Fender Rumble Club

[SoulReflection]

Gentlemen, may I respectfully suggest you review the DETAILED Presets Templates in "The DROOPY_TX Preset Experience" of the TONE App Support section of the Rumble Club Wiki page, linked in my signature? There are PDF and spreadsheet files that show the DETAILED settings for each of the 100 stock presets on the Stage & Studio amps, and there are blank rows where you can fill in your own new settings! Either print out the PDF version and write on the printout, or use the spreadsheet on your PC to record your settings.

And, please remember, that the Rumble LT25, Studio & Stage sub-thread is specifically intended for such discussions.

I was gonna ask, what's a GOF, but then I saw that line in your signature. You guys even have a club. Fun! Er....grumpy.....

 

[G-Dog]

Congrats...not everyone is a GOF.

And even fewer of us admit it and have obtained an official number in the Get off my LAWN! "Grumpy Old Frts" club!

Grumpy is a way of life (once you qualify)....lets you get away with a lot, to a certain extent ...

Heyas Rumblers! I already posted this on the combo thread, but this one's a little more focused. My Fender Rumble Stage 800 was finally delivered yesterday! This thing is amazing. Just thought I'd share, and maybe get a membership number here, if you guys are doing that.

My footswitch just arrived today, haven’t even tried it out yet - looks slick with your new Rumble!

Yeah, Rob, the 4-button footswitch comes with the Stage 800, but most of us think it's equally important for the Studio 40, too. Glad to see you goin' "whole hog" with the footswitch. You'll be glad you did!

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone! Those links you ...uh...linked have been very helpful. I'm finding out that there's a pretty big learning curve with this amp. The Tone App surpassed my expectations, and I'm expecting to get a lot of use out of it.

I'm really digging this amp. The problem is, I haven't really been able to let it scream yet. I live in a town home duplex that shares a wall with someone else, and my wife started panicking about noise when I turned the volume from 7:00 (all the way down) to 8:30. I can't imagine what this thing sounds like at noon or 3:00.

A quick update:
I played around with the footswitch and Rumble so much yesterday that today my fingers, and right hand wrist and forearm were hurting pretty bad. But, it was soooooooo fun! Moderation in all things, right?

I thought so too until I just dived right in. Fender did a great job making this super easy to learn (imho) - add the tone app (which is fantastic) and easy just got easier!

Dan, little beni hendrix (jimi's cousin) is right. The TONE App does make your Stage much easier to use (and play with.) But don't hold your breath waiting to crank it to noon, much less 3! You may not be able to afford the repair costs of everything it blows away!

Rob, that's the evil little secret. It's so much fun, it hurts! And don't go getting crazy ideas about cranking the volume, like Danthoin did. Almost a year and a half after getting my Studio I've still never cranked higher than noon, even with two dozen other acoustic instruments (and my bass volume was only about 7-8!).

This is to anyone who has the 200c, 500c or 800c and uses the 210 ext cab
Does it feel sturdy when stacked?
I just got the 800c and will be purchasing the 210 cab next week and was wondering if they stack nicely and safely or not

Thanks for any help in advance

The 500c and 2X10" extension cabinet stack beautifully and safely. The combo will not move. Plus, you will experience a fuller sound.

 

[Gustopher]

I want to get an amp stand for my Rumble 500... but then I just think, why not spring for the extension cab? Serves a similar purpose, gets me a fuller sound and looks great... the only loser is my wallet!

 

[John Stephen]

I like your thinking.

So. Did the Monday charity open mic/jam tonight. Amp(s) provided:2 R100's daisy chained, one aimed toward the drummer and guitarist. Heat/humidity too much for the 67 THUNDERBIRD so I chose to play my 95 Les Paul 5er. It was 100F actual-not "feels like"-when I got there(outdoor venue). I was sweating like the star attraction at a hanging.
I get to play a lot o' stuff with this bunch that my regular group doesn't do, so it's like a busman's* holiday for me. Our group does mostly 60's/70's tunes. These guys are all over the eras. Many of the songs I've never played but I've heard 'em enuff that if they give me the key, I can come up with an appropriate bass line, if not the original. Too bad it doesn't pay. Then again, I gots nothing else to do on a Monday night. There sure as hell isn't any sports to watch.

I hope there are lower wattage version of rumble stage 〘 Rumble Club 〙power by 150/200 watts with 12 in driver in this NANM 2020 , and extent matching 12 in cab.

I get that and don't disagree. However, 7ender-and almost everybody else-is trying to make big power in progressively smaller packages. Like you, I have a soft spot for 12's, but it seems most players want multiple 10's or a 15 so I don't foresee anyone, esp. Rumble, coming out with something with 12's. See "Rumble Club Wiki" for the dreamed of 2x12 cab.
