Fender Tone for Positive User Reviews
✓ Problem with pedal display on appThe pedals on certain presets that i have downloaded look like a mess with all the pedals on the app showing up, this only occured when i opened the app a day after messing about on it for the first time. Really good app apart from this just annoying when i want to use certain presets..Version: 3.1.5
✓ Great ampThe sounds I am getting from the 209 built in setups are amazing.Version: 3.1.0
✓ Great app but..This is a great app and it makes setting up your tones a doddle with a smartphone or tablet. There needs to be the option of copy and pasting text when creating your presets for uploading. I have tried to do this and it’s not possible. I found this out by typing out a long description of one of my tones, spell checking it and making sure there were no mistakes only to get to the end and it not posting even though I’ve tapped the post button and then losing all my text. Rather annoying when all I want to do is upload some tones with a good description. I feel they could do the community side of things better so it would create interaction between users and I have taken matters in to my own hands by creating a Facebook group for this purpose, whilst stating that it is not affiliated with Fender. Please make these improvements for the extra star 😉.Version: 3.1.4
✓ Great Amp, Good SoftwareI use this app to control a Fender Mustang GTX. The amp itself sounds terrific. The Tone app isn’t perfect, but it does its job well enough that I can’t really complain. The main UI for configuring signal chain and managing presets is very intuitive and extremely flexible (compared to my previous “smart” amp, the Spark). Some other areas of the app can start to feel a little clunky, and the connection between amp/iPad drops more often than I would like. But I consider these minor issues; overall the app does what it was designed to do and gets out of my way. Fender gets some criticism for not providing continuous app or amp updates, but I think this is a little unfair. In my opinion the software/firmware is very solid and doesn’t have any major bugs to address. It’s unrealistic to expect Fender to continue delivering free updates. I would rather have a solid amp with no updates as opposed to a mediocre amp with continuous updates..Version: 3.2.7
✓ Pretty awesomeNice layout and easy to add FX, pretty simple to get hooked up to your amp as well. The screen on the amp is pretty easy to use already but this is awesome.Version: 3.1.2
✓ Simply AmazingEasy to learn and connect and update. Crazy good sounds for a practice amp. Makes me practice longer. Joy!.Version: 2.1.4
✓ Very handy addition to the amp!If I were able to do a half-star, I would’ve rated the app 4.5; it’s a very nice app, but has a few nuisances. It’s a great way to immediately access certain presets without having to scroll through the whole list to get to the ones you want, and it’s very handy for creating/editing presets. This is especially true when renaming them; doing it from the amp is a time-consuming pain. It’s also nice to not have to put the guitar down or hang over the amp whenever you want to change something or adjust volume, you can just do it real quick from your phone. The only issue I have is that the connectivity can be troublesome. My phone will have a hard time finding the amp through Bluetooth and usually have to resort to restarting the amp, occasionally twice over. Restarting the amp does usually do the trick, I originally wasted a lot of time trying many other methods to get around this obstacle. Once it is connected, though, the app is very resourceful and highly recommended. It’s worth the starting-up hassle when all is said and done..Version: 3.1.2
✓ Awesome appSuch a cool app.Version: 2.1.1
✓ Great app but having issues *resolvedEdit: responsive developers always trying their best to improve the app. My problem was resolved 5 stars, Fender keep doing you—you’re doing great! I updated my amp to version 3.0.43 but when I connect it to the app, the app keeps stating there is a “tone/amp update”. My amp is definitely on the latest version and so is the app. I’m a little confused here..Version: 3.1.3
✓ It’s nice to see a hardware company do software wellOver and over there are examples of hardware companies, especially legacy companies like Fender, totally botch modern products that incorporate software and digital interfaces. I have gone from a tube, tweed Fender Blues Jr. to a Boss ME-80 pushing a Blackstar solid state amp to a Fender GTX-100 and I gotta admit, while they completely botched the foot switch, they got the software right. It’s simple, easy to navigate and very intuitive; especially the iPad version. Nicely done Fender. What? You want to know the issues with the foot switch? Sure, I’d love to tell you. First, the buttons are LOUD! Ker-chunk with every press. I have many pedals and they all have a nice, somewhat delicate click. This thing is loud. Second, I have several looper pedals AND HERE IS HOW THEY ALL WORK. YOU PRESS TO RECORD AND PRESS THE SAME BUTTON TO START THE LOOP. NOT ANOTHER PEDAL TWO BUTTONS TO THE LEFT. this means that with some intricate loops I have to look away from my guitar to make sure I click a foot button that is two buttons to the right. Stupid. Almost like the didn’t try it themselves. Third, the included cord is crappy and you cannot use a third party cord. At least mine won’t work. And I’m talking real quality cords! You know, Fender, you should have had the software guys hold the foot switch..Version: 3.2.10
