I got a Bassbreaker 15 combo, really like what Fender is doing here. Things that I like:
1. Good overdrive tones with the preamp distortion, selectable gain levels, and master volume
2. Line Out and Power Mute

However, the cabinet emulation does not sound good. Plugging it into my focusrite USB interface, it has a lot of high end buzz, it doesn't sound like it is rolling off enough highs. So I will have to run it through another hardware cab sim, or use an IR in my DAW.
It is nice that it does have a direct line out, which many amps don't have, so that is still a bonus, it is just not plug and play like I was hoping. With so many people doing home recording now, I see this as an important feature on modern amps. Also a USB output would be nice, some amps are starting to build this in too. But I will be happy with a good sounding cab sim DI out. Fender, please fix this and I will be the new version.

Also, the blinking on the Jewel light is very annoying when in mute mode. I like the modern spin on the jewel light by making it white instead of red. So maybe you could just change the color of the light when muted instead blinking.
