I seriously need to make a phone app so in pics and videos when people are driving on the wrong side of the road or their guitars are pointing the wrong way, i can hit a flip button and my world is right again.

One of these things is not like the others one of these things just not does not belong. All those fenders look beautiful but that Ricky not quite a match
You antiLeftys are hate mongers and historical revisionists and soon you will be tearing down our statues of Jimi Hendrix and Paul McCartney!
For every legend lefty I can find 2 that are lefty in life but had the good sense to learn guitar or bass righty. Just for the ample choice of instruments available the “right” way, I’m sure I would have done the same.
Ill have to try to get a proper fender family photo with the rumble tomorrow
Yeah! You know it gave him a signature look with the reverse headstock that is being copied very profitably to this day. Too bad he was too busy doing drugs and dying to copyright/trademark his upside down Fender right out from under CBS. It would have been glorious. Yet whoever it is that owns the Jimi Hendrix name still gets plenty of profit.
I was wondering if any of you actually own the current Rumble 25 and if so, what do you honestly think about it?
I owned one for a year. It's sole purpose was to live at my guitarist's house so I wouldn't have to lug my Rumble 75 back and forth for rehearsals. I liked it, and sounded much better than I had thought it would and louder than I thought it would be too. Hep C + cirrhosis killed him, and I ended up selling the amp.

Here's a data chart of Rumble specs for those considering various models/sizes/speakers/etc. I've also added this to the Fender Rumble Club Wiki.
I have one. It's a nice practice amp. Can't hang with drums, except perhaps in a very soft jazz setting, but I recall comparing to equivalent Ampeg, Acoustic and other models at GC and felt the tone was much, much nicer--sounded like a "real" amp, while the others were flat and sterile. (subjective, I know--YMMV, IMHO, etc.,).
Try one--you may like it!

It's a great practice amp. Way more volume and tone than you'd think could come out of an 8" speaker. I actually use it to practice with my oldies and classic rock band. (We practice in the band leader's basement at a reasonable volume for the small room. When we play gigs I use a Rumble 500 combo.)
Also let me add that it is the very best $99 (new & shipped) bass amp ever made by mankind.
It is a great home practice amp. I got my 25v3 to replace 15 v2 that had a failing speaker.
Well, the Rumble 150 head wasn't cutting it, not enough power. Probably fine for a coffee shop gig, but not for anything louder. Saw a near-mint Rumble 350 head on Reverb for $200 so I went for it. I did a quick swap from the 150 head to the 350 head, back to the 150, back again to the 350. The 350 is definitely louder, but the lowest notes (open E) also have more authority with the 350. The 150 is going up on eBay, I'm sure I'll get my initial investment back ($60) so it's all good.
