why dont some fender amps have Mids? its really annoying in some ways, thats where you can change your tone drasticly...

    Fender (and many other amp mfg's) have put out special limited-run amp finishes, so this doesn't surprise me. It's mostly for fanatics, collectors, and the doctor-and-lawyer sect. Although a few will end up in the hands of actual players who just want something with a different look.

    Those amps have a fixed mid point. The idea is that you adjust your bass and treble around that mid point, like the mid is set permanently at half-way. I have an older Fender amp with just a single Tone control, and my Vibro Champ has Bass and Treble, no Mid. It's easy to get around, once you get used to it. But I agree, especially with Fender amps, the mids are where it's at.

    Good luck on the amp(s) you're watching...
    ...and if you don't like it, you can suck on an egg.
