Just pulled the trigger on a 500 combo. $399 used from the localist GC to me. I'll be picking it up tomorrow.

Hey Rev, that sounds like a great deal! I have no need for a 500 (have a Stage 800), but I'm always wondering if I should get one anyway. At a price like that, I'd be very tempted to pull the trigger. Have fun with it!
I just ordered a Rumble 800 HD and 210 cabinet this morning from ZSounds. It was in stock when I ordered it…and just got the notification that it’s backordered. I thought Fender discontinued them? Now I’m worried I might not receive it at all 
.
I plan on selling either my 500 combo or 100 combo to help cover the 800 (if it comes). I got it so I can put it in my rack and run much shorter cables to my WA76. I really like the pre-post option, as well (should be on every Rumble IMO). I figure with 800 watts, I’ll never be starved playing outdoors, once I add another 210 cab.

I believe they’re still current. Both are listed on fender.com.
They were on that container ship that got stuck in the Suez Canal.

And I felt good getting a 100 for that price a few years ago!

Now I have to decide if I like the silver or black grill more...I think the black because that's what I wear on stage, but...
Had the first gig with my band last week and had to use an old Behringer 350 combo to daisy chain my Studio 40. That thing must have weighed 80#. That's when my wife agreed to let me purchase a new amp (as long as I don't keep the old one
). Less than half the weight with a bit more umph (a lot more if I ever get an extension cab). I'll get a chance to run it through its paces tomorrow.I thought I got a good deal on my Studio 40 at 329.
Here’s my new 800 HD with my GR Bass 1x12. It arrived at 3, got used at rehearsal at 6. Sounds excellent!
I saw that. I may have bad info, I read somewhere that it's been discontinued. Fender doesn't have them in stock though, either.
I tend to ignore such things unless I know the source. GC and MF both claim to have them in stock. Fender could be out simply because of supply chain issues. Those are still running rampant, especially in the semiconductor industry, but in assembly lines as well. It took me over a year to get a new bicycle (no semiconductors 8^) that met my needs, and when one finally became available two hours away, I went for it.
There are supply chain problems all over the world, and many businesses have problems meeting demand. Granted, fender.com is not always the most reliable guide to what products are available at any given time, but if a product is discontinued, they normally remove it from their website at once. I think you may take it that it’s still current, but temporarily unavailable.
Well zSounds says it will be in stock 8/9, so hopefully, that’s accurate. I’m doing their purchase plan (which is great, btw), so that’s the reason I’m not just cancelling and going somewhere else.
