Fender Rumble Club

Not sure who is in charge here, but I posted about a month or so back that I just bought a Rumble 500C. I don't recall getting a number. I now have the 210 cab to go with it, so I'm pretty sure I should be in the club. BTW, I love the set up/sound. Still can't get over the sound and the weight. Add in the $$$ spent and it's untouchable. I can even put my GB Streamliner on top and run it through the extension cab. I am one happy camper. My GAS has been cured...for now.
Welcome Rumbler #839. My sincere apologies. I try not to miss any requests. The 500c and the 2x10 is an awesome rig.
 
You aren't the only one requesting a number. I put in a request several weeks ago. I am not worried. I put the post number in my signature, for easy finding. Maybe you can do the same.
Welcome Rumbler #840! Sorry I missed your request. I try to catch them all. I even have this thread on watch so it will tell me when someone posts. Now, continue to Rumble on!

Thanks Gravedigger. This thread seems to be one of the busiest on the whole site. I can see how it could get away from you, especially this time of year and all. Your dance card is pretty full, I'm sure.
 
Had my Fender Rumble 500 V3 Combo (with the 2x10" Eminence Drivers) and my Fender Rumble 115 V3 Cabinet delivered yesterday although the casters for the cab were omitted so just waiting on them. When I have the casters fitted in the next few days i'll post some pics. I have owned a Fender Rumble 75 V2 for a couple years now and that little amp really pumps air. I gave the combo and cab a blow this morning and boy I thought i'd have to call a glazier if my lounge room windows blew out loll These amps really are loud and the tonal variation on the amp with or without the horn added to the sound is incredible. An added bonus of course is the horn loaded cab which can also be turned off or cut back to -6Db if needed. The rig together is mind blowing for the lightweight size of amp and 15" extension cab as both units are less than 40 pounds weight. When used with my EBMM SR5 i had tone selections running out my kazoo..I am going to have to experiment for awhile to find the best tone settings on the bass and the amp for just home practise let alone the different venues I will use the rig. I love a good challenge. These Fender Rumble amps are truly amazing. I almost bought an old 60's Bassman in the 70's..i think from memory it was a 4x12 cab..the only reason I didnt buy it secondhand was because I couldnt fit it into my car..it was a monster, but boy did it really sound great at the time with my old 80's Ric 4003..this Rumble 500 with the 115 cab attached reminds me of the power of that old 60's Bassman for about half the size and weight.
Replacing my Peavey MKIV Head (heavy) and Peavey 1820 cab (heavier than any cab of its size known) is now in effect. I am relegating the Peavey rig to the spare room. I would regret selling it so i'm not..who knows I may use it again if I continue to eat my spinach and grow Popeye muscles. The Rumble500 Combo and 115 cab are truly amazing...I can honestly call this rig The Thunder From Down Under. Will post pics soon. Giff.
