It's cheap and used, like those women you see on the corner but the price was right and I needed it. I got a 15wt Fender Rumble for $50. I actually quite like the sound and am planning on getting a more powerful one down the line. Does anyone have any experience with the 100 or 150 watt ones?

Maybe its the red lights on the port that made it sound good!  |

Starting things fresh with a good friend of mine who plays guitar and we're auditioning drummers and vocalists atm. I know I can't really jam out with a drummer with this amp, but it's better than nothing. If not just for practice. ^_^ Quote:

That 15w is good for practice, but really won't serve you in a jam situation.
On the plus side, I've played a few Fender amps and they sounded o.k. to me.
Good luck and have fun.

|  | Bartle doo? | | Join Date: Jun 2010 Location: Missing Mountains | | | I got a rumble 30. I picked it up for small jams and practice at home with headphones. For a solid state amp, it does have a pretty good tone. It's all mids that make it that way. The "bass" is low mids, then mids and "treble" is really just high mids.
They're cool, little amps. I was surprised.
