Fender Rumble Club

The reissues are $900. Of course no lefty.

I was wrong, if you read what I originally wrote here. I went back and looked more closely and it appears this is it. The difference is the fretboard is maple, and the headstock doesn't look the same.

This is serious! Somebody had sabotaged the Tone Pool spreadsheet. All of the universal stuff is gone and only a few of somebody's personal settings are left. I'm seriously pissed about this.
Does anyone have a recent copy they can put back in? Mine is from 10/16/2016.
Hopefully this was an accident and not malicious conduct. Please be careful, this is an asset for all of us. If you want to do stuff for yourself, it is best to make a copy on your device and use it.

I remember posting a while ago you can revert to an older version?

OK, I reverted it to the version of July 7th, that seems the right one? Please correct me if wrong.
Maybe a password for editing would be in order?

Been reading this thread forever, and just realized I never joined.

I have a Rumble 30 V2 & a Rumble 200c V3.2017-07-20 19.30.04.jpg 2017-07-20 19.39.39.jpg

I use the 30W to play in a medium size church setting, and to my shock it does a great job. The 45-degree kickback is a great option. I also love my 200 combo and have used it for a few gigs. Have never set Volume above '3' on any of those gigs (3 acoustic guitars, keys and drums all thru my PA – bass was only Rumble 200c amplifier). I really can't wait to try it with my Eden D210XLT cab…it sounds monstrous in the house.

It really is the just the right sound! I have a '75 Jazz AVRI (natural+RW+tort) and an old Ibanez Roadstar II P/J. Both passive – both give me the sound I crave, esp. thru the Rumbles.

Question: I love the white knobs on the V3, but find mine getting pretty dirty even though they are very gently handled. Anyone else seeing that?

First, welcome to the club. Yes, early on the V3 knobs would discolor all on their own. Fender fixed this issue, and would never reveal the actual cause. Just call Fender and ask for a new set.

Hi all. Well Ive been reading the Rumble Club's thread right from page 1 and made it to page 22 before noticing there were 1037 pages..oh boy I thought..it will take me years to get there and by that time I could be in a retirement home..lets jump the line loll
Had my Rumble 75 for about 6 years and I wouldnt be without it. I have it in my lounge room next to the TV which is my practise room. I like to watch while I play...err that didnt come out too good.
I bought the amp for a practice amp mainly but have done a few medium sized gigs with it and it copes very well against loud drummers and guitarists. I have run my Ricky 4003, EBMM Stingray 5 and Peavey 5 Dyna Bass comfortably through this dynamic little amp with great results at home and live gigs. I use my Peavey MKIV Bass head through my Peavey 1820 cab for big gigs but I sure do love the sound the Fender Rumble 75 puts out for the club sized gigs and home practise. I have gone by Linnin's settings also with great effect. Thanks Linnin.
I have read many of Linnin's posts in this and other forums and his knowledge and experience are worth taking note of...besides that he's an old guy like me lolll..I would say Linnin you and I could be similar ages as I have gigged about for 50ish years (had my first paying gig at 16 here in Aust) and still thinking about grabbing another band after a 5 year hiatus. Gotta love old age and it's complications..lol
If numbers for the club are still being given out I would love one please.

Well...I guess it is time to join the club!!!

I must admit, I didn't see this one coming but when researching 12" cabs, I decided to give the Fender Rumble v3 112's a try. I was truly impressed...then...in a music store for a non bass gear related trip, I heard a player struggling through some playing/bass lines in the bass area but the tone really caught my ear...I wander over that way and glance down at a Fender Rumble v3 combo of some sort (maybe the 200w combo)...then once I saw/read how the Rumble heads fit snug/magnetically on the 112 cabs (and all the Rumble cabs I believe), I decided to give it a go and very happy I did so!!! She won't get a gig workout until next weekend and it will be a couple of different venues but I look forward to hearing this one live!!

*Sorry about the replacement knobs purists, I saw a video where a guy had swapped out the knobs and loved the look - so i did the same thing*
