Just wondering if you get the same tone from the II as the three? I've played the III before i knew of the issues with it and liked the clean tones of it and some of the presets. Thinking of getting the II but never got to play it. Also i am thinking of perhaps the superchamp xd anyone play them both? Thoughts? Thanks for any help.

The Mustang II and the Mustang III have the exact same computer digital effects pre-amp processor, so yes, they have the same tones.

However, the 12" speaker in each one is DIFFERENT, and that will affect the sound comming out through it slightly.

Also, you're getting a 60-watt drop in output power, which isn't much as far as SS amps go, but you're going from small gig/venue to mic'd at a club.

I have the Mustang II and the Mustang V + V412 cabinet. Sounds are almost exactly the same, but the M5 has more trouser-flapping power due to having 4-speakers. The M5 has 37.5-watts (150/4 = 37.5) of power available for each speaker, where as the M2 has 40-watts for its ONE speaker. But the V412 has 4 speakers, and moves a lot more air.

The M3 has 100-watts for its one 12" speaker, so it would be noticeably louder.
