Fender Rumble Club

I stand corrected. I'll have to take a refresher course in Warner Brothers physics.

Hey, Goner, how would you like to open your famous garage door and see this?

Uhhhhhh. No.

 

[G-Dog]

... ... Anyway, as G-dog says, Rumble On. My question is, does anyone have experience using any of the Rumble cabs with the Acoustic Image Clarus head? I've got the latter, and a Markbass cab that sounds fine but seems to get heavier and heavier, the older I get. Wondering if there's a lighter-weight Rumble cab that would work well with it.

John, there's bound to be a GC, SA, or something near you that would let you try your amp on a Rumble cab. TRY IT! You'll like it.

[John Stephen]

Capital idea, G-Dog. I am fortunate to have a very good GC (helpful staff). I will bring my Clarus over there and ask to plug 'er into a Rumble or two.

It's simple. Having never studied law, the good guys are always exempt from the laws of physics.

But, apparently, the bad guys had studied law!

Right, NOW I remember. I won't need to enroll in Warner Brothers State after all. Thanks for saving me the tuition.

As I kid I just thought that stuff was funny. Looking at it now, I think it was brilliant. Absolutely brilliant.

That stuff still cracks me up. The new computerized versions have Wile E. go off the cliff-but not hit the ground-sanitized. The little puff of dust was sorta the icing.

I would try setting my Rumble up in front of that and see if I could blow it away.

Truly LOL. Priceless!

If they only have combos, plug into the FX Return. 200c for the 115. 500c for the 210.

I think the primary difference will be the compression tweeter. On the combos, you get OFF and ON (-6 dB). On the cabs, you get OFF, -6 dB and full ON.

 

[John Stephen]

Thanks for the info. Very helpful.

 

[Deleted member 268085]

That's LINE level, by the way. Anything more than that will make smoke.

Nah. These: and that doesn't include my R112 cab and R100, bought after this pic was tooken. I'm too lazy to take 'em all out there again. L to R: R40 over R200c, Peavey Max 110, Kasino 200W/2x15, Peavey KB-300, Bassman 25.

 

[EatS1stBassist]

Help!! My Rumble 200 is giving it up. Rehearsal Saturday afternoon and after an hour of playing time she starts sounding heavily distorted. Seems like I'm not having to turn it up as loud either. But sound quality was bad enough even the drummer asked "***?" Anyone had problems with these?

Could be the effect loop in back?

 

[Kipp Harrington]

Len, that's a lovely looking and, I'm sure, great sounding rig! I just feel compelled to remind you, and everyone else here, that the 115 cab is only rated to 300W continuous while the 800 HD can put up to 400W continuous into it, if turned up too much. Just, please be careful, same as you do with the elf 2x8 cab, m'kay?

Whew. Thanks for letting me get that off my chest. Just some of my OCD, I guess. Sorry. Carry on.

I think you gave me the same warning, G-Dog... nothing wrong with bringing potential damage to people's attention. I only run my 500 head paired with either my 410 or both the 410 and 115 cabs. Right now, with the band I'm in, I am running both... and loving it! Although I now put the 115 on top of the 410

Yeap G-Dog gave that warning also and it's cool. But if you read my post a few down, as I said I bought this new Rumble 800 and 1x15 cuz they sound so gooooooood - but they will probably never leave my office. At my church gig I play thru the house system and don't need an amp.

But it sure looks nice ! ! ! ! ! !

But as I said I like all the help G-Dog has giving me as all the help all of you have shared.

Thanks again to all

But ya know - Rumble amps sound so good but I think look even better.

Rumble on and on and on.

Thanks for understanding, guys. I don't wanna be a stick in the mud. I want people to rock, Rumble and roll to their hearts content! And keep on rockin'!! On, and on, and on!!!

Just takes a little prior planning to ensure a Rumblin' good time, over and over again. Power ratings are there to help.

Maybe take another shot w/ everything when the weather cools off. It's 84F at the moment(!).

I took the 800 Stage to rehearsal last night, I have to say I am very impressed. Plenty of volume and great tone. I settled on preset 35, Orange/dirt, very convincing!
I've needed a pro portable setup for some time and this fills the bill nicely . Will it replace my big rigs? Probably not but it could.
