With the Mustang III, you can do everything without a computer. Its all on the front panel.

Just the whole "got to have a computer to do anything" is a pain for me. I want an amp that works, as an amp, with its effects, as is.

Aside from that, the footswitch option on the I is just a 2 button selection. On the III you can do so much more.

I do like the Fuse software. But I do not like the demand that I MUST use it. I like to just fiddle with effects using the amp. And beside that, there are 100 preset locations in the III and only 24 on the I.

So I am going to get the III. For those reasons. As for volume, well, it won't hurt to have more volume for that time in the distant future that I finally find a reliable drummer for a band .
+1. The MIII is easy to work with due to the LCD. Everything is right there. I hook up to fuse just long enough to back-up settings, but don't typically edit in there.

To those who think they'd spend too much time monkeying around: once I got about a dozen patches I liked, I quit twiddling with 'em. Set it and forget it. I have the 2 button and 4 button switches, so I can turn effects on and off as needed, and jump around the patches pretty quick.
