Great!2 rumble 15s
good news though. It wasn’t the rumble, I forgot I plugged into another amp, it was that one that started to burn.

Thank you for my number. The Yamaha B100 was from a combo with a 15" speaker. It sounded like butter but the danged thing weighted in at about 90 lbs. This Rumble thread has been very cool. Yes, Rumble On!
Fender Rumble 200 just unboxed.

Might be considered sacrilege to the Rumble club but I picked up an almost mint Hartke 4.5 XL410 to pair with my 500c this weekend and all I can say is, WOW!! Lucky my neighbors like me. LOL
It is a bit on the heavy side but sounds phenomenal. View attachment 4323292 View attachment 4323292

I decided to replace my 10-12 y/o Fender Rumble 100 1x15 practice amp with a newer, lighter model. So, with the holiday sale price of 15% off, I picked up the Fender Rumble 100 1x12 and I can't believe the power and sound this little amp cranks out. I'm very impressed with this lightweight Rumble!

Well, it's about time you showed up here, Guy! @405BassGuy, you are now member #1367 in the Fender Rumble Club. Congratulations and welcome. Put that number in your TB Signature for safe keeping. And feel free to browse your Rumble Club Wiki page of all assembled Rumbling wisdom and knowledge. I'd love to see a video of your V1 100 showing off its pulsing red lights! Can you believe it's been 18 years since the V1 Rumbles were introduced?
Please tell us a bit about yourself and your bass experience in general and your Rumble journey in particular. You're bound to fit right in here 'cause we have all kinds. But we all love to ... ...
Rumble On!

Very nice!Thanks for adding me to the club, @G-Dog. I actually played with Sunn amps way back in the day so the move to Fender Rumble was a natural transition. In all honesty, the Rumble 100 is my new practice amp and I play an Ampeg PF-500 with 2 2x10 cabs when jamming with a drummer. However, I do have a Fender Rumble 4x10 cab for those times when I really need the extra power.

... .... Which actually brings me to my next question... ... ... so: how does the pre/post switch on the 800 head affect the effects loop? I'm assuming post includes the loop but the manual says the master volume is left out?
I don’t think I ever came back and posted pics of my rumbles
Rumble Stage 800 and Rumble 40 along with some bass looking thing.

Breakthrough in Rumble 40 Sound Problem
So, it seems that GonePlaid and G-Dog were on the right track. Referring back here:
Fender Rumble Club
I finally followed their advice and stuck old socks in the vent holes of my R40, and the sound was significantly improved. So, I guess I'll try batting tomorrow.
Should this batting be a sheet or something? I'll check back in the thread.
Thanks to GonePlaid for the original idea and G-Dog for the tip on trying socks as a preliminary test. And thanks to the other members that gave suggestions as well.
