you started in making the most of this amplifier and in accessing the free software.
Fender fuse is now discontinued and Fender have done their best to bury it in spite of compatible amps still being on sale but here is a link to the software I have provided for you myself.

If the link stops working let me know. Guitar amps are not phones. You don't need to buy a new one a minimum of every two years.

Thanks for the review. Very helpful. Getting this amp to go with my son's first electric guitar.
You're getting some great tones out of the amp........most videos I've seen on the original Mustangs don't do them justice, but your videos do.
Thanks for taking the time to make this video and do it right! Much appreciated
Brilliant review. Unfortunately Fender have discontinued access to all this software. Just found out that they stopped supporting all this software nearly a year before I got this amp. Lovely people!
Read the description and watch this ruclips.net/video/BJxybv9v8wQ/видео.html and this
ruclips.net/video/iYBTUMJcYsg/видео.html
And its only $180 Canadian. Darn I wish I had stuff like this when I started playing 40 odd years ago. Great video!
I got it for $100 CAD at a pawn shop a couple years back. Bloody amazing little amp for the money and I still haven't even gotten in to use the Fuse software. Think it is finally time I unlock this baby's full potential.
This is really cool. I've had this amp for almost 2 years and I had no idea it was this powerful.
Does this amp have built in backing tracks to play over, without using a laptop etc? Thanks :)
I'm afraid not. It does have an aux socket though and will work with a looper.
@@Mindboggle100 You used to be able to download backing tracks from Fender for these Mustangs, as FUSE shows the controls for the backing tracks. Fender has taken them down, which has a lot of people upset. I'd like to know who has these backing tracks now.
If I'm understanding it, there were some memory cards that you could purchase with actual song arrangments from book stores etc. Yea FUSE was pulled completely too, althogh there are still downloads on the internet. I had a GDEC amp, the model before the Mustang that has a lot of MIDI backing tracks if you are intereted in most styles, complete;y "built in|", you would need to hear it on YOutube to know if sounds good to you!?
@@Mindboggle100 Sure, I'm definitely interested. I wondered if the GDEC music tracks worked on the Mustangs too.
Very nicely done. I wish there was a comprehensive review this good when they first came out. I've had my Mustang I for a few years now and I notice that most of the videos I see on You Tube show this amp sounding on the tinny side. When adjusted properly, they have a much better bottom end and sound much fuller than just about every demo view I've seen with them. Granted, most of the people who do demo's are usually just trying them out and don't actually own one, and if they do own , haven't spent much time with it. Of course the best way to dial it in , is to use the basic amp models without all the effects.
Thank you for taking the time to produce this wonderful video! It cleared up a few questions that I had about this specific Fender Amp! Cheers!
Thank you Lord Vadar!
Your voice sounds great thru headphones. Straight asmr lol. Thanks for the overview. Thinking of picking one of these or perhaps a vox vt20x. Maybe I should get both 😅
Thanks, shows me what my little amp is capable of. Fender Fuse working no problem.
Thank you very much...this is going to save me a fortune in pedals....evil distortion is where it's at!!!
really good demo. Could listen to your voice for hours!! Just ordered amp from guitarguitar
thank you, no other video was explaining the tuner.
Thanks for you review. I ordered one just now.
This is a great video, thank you!
Thank you for information......
Thanks for the demo man! Much appreciated!
Aaaaaaahhh!!!...…...11:50......that's utterly terrifying Hahaha
This was such a great video - super helpful. Thanks!
Thanks, I really appreciate that. It took a whole day to make. Have you purchased a mustang 1v2?
ur voice is cool man
I downloaded the Fender Fuse software using the link provided above. When I try to get it to install on my Mac, it says no app available. Is there a Mac version available? Thanks
hello, I downloaded the fender fuse app on computer and plugged in my mustang 1 amp, but it says no amp connected? I rebooted my computer and it still said no amp connected. Is there something im missing?
Thanks great vid👍👍
thanks a lot for the guidance..! that was helpful... one question though, if i am playing a drum backing track via my ipod into the aux input of the amp, will the usb recording catch both my playing(guitar) along with the backing track or just the guitar?
