Just a sip before you sing! Amazing how a shot will clear the flem from your throat! Unless the flem is part of your vocal sound! Lol!

It can take quite a bit of water, actually. The 105 means 105 proof.
It’s very good indeed. And at 60% ABV, it’s very good value. I don’t know if bass and whisky are entwined, but those who enjoy the best things in life usually appreciate both.

Play/practice 'til 10 PM(or whatever yer local noise ordinance is)then drink.
Welcome Rumbler # 1071! How do you like that Alpha Omega? I'm not familiar with it. Rumble On!
It's hella sick!! It was so many tone options. It never loses the bottom end even when you go full distortion. All my previous effects pedals, the bottom end was so far removed it was like I was playing a down tuned guitar. I really love it and can not recommend it enough!!

I'd really like to see a nice Rumble 350!

Welcome Rumbler # 1072! Sorry to hear that. And I missed your post as well. Hope you can get it fixed so you can Rumble on!.
Hey my brothers in bass, I have a Rumble 500 and I have always wondered what the famed 'Ampeg sound' actually sounds like, having never had or played through an Ampeg.
Can someone suggest some tone settings that would replicate the 'Ampeg sound' for me please? Thanks in advance!

No, but thanks for finding them for me. I don't understand why I've got this thread subbed and still miss posts.
I've missed some when I miss the "There are more posts. View them?" notification.
Check out the Fender Rumble Wiki Pages and find the Tone Pool. Someone may have already posted settings for that. Fender Rumble Club Wiki Page | TalkBass.com
I am new to playing bass. As a matter of fact, you can say I’m an infant. I ordered an lt25 because I don’t plan on ever playing in a band, but want to learn as a hobby. Anyway, The amp arrived today and I inboxed it. There was a rattle going on. When I took it out of the box, it was a bit lopsided. I checked and the rear-bottom-left corner is dented. The rattle I can see through the port is the speaker’s magnet. There is no damage to the box or I wouldn’t have accepted it. I’m totally bummed out. Now I gotta take it to Guitar City for an exchange.
My question is: I don’t know if I should just put a little more money and get the Studio 40. Is it the same as the lt25 with more watts? Would I be happier with a louder speaker even if I will never use it to play a live gig? Any opinions would be appreciated.

Welcome! Good to have you here.
IIRC, the Studio 40 is about twice the price of the LT25. You might consider getting a Rumble 40 instead for the same price as the LT25. It has a little more headroom, a traditional type of EQ, a decent overdrive capability, and a lot less complexity. There’s plenty of flexibility for you to learn the basics of bass playing, and it’s a great amp for home practice. If and when you feel you’d like to play in front of an audience, the line out connection of the Rumble 40 will allow you to connect to the venue’s PA system for the cost of a 25 foot mic cable.
I’ve been playing for a long time, and I own one. “It’s little, it’s lovely, it’s light.”
I would suggest going with more power. You say that you do not plan on playing in a band now... but stranger things have happened. I would go with the Rumble 100. It's not going to break the bank and if you decide to go the band route, it would probably suffice for playing small clubs and rehearsals. Just my $0.02
Studio 40 has more presets. Lets you download user created tones. Has bluetooth and wifi so can control with phone or tablet (sounds weird but neat when it works). I dont use all the tones and havent seen a lt2t so cant say how useful the extra tones are. Studio40 also has better display for tweaking the tones.

As "an infant" to playing bass I would agree most wholeheartedly with Ronzo's advise to start with a more traditional bass amp, like the Rumble 40 (non-Studio). It should be an even swap for your damaged Rumble LT25 (same price).
The LT25 and it's big brother, the Studio 40, are modeling bass amps that are much more complicated than traditional bass amps. Fun for experienced bass players but, could be confusing for "infants".
You don't say if you have any other musical experience, which may be relevant, such as guitar. If you're a guitarist with experience with modeling guitar amps you might better understand the modeling bass amps. Otherwise, stick with traditional bass amp.
Hope this helps.
