Fender Mustang GT 40 Product Overview by GAK

Hailed as "Perfect for your tabletop or recording desk", the Mustang GT40 from fender illustrates their ability to continually mould new and exciting digital amps with forward-thinking applications.

This 40-watt amp with two 6.5" Fender Special Design speakers, boasts an expanded selection of amp and effect models, advanced features such as an onboard chromatic tuner, Blue-tooth wireless audio, Wi-Fi connectivity and integration with the exclusive Fender Tone App. Innovation born from seventy years of industry experience.

Straight out the box, you will see an impressive front panel layout including five control knobs (gain, volume, treble, bass, master), an ultra-clear LCD backlit colour display illustrating clear amp and effect settings at a glance. Furthermore, the neighbouring encoder dial and three soft-touch keys group together nicely to create a highly intuitive interface that allows for easy navigation.

With the Mustang GT40, Fender has fine-tuned and upgraded their already highly-praised models and effects with increased realism, emulating with precision classic Fender amps such as the 65 Deluxe. A huge amount of new CompressorsChorus, Pitch shifters, Reverbs and more are built in the GT40.  


Construct your own unique sounds step by step or explore the hugely diverse range of presets both genre and artist-specific, crafted lovingly by the artists themselves, respected players such as Dave Depper (Death Cab For Cutie), Gary Clark Jr., Warren DeMartini and many more.

No other digital amp before the Mustang GT has boasted Wi-Fi connectivity, allowing you to access the latest firmware, updates and artist-created presets beamed directly to your amp.

Where Fender's Mustang GT range really comes into its own is with the exclusive Fender 'Tone App', a huge innovation in digital amp customisation and portability. Get to grips with the tone app's interface with ease as you navigate a vast array of presets, remotely control your amp and make adjustments to presets and custom setups to intuitively edit your sound at your fingertips. Additionally, join the Fender users community via Fender Digital to learn new techniques, get the latest news and updates plus share presets with others.

If a larger size amp is a consideration, the Mustang GT range includes both a 100 and 200 watt alternative with some additional features and applications.

I spent ages reading reviews of practice amps before chosing the GT 40. Very pleased with it, great sound and functionality - ideal for home use.

Works like a charm, ideal practice amp, fantastic to learn about gear and tones before spending huge sums on specific kit.

The Mustang GT40 is a great product for the money. Superb clean sounds, great app, bludetooth streaming for backing tracks. I couldn't get the dirtier tones to sound as good as I wanted them too, but everything else if very good indeed.

Great amp for a dedicated beginner. For practice, learning or just using as a home practice amp, this is excellent. Love the fact that you can simply select presets on either the amp or using the app, and it adjusts to give you the sound you want, imitating a range of classic amps and pedals. Sure, it's never going to be right for a gigging professional, but if you want something simple to use that delivers a great sound for your cash, this is it.
