Is it being discontinued? I have had a Mustang III for a little over a year now but had never seen the Mustang Floor until today. I came across it and ended up ordering one tonight. It looks like it was $299 but there's a $25 drop from Fender right now but a few places have it for $175. I ended up ordering it for $175 which if it sounds the same as my amp then it's a steal. :D I can't wait for it to get here and try it out. I had been wanting to find some sort of multi-fx to record with or at least more versatility with the amp but if I added the expression pedal and 4-footswitch it was about as much as this. The USB and headphone jack on the Mustang III just seem so flimsy too. I looked at the back of these and they look solid so it looks to be promising. The only thing I think I will miss are the knobs of the amp. I know I can change settings through the jog wheel and the buttons but I like having that within reach. Looks like I'll hopefully have the best of both worlds. :mrgreen:

Looking forward to playing it and hope I will be happy.

The drop in price of the Mustang Floor isn't new. It's been mentioned here many times before, with much speculation as to the reason. Search the forum if you want to read more. However, no-one knows the reason for certain and Fender aren't saying anything. Note the price drop seems to be USA only; here in UK it's still full-price.

My personal 2p is that it's just aggressive pricing by Fender, distributors and retailers, to get people to buy stuff, and buy Fender stuff in particular. There are a lot of multi-fx / modelling units out there for the Mustang to compete with! Maybe sales of the M-Floor aren't as high as Fender hoped (worldwide economic climate to blame rather than any fault of the M-Floor!) so they just want to shift some units...

Interesting. It seems that some places have it on sale for $199 and some other places are taking $25 off of that. That's a fantastic deal! Coincidentally, Mustang III's are going for $274 right now as well.

zzsounds. It says they have a special $25 off sale through Dec 31 while supplies last. It also mentions it applies to other "qualifying" Fender and Squire gear, but I can't find a list of other such gear.

I just received my Floor(a day after ordering, but free shipping) from Austinbazaar.com for $174.99 and used a "deal15" coupon code for an addn'l 15% off. Also ordered the mustang 2 amp, both with free shipping $322 and some change( i live in TX so i had to pay sales tax, but a GREAT DEAL! Both on sale for 174.99 less 15% = $148.74. Seems like a good deal..... :D
