    Agreed, I have 4 Rumbles with the exact 3 buttons and have no issues. They all work as advertised. Definitely get the issue checked.

    Thanks to all for the comments, they are appreciated. The 210 cab does not have the pop up casters, and wanted a bottom unit with them. I decided to go with the Rumble 115 and save my back for playing, not carrying! I will post how the set up works out for my situation. AJ

    Fender Rumble Club

    Hi, looking for thoughts or experiences using a Rumble only set up. I currently own a Rumble 500 combo, Rumble 210 cab, and a Rumble 500 head. Been using the Rumble 500 combo/210 for gigs (clubs/bars up to around 100 people). Not going direct with the Bass, so the Amp is FOH and monitoring, old...

    Hi, that is not a screw hole. It is a neck adjustment point, which can be used instead of a shim if the neck angle ever needs to be adjusted. Interesting on the battery, as it seems it should have not affected the volume when in the non EQ position on the 4 position knob. I will have to check...

    Sorry to hear on the P pick up, but should be a relatively easy fix. Much better than an issue with the EQ. The Bass looks great, the Burgundy Mist is such a cool, and rare color!!

    The 3 position flip switch controls the pups. Try the 4 position lowest knob (EQ control) and see if it occurs at each position. One position is mute, so you should hear nothing. Trying to determine if it is the EQ or not.

    Hi Alan, I have not noticed this issue with any of my Urge basses. A couple of quick questions. Does this occur at all three knob positions: regular EQ, boosted mid EQ, and no EQ? Also, are the strings new, and correct medium scale (32” strings)? Are the pups stock without any mods? Could you...

    Are higher priced Fenders really worth it?

    I think you have to separate the playability of the instrument from the monetary/asset side. From a playability standpoint, there are good ones, and bad ones no matter where they are made. From a financial standpoint, the American produced basses hold their value better, and can appreciate...

    Fender Stu Hamm American Urge I and II Basses

    No problem buddy, always happy to assist a fellow Bass dude! I use the 34” scale Urge II gigging out with no issues. The 32” inch scale Urge I just does not quite “growl” enough for me. They are very mid heavy, but the neck is super fast. Most traditional Fender players will probably prefer the...
