Not showing for me. Just covers for a Blackstar combo and Blackstar amp head, and a bunch of mic covers.
That is odd. They were shown when I copied the link and now they aren't. I ordered mine when google brought them up in a search the other day. I have received order confirmation from Adorama. I ordered two as I plan to add a second R100C when the price is right
.
See my follow up post. If you are interested, I would call them and see if you can place an order. It worked for me with Fender, when I ordered my R100 a day after their sale.
They must've gotten slammed. All my R's already have covers. So did my R112-which went with it.
Here is the Rumble 100 Cover.

It's now on backorder.

I wonder if these links will work for others. If not just put Fender Rumble Cover into the search engine. It looks like they are all on backorder.

I edited my post to add they are all on backorder. I am very tempted to order a cover for my Rumble 200. It is only $13.36 with tax.

Hmm. Might hafta order one-just in case I break down and get a second R100.The second link includes more Rumble amp/cab covers for the same price...yes, on backorder but I am in no rush
It'll happen-watching for another sale.

Ha, that's why I ordered two covers. I have some rewards points with MF that is making a second R100 very attractive
. I don't really need one but, I am losing my amp stand when I sell my R115 cab and I prefer the sound of my Ampeg PF20T through the R100.

Plus, you've got a backup if you blow a tube on the Ampeg.
I'm not a fan of Ampeg's 'baked in' tone-which I think is more cab related than head, but it would be interesting to hear your rig(or a pf50t). Tubes>Rumble cabs. Hmm.Ha, that's why I ordered two covers. I have some rewards points with MF that is making a second R100 very attractive
I found the baked in tone is definitely the cabs. Both the Ampeg PF-500 (that I returned) and the 20T sound better through the Fender R100 and R115 cab, IMHO. Both those amps are very dry when I run them through my DAW. They need a Fender tone stack to make me happy.
Even though I'm a Gibson(/Epi)bass fan, I've always preferred the 'sounds' I get outta 7ender amps/cabs.
(Shh! Don't tell my Kasino I said that.)
Such a struggle for me to not buy a Hofner violin bass, or something like it. I know one of these days I will lose that battle....
I hear mixed stories about them, some love them, say they can get a lot of different tones, etc., others say the opposite, and the bridge is a pain, setup is a pain, etc. I have no idea.

A friend of mine has a mid-level Hofner and a Rogue. He prefers the deeper tones of the Hofner.
I bought the Rogue because it reminded me of the old Gibson of the '50s. I was happy to have it even if it ended up a wall-hanger. After playing it, I was surprised how light and comfortable it was. I put LB flats on and gave it a proper setup. The floating bridge is a bit of a pain but there are YT videos to help out. The main thing is to mark the location of the bridge after intonation. If it gets bumped or you change strings again, it helps to have the proper bridge reference point.
The switches are odd and I keep thinking of changing them out for VVT or VBT. I did the later on my Jag SS PJ and it turned out very nice for tone setting.
A question for all you Rumblers:
Background: After at least 10 years away in the acoustic world I've been sucked back into a rock band. Good fun, but gear has changed a lot since I bought my last bass amp (in 2004). I still have that amp, a Mesa Boogie Walkabout Scout. 12" speaker, 300 watts, it's still my #1. But it's also 51 pounds. Hey, it was a real improvement over the 4x10 and rack case I use to lug around.
The Boogie will stay my #1, but now that I'm schlepping it to rehearsals on a regular basis I'm thinking about getting something lighter for rehearsals and to have a backup just in case, which brings me to the Rumble.
My local GC had both the 800 and a 100 that I tried. Sound of the 800 was more to my liking, the 100 was fine. Budgetwise the 800 is in budget even new, but that's about my top since this is to be a spare/rehearsal item. Just missed out on a 500 for sale used locally, not much else used around here these days (small market).
So my question: yes more is always more, but is the 100 reasonable for rehearsal (2 guitars, keys, drums) with that nice small size and lower cost, or is the 500/800 enough more versatile to be worth the cost. Sort of a philosophical question, interested to hear what folks think.
