yes, I agree. I bought three Mustangs when they were phasing out the V1 for the V2, and Best Buy was getting out of the music instrument biz. I got a killer deal. I bought two M1 V1's, one for a friend who always wanted an amp; and another for the shack outside of town where I sometimes get to hang out. Both amps were $49. I snagged an M2 V1 for $88. It is 40 watts with a 12" speaker. I use it at home. Best of all there is no fizz in any of them.
I really like the Fuse software that comes with it. You can adjust all the models to taste. Fender also has a site to download many other settings.
I don't want to sound like a Fender shill, but I hardly ever get great deals, so I had to toot my horn.
