Fender has set out to raise its digital modelling game with this 100-watt evolution of the Mustang amp line – but does it have the tone to match its impressive line-up of emulations?

Two of the biggest brains in British pedal-building combine forces once again to create updated versions of a pair of legendary dirt machines.