No. Its just records the guitar if you do that. However if your plugged into a windows or mac via USB and also plug a 3.5mm audio cable into the aux of the amp coming from the computer then play the track in audacity as you record your guitar as well then you get playback of your drum or backing track with your guitar as well. If you would like a tutorial for that putting on the channel. I will do so as soon as possible.
That actually sounds really great. What guitars were you using?
Believe it or not it was a 2006ish cruiser by crafter st120 with rosewood neck. Got it a few years ago from a pawn shop. The only part I've had to replace is the jack socket. Not bad for £60
@@Steventwangs Awesome thanks! I think this is actually just what I am looking for in a hobby home recording solution. I was messing about with digital amps and software many many years ago and did not like it. This actually sounds really good and it looks very easy to use. Great demonstration, this is exactly what I was looking for in a demo video.
Steven twangs I’m a beginner but I just got it today and there is a lot of static noise. Do you know how to turn that down to not hear it at all. I’m using a squire Strat
Блин) не ожидал услышать такой голос))

You can still download it and install it but Fender themselves don't support it or update it but it still works just the same 😉
Cheers, mate! I was interested in the Marshall MG15 but they didn't have any in stock. After watching the demo video from PMTVUK I ordered the Mustang V2, but was a bit worried when I read Fender aren't supporting it anymore. I'm definitely going to check out some more of your videos when the amp gets here and I can have some hands on with it.
Hi Steven, do you know where I might download the fender fuse app for mac now that the software isn't on the fender website anymore?
There is a link somewhere in the comments that has been vouched as working but have not been able to test it myself
My amp is making a buzzing/static noise & it doesn’t work when I plug my guitar in. I thought it was the cord connecting them but I bought a new one & it still doesn’t work. Has anyone had the same problem?
Amazing video. Very helpful demo. I am using Reaper64 on Mac to record my guitar playing. Initially, there was noticeable lag but after tweaking the buffer settings a bit, there is almost no delay provided there's only one track armed in Reaper. When more than one track is enabled, there's quite a bit delay. Is it just me or is it a common issue?
It doesn't seem to play well with a DAW but it will do it as long as you don't push it too much. Where it shines is fender fuse. I tend to record using audacity and then import the track into my DAW.
I ordered this amp a couple of days ago, and now, after doing a bit more research, it looks like fuse is gone. I got it downloaded from the link in the description, but am not sure if things will work when I get the amp. Do you reckon I'd still be able to register the amp on fender and get the ableton and amplitube stuff? Is it also possible to use the amp with just amplitube, without fuse?
I'm not knowledgeable about amps, just wanna chug some metal during free time and learn how to play guitar better. Been doing research on the amps, but it's got overwhelming since I found out fuse is done after ordering my amp. I'm glad I stumbled upon your video and am pleased to see that even though Fender are not doing much to help us out, there are still users that help out each other. Cheers \m/
ruclips.net/video/BJxybv9v8wQ/видео.html
My latest video should answer all your questions. I reinstalled it a few days ago and it works fine 😛🎸
@@Steventwangs ah hell yeah! thank you very much!
It will do amplitube just about ok but it's greatest strength is Fender fuse. I am going to continue to use this amp and share all I learn. I just got the footswitch and will do a video on it once I've worked it all out. If you need fender fuse there is a link in the description and from what I gather Ableton are happy to give a serial in exchange for the serial on these amps.
@@Steventwangs I downloaded fender fuse from the link provided(THANKS!) but it does not say my amp is connected
@@jordanshaw5830 Does it work ?
In 2020 Microsoft Silverlight will no longer be supported which is essential for Fender Fuse. Fender is no longer supporting Fender Fuse which is a shame! They should be rewriting the software! How long will you be able to keep using Fender Fuse?
Just because it is not supported after that doesn't mean it won't work. Make sure you have a copy of the latest version before support stops. Admittedly it does have a somewhat limited lifespan because of this but should still last a few years. For this reason I am considering going all analogue. I have tweeted at fender and asked them to reconsider and told them how people are still buying these amps @steventwangs maybe futile but I can only ask.