✓ App Keeps crashing the Mustang AmpWorks really well but often when making my own preset it crashes the amp and I have to turn it off and on again. It freezes the amp and nothing plays. Not sure if others are having the same issue..Version: 3.2.0
✓ Great App...Great Amp...One WeaknessI am a Rumble user and love the app and the Amp. My only issue is I would love to be able to create and modify patches when not connected to the Amp. Sometimes I am away from the Amp and an idea hits me. It would be great to create a patch..Version: 2.0.1
✓ Mostly great. MostlyI don’t know if it loses Bluetooth connection frequently or what but that “Syncing In Progress” or whatever that message is comes up far too often. Fender needs to fix 2 things; the Mesa amp models have no controls in the app. No gain, volume, nothing. Secondly, the cloud backup does not always work. It seems that the first time in the day that I attempt a backup, it works. If I try again with a more updated backup, it fails every time. Stupid..Version: 3.1.2
✓ So convenientI love this app and I love my fender mustang amp!! The app used to disconnect me from my amp a bunch but since updating it I haven’t had any problems. I do however wish you could have some drum beats or a built in drum machine that you could use in the app and use your looper to practice! I also wish you could continue to add more pedals and more effects..Version: 3.2.3
✓ Modern Age AmplifierWhat a difference to be able to have built-in presets that change your Rumble 800 Stage bass amplifier to match the most popular amplifiers of all time in history. It like have a bunch of different bass amplifiers in your studio and switching from one to another on the fly with the turn if a knob. Then on top of that having the ability of creating your own sound that you created yourself. Forgot all those pedals you used to carry around and use the amp to build your own pedals that are like the classics of the past. Included is a multi function 4 button floor pedal that does looping and effects that you program yourself. Plain and short now you have a modern Bass Amplifier that can do pretty much anything..Version: 2.0.1
✓ So goodBest music ever.Version: 1.3.3
✓ EasyVery easy to navigate and set up.Version: 2.0.1
✓ Great appSome times it can be a bit confusing but once you get the hang of it you rock like mad 🎸🤘.Version: 3.1.6
✓ IPad app pleaseI suebthe amp on rehearsals and on gigs, it’s awesome but an iPad app would be aeromarítimo for my rehearsals, thank you.Version: 2.0.1
✓ CoolVraiment bien j’aimerais simplement savoir sy ces possible de poser des questions.Version: 3.1.1
✓ Preset does not match ampThe app would be great in my eyes if it just worked reliably. I don’t get the same disconnecting issues but the glaring thing to me is the presets on the app sometimes do not match the amp. At times I can’t tell to trust the app or amp (but I do lean on just checking the amp). It’s very weird if you try to edit one of the erroneous presets in the app because it’ll sometimes miss the fx of then preset on the amp. Either way that is weird so please fix it Fender. I like the app so I cm easily scroll through the library of presets - it’d be great if it matched the amp 100%..Version: 2.1
✓ Can’t connect Bluetooth to appFor some reason the Bluetooth won’t connect to iPhone. Still playing around with it but so far nothing. App useless without that. UPDATE: I finally got it to connect and it works. I don’t what the problem was at first but it started working a few hours after my initial review. It can still be spotty which is why I give 4 stars..Version: 2.1.5
✓ Pretty frustratingI brought home my GT-40 and was excited to start playing around with it. Unfortunately this app has taken a lot of the fun out of that. It was a pain to get it to connect via Bluetooth. Fortunately I was able to get the amp connected to WiFi so I could update the firmware but since that it’s been a pain. If I go to download any presets it tells me I need newer firmware even though it’s on the latest version. I guess I can change the presets from the amp itself but I was hoping that the app would make it easier to operate so I could experiment more freely. I sincerely hope that the app gets fixed ____________________________________________________________________ Update: The new version (3.0) is far better. Blue Tooth connectivity is more intuitive and streaming is easier. I love the visual representation of the different components. This is actually fun now!.Version: 3.0.0
