Fender Rumble Club

Got my 500 combo today, first impression is I like it a lot! Need more time with it, though. Dig the simplicty and the sound. I would say volume-wise it is as loud at 9 oclock master as my mb115 is at about 11 oclock. If anybody needs a deal on one or a stage 800 (my seller says mid-August on those), pm me and I'll give you info on where I bought it. The quote he gave me on a Stage 800 was over $60 less than open-box ones I've seen priced.
First and only mod was done within an hour or so of getting it, sorry everybody. The silver just wasn't for me.

500 combo

I have seen a few blonde rumbles, but i am yet to see one of these in real life. I call them unicorn rumbles.
I swear these are not photoshop they are real! But I can only find pics of the 25, 100, and 500 combos on the internet, maybe they didn't make the others in this colour?

Enjoy ur hunting if u can find one i suggest u snatch one up!

Yes! They are the Special Stealth Editions exclusive to Guitar Center & Musician's Friend.
 
is the stage 800 big enough for a wedding gig. Like medium to large wedding receptions and stuff?
is the 500? or will it struggle?

also do the quality of the effects on the stage 800 match the quality of using a real life pedal on an amp?
can u still use pedals with the 800?

* BTW prepare yourselves these are some pretty stupid questions coming up... *
does the 800 have an xlr out with ground lift too?
does the 800 have a horn option too?
does it have the same speaker as found in the rest of the v3 lineup?
* i warned you! :rolleyes: *

If you have the 500 and the possibility of an extension cab and that's not loud enough, may God have mercy!! I recently played smallish bar gig with no PA support with my 200 watt mb115. Its volume at 11 oclock is what my rumbles is at 9 oclock.
 
With 100 presets involved, it would be great to "divide and conquer" with several owners here contributing a few each. We just need someone to start it . . . somehow . . . however that's done . . . ?

ps: I just added a link to the Fender TONE APP SUPPORT Webpage to the Fender Rumble Club Wiki Page. to help new Stage & Studio owners (and researchers).

I don't have time to write them down today, but this is a start maybe?

FYI: I think the Small Room on patch 04 should be after the amp. I may have fiddled with that.

Happy Fender Friday!

Thanks very much, @Michael B, for those videos. I transcribed the first one into a written list of what the stock Rumble Stage and Studio Presets are comprised of (.PDF file). Please, any and all Stage and Studio owners and/or Tone App users review this .PDF file and advise any corrections needed.

Then, I linked this .PDF Preset List and all 3 videos to the Fender TONE APP SUPPORT under the Fender TONE APP SUPPORT Webpage section. I hope this is of some value to Stage and Studio enthusiasts here.

Rumble On!

You da dog! Thanks! If I get some spare time I may build a spreadsheet with this info and space for the dial and eq setting too. That's important stuff on these presets and that would allow others to enter modifications and new to the list.
 
I have been searching the web sites and stores for another Rumble v2 112 cab for a cool mini rig,
Right now I use a BXR 115 cab (no amp head) and the R 112, with a Carvin BX500h and it rocks. I will eventually get a Rumble 200h or 500h,

I know bigger is better :D
Heaps of V3 112 Rumble cabs around Australia...go figure. Bet shipping is a killer to US.. I'll paste the links anyway.

Nothing to figure. They don't sell well.
It’s a pity, but not really surprising. Most 500 owners pick a 210 extension cab, 200 owners pick a 115. The 112 sits without a clear purpose somewhere inbetween, perceived as not quite perfect for either, although it actually works great for both. The 112 basically has an identity problem, which is probably what killed it in the end.
