I’ve always preferred 10s but ever since I got this rumble 115 they have stolen my heart. I suppose instead of the 410 I could get another 210 and 115 cab.

I added a 210 to my 200c and man what a difference! Huge and solid!Aye, I love my 500. Just knowing that they discontinued it and the "what if breaks, how do i replace it" What do I replace it with? Only option now is the 800, so I was wondering how it sounded compared to the 500.
I'm with you on the 410 cab. That is what I wanted to begin with, but the 410's were out of stock when I ordered the head. So I got the 210 cab. And they only had 1 of those in stock at the time. It would be about a year before I got the 2nd 210 cab. I didn't really feel the need for the 2nd, be we had a pretty high profile show coming up and we wanted to show off a bit, so I got the 2nd cab to make my rig look bigger. Our lead guitar was bringing a head and 412 cab to the show. Which was way different for him, he normally uses a 112 Tube Combo, either a Fender or Mesa. Our singer/guitar added a second cab to his 212 combo, so I thought I'd be a big shot too and add that 2nd cab. Turns out I really like having that cab there for more sound and push the amp a little less, but mainly to get it closer to my ear vs. the back of my knees. I really LOVE the small footprint, but HUGE sound I get from the rig being stacked 210 cab on to of 210 cab. But with that said, 90% of my gigs go to my GK MB212II combo, just easier to plug and play that combo vs. head and cab setup. As we normally play packaged shows with plenty of other bands and need to get on and off the stage quickly. This way I have more time to help our drummer get set up and broke down.
With that, I can see a future of being a stage jerk with the 800 head and 2 x 410 cabs, just because. I mean, come on, I'm grinning just thinking of that. Totally not necessary, but come on- how fun would that be at your back?
Great, isn’t it?I added a 210 to my 200c and man what a difference! Huge and solid!View attachment 4166201
Thanks! Yes I really love it!Great, isn’t it?
Congratulations!
Here’s what my 800H pushes air out of at 2 Ohms: GB 212T and an Eden EX115. All 3 drivers ate 300w and both cabs 4 Ohms. ... ...

It does. Tried the 212 on top but the 15 there is definitely best, and vertical is also best dispersion, to my ears. This is a simple, solid rig that didn’t break the bank. Low gain and master at 10-2 o’clock is plenty in any situation and keeps things super clear. I have minimum pedals to add compression, overdrive (just a touch) into the front; and amp models/multi-effects and a Bass EQ through the loop. I haven’t found a good way to use the 800H’s overdrive channel as to me it sucks bass frequency and is more fizzy than I like. This Fender head is a bargain and does the 2 Ohms I needed at the price I could afford.Awesome, Groovy! And the 15" is up top where you can hear it best.
But, you know, as I've often mentioned to many 115 Rumblers, that 300W 15" could possibly get up to 400W if you crank the 800 HD. So, be careful, aw'ight?

I searched, but can't seem to find a club for those of us who use and love the Fender Rumble series of amps. Any interest?
I've been playing at home with my Rumble 30 since late January and it seems to me like this amp puts out a good share for being so small! Originally I was looking at the Rumble 15 but went with the 30 because of the extra input jack, more wattage, and I read online reviews which said the 30 would be good enough to play with a band in a small venue even versus the 15 which didn't have as much bang.
Hope to hear form some fellow Rumble fans soon!
So this makes me the founding member, #1? I feel this is a big honor for someone so new on the forum!