✓ Thank youI never leave reviews - don’t have time ! But thank you Fender , your app and Amps have sparked me on to play more and play better !.Version: 3.0.4
✓ Only one complaintAwesome amp (GTX100) and app. My only beef is that there isn’t a virtual pedal that would control the master amp volume. If you are using the XLR out there is no way to control the volume with the EXP-1 in either volume or expression mode. Sure, the amp speaker is affected but XLR out is always maxed. This makes the XLR output useless for live gigs. There is a workaround where you can control the eq-5 pedal and use the EXP-1 to control gain but it’s not the greatest. I don’t want to drive gain, just volume..Version: 3.2.6
✓ Fender Tine Version 3.0 -nice upgrade!Very nice upgrade to an app and amp I enjoy working, experimenting, and playing with. I’ve been a Fender Amp player for 50+ years now. The Bogner amp was a nice addition along with your Blues JR and Vibro-King. The GUI of each amp & pedal saved settings is impressive too!! Thanks for fixing the ‘ bug too. Can’t wait for the next version upgrade with more amps and pedal effects. BTW, I love the Mustang GT 100 so much, I bought three. One for my studio, live stage, and a backup!! Thanks Fender..Version: 3.0.1
✓ The app and the amp are terrific.I Bought the GTX100 amp and immediately it synced up with the app and my WiFi. I was able to get a bigger picture of the effects chain than the display on the amp. Editing is fun, easy, and because of the graphics, feels like I’m using guitar pedals..Version: 3.1.4
✓ App update erased all my presetsSame here list all my presets. Where they still on my amp and different on the updated amp? Can I put my amp presets on the tone app on my phone? Thanks.Version: 3.0.1
✓ Great control and accessibilityAwesome app. Gives you pretty much complete control of your amp and effects chain and settings. Lets you make changes or adjustments and try new tones on the fly without having to save them. Exactly what I was looking for. I like you you can delete the cabinet simulation from the amp setting to open up the sound too..Version: 3.1.2
✓ Infinite tone optionsApp makes almost infinite tonal options, the new interface for signal chain looks great and easy to work with. You can listen to any song and replicate it really, really well. Bluetooth always works flawlessly and same with Bluetooth streaming. I started getting issues with the pedal working on custom tones. Pressing the tune footswitch would do nothing as well as switching through effects. Contacted customer and they helped tremendously. Niko.Version: 3.1.1
✓ Rumble studio 40A hard copy manual would be helpful, the problem would be making it useful not over simple and not a technical manual the size of a encyclopedia..Version: 3.2.9
✓ Top classThe app is so easy to use and makes creating presets a breeze..Version: 2.1.5
✓ It’s a mustGreat for fender amps.Version: 3.1.3
✓ Blue tooth not streaming from deviceBluetooth not streaming since update UPDATE ; Fender kindly sent me an email telling me to force update which was to hold encoder in and middle soft key whilst turning on for five seconds , this forced an update ,which seems to have sorted the problem , well done Fender for your quick response..Version: 2.1.1
✓ Needs more bug fixes and contentGreat for adjust your own settings however many little bugs that get annoying. Needs more user submitted content and fender made presets of varying artists.Version: 1.1
✓ Just about the best thing ever!!A perfect thing to have on a budget, truly excellent and uncompromising!.Version: 3.1.6
✓ Fender ToneI find the app to be brilliant and no issues at all connecting it with my Rumble 800 stage. I also enjoy trying out the new sounds via the Internet. At gigs it performs flawlessly, particularly through my iPad display. The best way to become familiar with the range of presets is to play them regularly while rehearsing at home. In this manner they can be accessed quickly and new ones bumped to the foot switch preferences if required..Version: 3.0.4
✓ TonyEnjoying working with my new Mustang GT40. Lots of useful features as well as some ‘surprise and delight’ items. The only downside is that it doesn’t have a line out facility to connect into a PA system..Version: 2.1.1
✓ OriginalMais difficile à saisir le mode de fonctionnement.Version: 3.2.4
