Did I just waste my money on upgrading from MIII v1 to v2? I saw the wah was now available on the mod block so I didn't have to lose my stomps to use it so I upgraded. But looking at the manual it looks like the Exp Pedal replaces the 4 Buttom Footswitch which makes the MIII unusable for gigs. Please tell me I'm wrong!!!

Your still covered!
You plug the 4 button switch into the input jack of the Expression pedal and the EXP plugs into the 4 button jack in the back of the amp!

Sweet! What a relief. Did I miss that or is it not in the MIII manual?

I dont recall seeing it in the manual either, I found out the same way you just did. Not sure why its not explained in the manual.

I did find this on the Fender Support Page:

The Fender® EXP-1 Expression Pedal was created specifically for use with Fender® Mustang™ III, IV, V, and Mustang Floor. The EXP-1 expands the functionality of these amps when using them standalone or along with Fender® FUSE™. Have you ever created a really groovy wah effect on your Mustang only to realize theres no way to control it in realtime? If so, then the EXP-1 was made for you. Not only can it be used to control wah or similar effects, but it can be assigned to nearly any effect or amplifier parameter. Would you like to have realtime control for an overdrive effect for that monster solo? The EXP-1 Expression Pedal has you covered.

The EXP-1 connects directly to the MS-4, 4 button footswitch input on the Mustang III, IV, V, and to the EXP-1/MS-4 input on the Mustang Floor. It also contains a pass-through jack that allows you to daisy chain the MS-4, 4 button footswitch. This aids in reducing the clutter normally associated with multiple pedals in your setup.

When using the EXP-1 with the Mustang Floor, you have the ability to control 2 different amplifier or effects parameters in realtime along with overall volume. You can actually control the volume level of a reverb, for example, while simultaneously having control over the delay time of a delay effect. The EXP-1 can be setup to control these parameters right on the Mustang Floor itself. When using the EXP-1 with the Mustang III, IV, and V amps, setup in Fender FUSE is necessary. For more information about the EXP-1, Mustang III, IV, V, and Fender FUSE, take a look at the EXP-1 Quick Start Guide and Fender FUSE manuals below.

The EXP-1 expression pedal calibration procedure is as follows:

-Press and hold UTIL while powering on, UTIL LED should light up for 1 second.
-Move the expression pedal between the desired heel and toe endpoints to set the range.
-Turn the encoder knob to the next Preset to complete the process.