@@Steventwangs I did just that! Downloaded the latest version of Silverlight and Fender Fuse and stored it on my NAS. It still works great on my Windows 10 PC. Not planning on replacing my Fender Mustang amp. By the way, check out the Andrwoid Remuda app. Works great!
Thank you for this video. I've been using the Mustang 1 v2 for several years but have had on point of interest I don't understand. The Amber bank is factory presets and "can only be modified using Fender Fuse". When using an Amber bank, I can make changes without Fuse i.e. treble, mod, reverb etc. and all the effects. What am I missing? Would appreciate any explanation just to have a better understanding of the amp. Thank you.
I can't promise it will work but if you install fender fuse and do the firmware update then it may help
Should i go for this or VOX vt20x?
Hello, nice video! Just a quick, maybe silly question, what if I just wanna use distortion like in any other amp, since I don't see a distortion on/off switch, Do I just turn the volume up? Thanks!
There isn't a clean channel as such. You can get one by using the Vox model amp and turning the gain down. There are a few different distortion pedals to choose from on fender fuse, you don't have to turn the volume up full to get distortion like in the old days. You can have insane metal distortion at low volume if you really want. Hope this helps. Also if you need fender fuse check the description.
im having a hard time getting the guitar to play through the computer using fender fuse, the tuner is working.
any suggestions? mustang 5 v2
Im afraid its not supposed to play through the computer. You just use the computer to access fender fuse. If you want to use the computer then you can use the amp as a USB interface for amplitube custom shop. Get the cleanest most neutral tone you can first and turn your master volume all the way down to do this.
@@Steventwangs thanks steven, I think I read something about using an output from the headphones to the computer microphone?
I dont have the cabinet with me where I'm living right now so just trying to find a way to play using computer speakers
A buddy of mine uses something like this and it works OK www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07TYSY4RQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_FpNwFbBJXPNK0
Is fender fuse still able to be downloaded? My laptop keeps saying that it’s not longer supported. Great video tho!
Yes it is
@@bonehunter0316 where do you download it
Thanks for the tips! I just bought this puppy and Guitar Center but I didn't get the manual or USB cable. It uses just a standard USB, correct? I also wouldn't have known to register it to get my programs! Cheers!
Looks like USB 2.0 to mini USB B.
@@Steventwangs Thanks again, sir!
Do i still need that code from behind if i wanna use the software ? Can i make it so i can hear it only in my pc ? Also can i have some pedals to make it sound like math rock in software and hear it in my amp and pc?
Read the description. Theres a onedrive link to fender fuse. You can hear it from the pc if you use amplitube custom shop You can have the amp play through the Pc in a round about way using the line in. I have tried real pedals with it and so far the only one to respond well is the ibanez tube screamer. Yes there are plenty of virtual pedals on the software.
No more Fuse ?
I'm going to get one of these because my frontman 10g decided it had enough and just quit
Hey there!
Do you know how can I get my copy of Ableton Live now that the Fender Fuse page is no longer available? Thank you for this video.
Sorry, as Fender is trying to bury Fender fuse you won't be able to register for the license code on there. Maybe I'll have to do a video on a reputable free DAW.
@@Steventwangs No problem!
Thanks for the quick answer.
REAPER is a good "free" DAW.
Very customizable.
I was just very curious about trying Ableton.
But your video was very useful anyway!
Already solved!.
Visited the Ableton's "Request a serial" page and sent them a photo of the amp.
They sent me an email with the serial number.
What an excellent service.
I leave this comment in case someone else needs it.
It is still possible!
This is fantastic news 😁 If you wanna share the please comment with URL.
Thanks for the info, I'll put it in the description
I CAN’T CUSTOMIZE MY PRESETS, THE WEBSITE DOESN’T WORK TO HAVE MORE PRESETS IT SEEMS THAT IT GOT DELETED PLEASE ANSWER!!!
Check the description. You can now only use fender fuse to create your own presets. Also, watch this ruclips.net/video/BJxybv9v8wQ/видео.html
Fender has discontinued the Fender FUSE, do you have any idea how I could download it for a mac? Please let me know! Thanks a lot!