✓ Originally infuriating.... now it's greatUpdate: after a lot of fiddling around and following the advice I managed to force the amp to update properly (it took four attempts and a modicum of swearing). Now this app works perfectly. I can now access all the tones from this app and they transfer seamlessly to the Amp. It's great. Original Review: I have a Fender Mustang GT40. I've updated the firmware to the latest version (1.2.25) from the base version (1.0.38). When I try to download a custom tone within the App, it displays the "limited functionality - update firmware to use his feature message" with a "Got it" and "show me how" button. I've followed the show me how and the amp is up to date. But this infuriating message won't go away and I can't download a custom tone. It's driving me mad! I've tried hard resetting the Amp and re-updating; I've deleted the App on my iPhone (running latest version of iOS - I updated yesterday on an iPhone 6S). Why doesn't this work? So much potential but it just won't work. Happy to join Beta Developer Team to help resolve this issue if you can tell me how. I want this to be as great as it looks like it could be. There's nothing on your FAQ that covers this issue and Google has nothing either. Help!!! Rob Taylor.Version: 1.0.6
✓ Great app, frustrating preset inconsistencies with updateWhen I first downloaded this app update, I see the latest presets pictured in the App Store screen grab. However, when I connect my older Mustang GT 40, all those new presets are overridden and the app mirrors the old presets. I can no longer see the new ones on the app. Any way to choose what I want to do?.Version: 3.1.0
✓ Mustang 200Great, versatile, amp and great fun too !.Version: 2.1.1
✓ Very happySure it ain’t a valve amp but what you get for the price is ENDLESS options of amps pedals and effects… try fill all 200 spaces on the memory bank!!!.Version: 3.2.0
✓ Wish ListI am still definitely in love with this app and with my GTX100. The very top of my wish list for a feature enhancement to this application would be: The ability to Copy a specific instance of a specific amp/effect and then user goes to desired destination patch AND effect to access the Paste. There are already tons of patch memory slots, so allocating a few to my "all my favourite settings for my amps and effects" master patches..Version: 3.2.6
✓ Almost perfect...The ability to drag/drop pedals in your effects chain would be helpful. Also, the ability to assign effect to the stomp switches on the amp’s foot switch any way you like is pretty essential IMHO. Lastly, parameter adjustment on the effects should be a) much less sensitive and b) have the ability to input values using the device’s “keyboard”..Version: 3.1.4
✓ Firmware issueSo I recently bought a new GTX 50 amp. I’ve been wanting to try the fender tone app for a while since I was never able to use it on my old amp. The day I opened it, I downloaded some effects I wanted and had a good time with them. Since that day, I’ve been unable to download anymore effects due to a “Limited Functionality” popup on the app whenever I press add. I have updated my amp’s firmware 3 times and have been told there were no updates available. My amp is on version 3.0.96 and am still unable to download presets due to this issue. How do I fix this problem? I have reconnected to wifi multiple times, re-downloaded the app, checked for updates on the amp and nothing has worked..Version: 3.2.1
✓ Need iPad or windows tablet appsI love the amp but play the guitar. The phone app is to small when you have calicoes on your fingers. iPad and windows app would be great.Version: 1.3.2
✓ GT 100 AmpI am so proud to own this GT-100. I would have never believed that a Amp could do so much. I’m 58 yrs. and have been playing guitar since I was 10. I have recently decided that it’s time for me to learn how to play lead. And that’s why I bought this amp. The technology on Fenders Amp is simply unbelievable. I prefer southern rock you should here this amp playing train train by Blackfoot. Or Tuesday gone with the wind LS. I have already learned lead on black magic women. I salute the Fenders Engineer s designers and all of there employees! Well done..Version: 2.0.1
✓ Brilliant TechAwesome fun to be had with this amp..Version: 3.1.4
✓ Great AppThis is a great app for my Fender Amp saves a lot of time.Version: 1.3.3
✓ Ipad!!!Make it compatible with an iPad and it'd b great.Version: 1.3.1
✓ Great app with a couple connectivity issuesThis app for the mustang gt series makes them the best practice amp out there , I would give it five stars but sometimes it's a pain to connect , other then that it's AMAZING. Also waaaay better tone from this then the line 6.Version: 3.2.2
✓ App and Amp are so cool together...Using the Fender Mustang GT 100 as a beginner I thought would be too much amp for me but it makes learning wonderfully fun and the app helps considerably. Only practice can make someone a better guitar player but there is something to be said for being able to hear such beautiful and unique tone coming through. Presets from other users further inspire my own creativity and, though I am just starting out, the motivation to find my own tone is there. I was able to grasp how to use the app right away and find myself exploring features both using the controls on the amp or through the app. Great design and all around great product. I’m having a blast!.Version: 2.1.5
