Hello

Ive noticed on the Fender Fuse preset pages that there is a preset which imitates an acoustic guitar, and I wondered whether the Mustang 1 amplifier can be used with an acoustic with this setting? Will it ruin the amp?

Thanks

There should be no issue at all with the amp plugging in an acoustic/electric guitar.

Getting a good, natural sounding tone, that's the challange. Your'e probably going to have to tweak a little. Good luck, let us know how it turns out.

Unless I am mistaken, the acoustic guitar presets in the Fuse library - there are a few - don't actually try to emulate an acoustic guitar. What they provide is a starting set-up - amp model, eq etc - that tries to make the best of a REAL acoustic guitar if plugged in to the Mustangs.

I have tried several of these presets and really can't get a warm and natural acoustic tone that I'm happy with, especially when compared to putting the acoustic straight into the PA via DI.

YMMV

If acoustic is your main thing then I wouldn't recommend a Mustang. It may be able to get you by after some tweaking but it's not made for acoustics.
