Fender Rumble Club

Wow, @Franklin Henry, that is two killer combos to be using simultaneously. Have you tried running the mono FX Send out of the 800 into the FX Return of the 500 and then stacking the 800 on top of the 500 to get it up closer to your ear level? That could only be surpassed by running the Stereo FX Send out of the 800 into the FX Return of two 500s!

Welcome to the Fender Rumble Club.
With Rumble 210 extension cabinets that would be: 12 10" woofers; 6 horns, and 1800 Clean Continuous Watts!!! :smug: :woot: :jawdrop: :D Rumbles Rule! :D
 
Check this website out Gremson..a few Rumble members have opted for these stands..they double as isolation stands as well as angle the amp up towards the player...link below.
Note: Your amp must be at least 15 " wide to fit on this stand and from memory I think the 100 is about 16.5"..others who own a Mud Stand may be able to help out..I like the look of them too.

There is a smaller mini version (pictured below) that @GonePlaid owns which would suit the 100 that you own. I believe its mentioned on the Mud Stand website also. Ask GP about it and how he likes it, how lightweight it is and how quickly to assemble it etc etc. I'm not affiliated with them btw.

Well now, the little wonder did great. Surprisingly loud and just a bit wooly when pushed, goes deeper than one would think.
I'm going to line the cab. Should I use foam or polyester fiber?
 
haven't tried it but it sounds like a winning combo. I am a new owner of the 800 so I'm still fishing for the diamonds, or pearls, lol. Read through he extended manual and there are so many functions. I have a feeling that it is going to take a minute to utilize it efficiently. I can say the gig last night was as I expected. used a basic Motown setting back a little bass off with the higher volume and sounded great. I used a undefined user preset for the rest of the gig just to get a taste of the amp sounds and its no doubt a winner. i can't imagine the how much smaller my foot print will be when I get this thing under my belt. Haven't been this excited over the task of learning a piece of equipment in a while.
 
I have been using Clean Focus, Basic TV Front, Basic '50 bass and Scoopy Snacks
On these, I may adjust the EQ just based on location and gig type.... So I have not modified them much...
Going to Try a few different ones at a gig tonight will post how it goes later
Thanks Jeremy. Looking forward to trying those out. So many options.
 
Please post an update about your gig with the EUB.I don't own one but I'd love to hear what one sounds like through any Rumble. Definitely on my wish list.

Well the Rumble shinned again! Did a gig using my EUB and it sounded great! Cut the high and high-mid on the amp and I had a nice warm and full tone. The EUB I use is a NS Design WAV Omnibass. I run it through a Xotic Bass RC Booster which is velcro’d to the back of the bass (like having a preamp in the bass). I shot some video, but came out like crap. I’ll see if I can extract any usable audio from it and if so post it.