✓ AnthonyAmazing app, works absolutely amazing with the mustang GTX 100. Very impressed and all free ! 🎸🤘🏻😎.Version: 3.1.2
✓ Game-changer in the modeling amp space!Decent amp but the companion Tone App makes it fantastic and a compelling force on the modeling amp landscape. I own the Mustang III v2 yet couldn’t resist the additional purchase of the new GT 100. After a couple years of perfecting Fender Fuse and still struggling to embrace it, The Tone App blows fuse out of the water and makes this whole tone control, tone presets and amp modeling thing fun again! Sorry Fender but yes, the Mustang III, V2 does have a slightly better sound and I wish GT was equal but it sounds good enough and with a little manipulation with tones using this amazing and easy to use app you can find your sound! My only requests so far for future release... 1. Preset back up in a cloud! 2. A quicker way while in a preset to save it directly to a saved “Playlist” (or several) vs saving the preset and having to go all the way back to a Playlist, finding the new tone and then adding it. 3. Adding Wah pedal functionality using the app vs going over to the amp Outstanding job Fender App team, keep up the good work and don’t abandon this like they did Fuse and can’t wait for future updates!!!.Version: 1.3.1
✓ A Better Way to TweakThis is a lot easier to use than the encoder wheel/menu buttons on the amp. I like that you can see the signal chain with pictures that make it easier to guess what effect/amp it's trying to emulate too. Further to that, it would be very handy if there were descriptions of the amps/cabs/effects in the app - the way there is in the manual - for those of us that aren't gear connoisseurs. A "what's new" tab would be nice too. 'More effects and amps added' just isn't descriptive enough for me 😁.Version: 3.0.1
✓ Tuner modeThis app is a great way to work my Fender Mustang GTX 50. I truly enjoy using it rather using the controls on the amp itself or switching with the foot switch. I wish there was a way to see the tuner on my iPhone and iPad. A tuner mode feature viewable on my devices in all amp settings would be a major plus for me being a paraplegic and in a power wheelchair I can not use the foot switch on the floor. Or at the very least a tuner effect pedal..Version: 3.1.6
✓ Mustang GTXNice amp I like the solid wood cabinet and the speaker and the software I struggle with the Bluetooth and Wifi consistency it’s just not there. Love the amp but if you’re going to gig with it turn off the wifi and Bluetooth.Version: 3.2.2
✓ SuggestionIt’s a good app, I like it, it can get sometimes buggy but it’s cool, I have one suggestion thought and it would be cool if you can make it an option to put images on your set lists. For example If I wanted a set list to be an album, I would want it to have the cover album instead of just the title..Version: 3.2.1
✓ Fender appSimply extraordinary! What can I say Gt40. Portable. Compact. Endless options If I’d had one of these at 15. I’ve have never discovered girls! Enjoy.Version: 2.1.5
✓ I was an early adopter...I got my GT 40 when they were first released and it has only gotten better and better with firmware updates and the Tone app. Aside from the crappy headphone jack (which I don’t use and couldn’t even if I wanted to anymore) this amp has been a favorite of mine. And now the v3 version is next level. Love the Blues Jr. model. And the new UI is excellent. It’s so great that my amp sounds better now, by a long shot than it did when I got it (2017?). Thanks. Now my only question is to get the GTX or just keep my GT 40 till it melts down one day!!!.Version: 3.0.6
✓ Fender ToneChoose, set, save, share, receive ideas. Also, using it w/ Rumble 800 and Rumble Studio 40 I have a wealth of sought after rigs that require practically no maintenance and no need for large space to house them or large vehicles to lug them. Don’t have to be rich or be a star to have this much desirable equipment anymore..Version: 1.3.3
✓ Really can’t connect to my Mustang GT100The functionality would be great, but I can’t get it to connect. It used to work, but these days it just doesn’t. I have tried various things like forgetting pairings on both amp and iPhone, renaming the amp, closing down the app, restarting the amp multiple times, updating to the latest firmware (3.0.43) etc. It’s super unreliable. I wouldn’t buy a Bluetooth connected amp again. Having a new fancy 3D look is pointless for me. Just make Bluetooth work reliably! Edit: it does seem to be much better now and actually useful.Version: 3.1.3
✓ Using the modeler just got way easierThe interface really opens up the potential of this amp and lets you dig deep into the features. Fenders app developers made an intuitive and easy to use GUI. What I would love to see in future is an offline mode to create presets when inspiration is on but the amp is off..Version: 3.2.3
