Hi all,

I bought a Fender Mustang 3 today and just opened it up to find that it has an EU power chord.

I've never owned an amp before so I don't know if this is standard practice for Fender Amps. The shop of course is well and truly shut by now so I can't ask them but if it is what normally happens then do I need to by a transformer or is the wattage the same for the UK?

Sorry if this all seems a bit silly but when you pay that much for something you just want it to work straight away.

Thanks very much for your help.

Tom Green

It's a packaging error - same thing happened to me when I bought mine from DV247. The store immediately sent me a UK cord, but you can use any standard UK cord from a kettle or similar.

My apologies to you. Your best bet is to contact the dealer you purchased the amp from. They should be able to get you a UK power cord. They should then be able to contact Fender UK and be compensated for it.
