Is Fender shipping these yet? Can't find em at music outlets except for one place that had them for $21.99 but they were "out of stock" which can mean they're not out yet.

They don't even have covers for the I or II yet so I wouldn't hold your breath...

There was a thread months ago on this issue and Loren said there would be some information coming but so far nada...

Thanks, Bob. Anybody come up with a good make-do yet? I know my old BJ cover works fine on my MII. But the MIII is a couple of inches wider.

And you save $55! A little steep for my taste, I think I'll get one of those $16 covers on Amazon for a similar sized amp and make do. The DRRI cover is the right idea.

I purchased a Protec cover for my Mustang IV. It fits pretty well. Here's a link to the one I got. You can also get other sizes from this site. It seems weird to go to an online shoe store to get an amp cover, but they have some decent prices.

Studio Slips has them in stock for $45, but I resent $11.50 shipping PLUS $5 in tax. Free shipping and no tax is what's going to happen when Fender finally makes their own covers and sells them through MF/etc. I can wait.

The $45.00 Studio Slips cover is for a non-padded nylon canvas cover. They charge $75.00 for a padded nylon canvas Mustang III cover. If you want either cover in brown, they add $5.00 to the price. Wow!

Height: 17.5", Width: 22.5", Depth: 10.25" PC Cover
20.5W x 10.8D x 17.8H inches MIII

Yeah, that's the best match yet, good call! The over-width of the cover allows for the slight extra depth of the amp and the height's good. Sure beats $55!

Amazon has it for about $20. Trick is to get it w/free shipping and no tax.

UPDATE: I went Amazon--$19 plus $5 shipping, no tax. $23.44 delivered ain't bad. It's a discontinued item so good to go now.

Got my PC cover from Amazon, it's just a bit loose but works fine, looks great.
