Fender Rumble Club

I have a Rumble 150 Combo. Have gigged with it once so far and love it. Question though: Is it possible to get another 150 combo, or 350 combo, and hook the two together? Would love a number, pleeuz...

If this is about getting more volume, I would recommend checking out a different driver. It could be a gamble, but I put 2 10" Eminence BassLite S2010s in my Rumble 350 combo, and I easily got 6 DB more volume MINIMUM. I would play around 5 with the 6 DB PAD disengaged. Now I play about 3 with the 6 DB PAD engaged. Plus my combo is 12 pounds lighter.

Otherwise, combining is in the manual. Simply go from SEND of the primary to the RETURN of the secondary. I tested it out and it works fine and like I said, it tells you to do this in the manual.
 
I've had this Rumble 25 since 2003. Love the sound of it. I use it on an almost daily bases.

I have been following Gougedeye's example, and making positive posts citing real life examples of just how good Fender Bass Amplification actually is on the gig; in a jam, or in the bedroom as an excellent choice as a practice amp. While Fender bashers/haters may abound along with some absurd snobery, the fact of the matter is that Rumble bass amps are superb for their intended purpose from the Rumble 15 all the way to the Rumble 350 Stack. There is a reason the Rumble 150 Combo is the best selling bass combo in America. I've also read some amazingly positive posts from those with no agenda what-so-ever. They just own and love Rumble amps. With good reason.

Rumbles Rock Baby, Yeah!

I am also a lover of fender bass amps. Not just the rumbles but the fender pro series, the tb stuff and i really like the new 100 and 300t.

At rehearsal tonight in one of my bands where i am not the bass player the guy who does play bass played his 5er through my rumble 4x10 cab and it really sounded great.

Hi

Our band played outside this Friday at a senior center.We have a small P.A.We use our own instrument amps.I played through my Fender Rumble 350 combo.At the end of the night a fellow bass player,much younger then me,came up to ask what amp I was using.He couldn't believe all the volume,low end I was getting from this Fender Rumble 350 amp.The only adverse thing I heard all night was from our singers telling me I was to loud.Why do some of these bass players need such big amps.I don't understand?The Fender Rumble 350 sounded really good.

Thanks

I had a non-working Acoustic B20 combo and was able to get a steal on a Fender Rumble 150 head. So, thought about using it as a removable head in the B20 combo. Used the original B20 combo speaker and, obviously, no good. So, with the help of some great advice from other TBr's, I decided to replace the original speaker with an Eminence Beta 12A. Got a great deal on that too. This little combo is awesome. I thought the closed cab would present problems but works great together. With a removable head, I can use it with my other cabs. But, with the combo I have a powerful, portable combo amp I can use for small, acoustic gigs. Thank you Fender and TB.
