Been playing just under a year. Began with and still use a Mustang 1. Great little package and more than enough than my current needs. But a few months ago I bought a Mustang micro - with a family it was tough to find the space and right time to practice. Now if I'm practicing in one room and my kids come in, I can just get up and go to the basement or whatever. Can also play when people are sleeping. Now I use it about 90% of the time. Great quality sound. Best hundred bucks I've ever spent!
