Awesome! Can you consider the 200c?
I really love mine!! Great sound!! Funny, I almost bought a 100c today but didn’t pull the trigger! As soon as I was through checking out the ads online I opened up TB and your post was the first one I read!!Hope you get a good one!:thumbsup:

I been own a 200/150 in past, never meet single problem in that few years before move to Hartke KB15( better and solid Low B ).

I also found that 100C lacking some depth and creamy voice that present on 200C. I believe thats the voice different between 12 Vs 15 Driver and cab size.

Is the 210 louder? It is rated higher as to watts.

I have not noticed any difference. I have played both with a loud drummer without having any difficulty. I only use Rumble amps so I have no experience with using the cabs with other brands. I currently have the Stage on top of a 15" cab. I don't even get close to pushing it hard.

After months of pondering of which way to assemble a small portable rig that sounds as good as it looks, this is where I ended up. The Fender Rumble 210x2 along with my GK 400RB. At some point down the road I’ll pick up a Rumble 500, but this rig as it stands is incredible! All of it weighs less than just my old cab....and I’m including the bass!!! Haha! Rumble on!!!

Cool Rig. Congrats. Curious on how you like the sound of the GK head through the Rumble cabs.
 
Congrats! Love mine. Be prepared for a LONG test drive!

You might want to consider getting one of these 1-button footswitches. This one is more expensive, but a) it's heavy and b) it's got a useful feedback LED on it. Great for toggling the Overdrive circuit

I am working on getting some quotes on a few custom mini 1 Button Foot Latch Switch with a LED to be made, in fact I having 2 of them to be made for my 100v3 and 75, and for less than 30 bucks each with shipping, with no cable, the OEM Fender Pedal is like 6 x 6 x 4 and is too big and want something smaller.

I really like the sound of the cabs with this head. The 400rb is plenty of power and has enough tone options to dial in something I like. The rig is just a week old so my time with it will only make it better. These cabs are incredible and adding the second made it that much better. I’ll report back when I’ve had some more time and maybe after a couple of gigs.
 
Good news / bad news. The good news is that I have a Studio 40 and love it. The bad news is that I was just asked to play in a Southern rock cover band and don't know if the 40 is big enough. Just putting the band together so I've got some time to find new equipment if I need to. I've never gigged before so I'm at a loss as to what I'll need. Is the 40 big enough if I add a cab?

Welcome Rumbler #952! I don't think the 40 will do it for a typical Southern Rock cover band. Depending on how many people in the band, how loud they play, and whether they run everything through the FOH.
If they run everything through the FOH, the 40 would do fine; otherwise you would want a 200 or 500. The 200 and the 15 are the only Rumble amps I don't own, but many who play the 200 love it and gig with it. Good luck with the new gig and Rumble On!

Congratulations @badRocks. No, you can't add an extension cabinet to the Studio 40. Unless the entire band is going through the PA all the time, you'll need a Rumble 200 + cab at least if not a 500 or Stage 800.
