I will post my comments soon. But, by the price paid ( 250$ ) and the features and quality built, it looks like a great little amp to keep in my bedroom ! |

| | | | $250 for 40 watts? Seems steep. |

For those looking for a good little amp, much powerful than its rating with tons of effects, this is yours ! For the price, it is a good buy and will do the job for my specific needs.
I have not played with the software yet but it appears promising ! |

This is perfect form someone who wants access to a variety of tones, record and have a small lightweight amp that you can easily put in the corner of the house anywhere !
Good job Fender once again ! I am all Fender rig now owning the Super Bassman and the 410 Neo !! Great amps, great tone ! Kudos Fender !
I will try the included software and play with the settings, etc soon and post my comments ! |

| | | | Make sure you download the fuse software. You can really wake up the amp.....in a good way. |

|  | Registered User | | Join Date: Sep 2000 Location: Ottawa, Ontario CANADA | | | I have not had a chance to use the software much, however I played a lot with the settings and different combinations of the Bronco. Very impressive to say the least! My favourite is the Bassman 300 with my Rickenbacker !!! It growls really well! |

| | | | I had this amp for a month, I found the sound out the DI & Headphones to very good (alot like fenders demo that can be seen on youtube) but the sound out of the internal speaker...... underwhelming. I returned mine. |

| | | | I've been trying to decide between the Bronco and the A35 Hartke for a practice amp. I appreciate the info! |

|  | Registered User | | Join Date: Sep 2000 Location: Ottawa, Ontario CANADA | | | I would have a tendency to prefer the Bronco over the Hartke myself just because of its versatility and extra features you can find on it. Enjoy your new little amp !!! |
