Celebrate Oz! Will Power Wins The Indy 500!

Yay, Will Power! Congratulations!!

How did Intestinal Fortitude do? Strength O'Character? What about Dogged Perseverance?

Uh, . . . I'll show myself out now.

I have a Rumble 200 as well.
I added a 115 cabinet just for kicks and thought the sound was amazingly warm!
It really made a big difference.
Fender doesn't make a 115 extension cabinet with the Rumble 200 dimensions, just a 210 I believe. What a shame for anal retentive people like me. I am going to have to use my new Rumble 115 for my permanent 200 extension. I don't believe I'd be happy with the sound of the 210 they built for it. I want the sound more than the good looks of having matching combo and cabinet.

The width of the Rumble 115 is the same as the height of the 200 and 500 combos. Have you tried laying your combo on it's side on top of the 115? Just a thought.

Justify won the Kentucky Derby and the Preakness. Belmont and the Triple Crown await.

I hear you on the size issue, being another person with anal retentive tendencies. So I use the 200c on its left side so it lines up with the 115, just moved the feet from the bottom to the side of the combo - they use the existing corner guard holes so just swap the longer screws with the feet. Then I spun the logo so it was the same angle as the 115 logo. I have gotten so used to the controls on the left I don't even think about it. I use it that way even if I am just using the combo alone, I just plop it on an amp stand still on its side.

And there ya go!

Yes, and Defend failed to repeat his previous wins, while Explain gave reasons for optimism. But, Vindicate swore to get even.

Ok, ok . . . . I'm going, I'm going. . . .

That's a great solution. Maybe you could post a pic of yours sometime since the WIKI page shows a pic without the logo spin and foot mod:

OK, is that left side facing or from in back of?

And envy sat and grumbled...........(right behind you)<edit>Not sure How I did that?!?

Here you go, although not a great picture. This is an older pic, the only difference here is that I had left the feet on the bottom and just added a new set to the left side (which is what it is sitting on). But after getting a few comments from bandmates about not knowing which way was up , I removed those. I will probably put them back, though, because when carrying by the handle and setting it down they were nice to have on the bottom.

OK, could the logo on the combo be located on the upper left to match the cab?

The stock corner location has a piece of triangular wood in the corner of the grill cloth frame to screw it in to. The other corners do not. If you are handy and can glue/staple a similar piece of wood in the upper left then you can screw the logo into that. I have not really tried to do that, but should not be very difficult.

Right on!!!!
I never thought of that.
I'll try it out.
Thanks so much.
Cheers my friends.

Yep, but now what are you going to do about the grill cloth running in different directions?

 

[SoulReflection]

Some things just need to be ignored...even with OCD and anal retentive tendencies .

 

[OldFunBass]

Luckily, my anal retentive tendencies have a limit. I don't really notice the cloth directions so it does not bother me at all. I actually never noticed it until someone on here pointed it out last year, and have never thought about it since.

And NO, don't put the rubber feet back on what was the bottom and is now a side!! Put a handle on the new top that was a side, opposite the new feet! And move that nylon grill-pull strip from the now top right to the new right bottom, where it belongs. Next, get a new amp cover for this new configuration, 'cause it's just too much to cut 'n patch the old cover. And then, and then . . . .

Whew! OCD (not AR, thank you very much) is the gift that just keeps on giving.

Or, just tell your bandmates that the handle is always the top (and see if they remember)...
