Hi everyone,

I recently bought 4 Mustang Minis for my melodica quartet. Being classically trained, I have no technical knowledge about amplifiers and just went around trying all the amps I could, then made a decision based on sound, price and practical considerations such as portability, battery power, etc. The Mustang Mini was by far the best in our size and price range and suited our purposes, so I decided on those.

Now it's time to start playing with the presets, but with zero amp know-how, it's hard for me to know where to start. I had some good experiences with amps made for acoustic guitars (our melodicas are all by Hammond and have inbuilt dynamic mics), so I'm just wondering: what are generally the best settings to use for acoustic instruments? What should I try first?

I see that there seem to be some people who are dead-set against using these amps acoustically, but as a general principle it seems that the melodica suffers a lot less than the acoustic guitar in this respect. Based on my fumblings until now, I believe that a good sound is possible. I'm just looking for people who could maybe share some general wisdom and set me on the right track.

Many thanks for any advice,

Brent.

Hi!

I do not have an acoustic, but you can finde several presets with FUSE made for acoustic guitars. That might get you a good base to start messing with the settings:

Hope it helps!