I will do what I can and get back to you in the next few hours but I suspect this is one for the fender message boards.
www.fmicassets.com/fender/support/software/fender_software/fender_fuse/mac/FenderFUSE_FULL_2.7.1.dmg
Check the third message down. No guarantees and I don't have a Mac so I can't vouch for its authenticity, I would do a backup first just in case. If you do use it and it works and is malware free could you let me know please?
@@Steventwangs I tried this software earlier but my Mac is rejecting and blocking plugins after the software is installed and running. Has anyone on this board had any luck since Fender have taken away support??
Maybe try turning off any antivirus. It could be that your version of mac is too recent to run it. From what I gather it seems happiest on snow leopard. I dont have a mac so will be unable to do any testing I'm afraid. If you reply with the error message verbatim I will see what I can find out though ;-)
@@Steventwangs Thanks I'll keep plugging away and post a reply if I have any luck. If I dusted off an old windows laptop do you think I'd have any luck?
After registering how do i get acces to ableton and all that?
help.ableton.com/hc/en-us/articles/209775685-Get-a-Live-Lite-serial- this could be the place for ableton, can't make any promises. Looks like I won't get any joy from Fender on the Fender collection on Amplitube custom shop. However you can still use Fender custom shop, some free stuff on there that's not bad 😀

Is it still working??@@Steventwangs
@@mattblaize yep, use it all the time
@@Steventwangs ahh that's great, hopefully it works in my Linux.
@@mattblaize ruclips.net/video/zunN9lFPhhA/видео.htmlsi=eR1DMxmYJndFI_4f check out the remuda app
Might be a stupid question but can I play quiet enough with this amp when needed? By that I mean not disturbing the shit out of people living with me. So basically is it a good bedroom amp :)?
You can. I do it all the time. Bare in mind though. It does have a headphone socket so really you could play like you're Pete Townshend and no one would know.
@@Steventwangs Thanks for such a quick answer! At present I'm wondering whether I should order this amp or the VOX VT20x. Do you happen to have any experience with the latter?
I do not have any experience with the latter I'm afraid. Fender seem to have done their best to bury the fender fuse software so I'm just looking for a secure way to share my copy that I still have the installer for. I expected better from fender considering its still on sale. For this reason my next amp will be old school analogue.
What's the USB-tyoe of the amp?
Looks like USB 2.0 to mini USB B.
No tiene subtítulos en español... Y no me entero de nada.. 🥴 🥴 🥴
Fender FUSE is still available?
ruclips.net/video/BJxybv9v8wQ/видео.html not from fender. Watch this ;-)
is't still good using the fender fuse?
Still works just fine and has plenty of range for tones
@@Steventwangs do you have the link on where to download the app?
They have withdrawn it and made like its impossible to download. I will look for another link and post it later 😠
I can't find a guaranteed legitimate copy online but luckily I still have the installer on my laptop. I'll figure out a way to share it so anyone who needs it can access it.
@@Steventwangs did you find a way to share it? cant download it any more
I don't think you can download fuse anymore. I tried your link.
I'll generate another one tonight 😉
@@Steventwangs thank you I do have it on my laptop, I was asking for a friend. I will share the new link. I found you need fuse if you want a clean tone, all of the presets seem to be heavy on effects and distortion.
1drv.ms/u/s!AumKRd5y6E5TeSgRBYCLuYMKjDM try this. Yes getting a clean tone is a case of experimentation. Try using a vox style amp model and turning eq down to 2 or 3 with minimal gain 🤔
can i sit on top of this amp?
Buttons are on top so I wouldn't.
@@Steventwangs xD i bought this amp today after watching your demo/review, cheers
Then you gotta watch this too ruclips.net/video/BJxybv9v8wQ/видео.html
Microsoft has discontinued Silverlight for any Apple product. Oh well, I didn't need the software anyway.
8:30 Symptom of the Universe?
In standard tuning 😮
Please read me a bedtime story
Check "forums.fender.com/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=116859 " , Fender Fuse no longer supported by fender .
Yes, it appears that after selling a heck of a lot of mustang 1 v2 amps that fender no longer supports the fender fuse app it self. That doesn't mean that the guitar community won't support you. I currently have plans to share some of my presets with all 13 of you in the near future and show you how to load them onto your mustang memory banks.
That is the worst sounding chorus I’ve ever heard 😂
