I recently picked up an electric guitar, and am using a Fender Mustang I amp a friend loaned my son. It is not a bad amp, per se. But it has built in effects that cannot be turned off, it is nice having the effects because I do not have any pedals yet. But I would like to be able to play clean sometimes.

I am looking for something about the same size. Maybe a bit bigger. It is a 1-8” 20 watt amp. Maybe something around the 50 watt area. If it has built in effects I am only interested if they can be turned off.

Bonus if anyone knows if it is possible to turn off the effects on this one.

Are we supposed to include a guitar tax here?

    I’ve been weirdly enjoying my cheap Catalyst 60 modelling amp. Has some nice clean tones and you can deep dive with the phone app to really dial in what you’re looking for if you want. But even the knobs on top of the amp allow you a good bit of tuning. Also allows you to experiment with a bunch of in built pedal-like effects/reverbs you switch on/off.
