Fender Rumble Club

Thanx, I ready them so for that I asked being not interested in the combo and being not sure the hardware is the same in the two models. Do you own a non combo version, correct? Thanx again


No, sorry. I own a Rumble Studio 40 combo and a Rumble 500 combo. But, I'm an avid follower of this thread and only very occasionally does anyone complain of a noisy fan, most often in the combos.

Hopefully, some Rumble 800 HD owners will comment on their fans' behavior.

Is the Fender Rumble 800hd bass head fan noisy? Also, tis the fan always on or it turns on only when required? Thanx
I have the R200cV3 combo. The fan is Always On. If there is NO other sound in the room, ie: no Talking, no HVAC running, no coffee maker, and certainly no sound at all from the speaker…Then and Only then do I hear it. I just finished 2 hours of practice with plenty of gaps in playing. The buzz from my Fender JB was the only thing I heard then….When playing my home built with split coil Bartolinis, I only heard the same type humm from the PA. Totally forgot there is a fan until I got on TB and saw this thread again.

I've had my Rumble 200 for a long time and I've never heard a fan. So, I just went and fired it up. Sure enough, if I put my ear to the back, I can hear it. Barely. It's quiet enought that I wasn't even aware of it.

Yup. I've had my 200c since 11/2015. I didn't know there was a fan 'til it was mentioned in Rumble Club.
