Fender Rumble Club

[ricardol]

a Fender Stage 800 amp, I bought it 2 month ago on Gear4music with a whopping 10 years warranty.

This is impressive! Only possible with good quality products...

If you ever need more power, just get the Rumble 115 cabinet!! The difference is other-worldly! I do realize, the 200 is so fantastic on its own, it is hard to fathom. Most of the time I just use the 200 alone, but I have the 115 also. The first time I plugged it into my 200, I just thought "Bob Marley" even though I don't play any of his stuff. The 200 is my favorite bass amp of all-time.

The 115 transforms the sound as you go from room to room

Happy to hear this. Saved me a potential expenditure of over 2 000 € of GAS money.

On a funny note, turn on the Closed Captions. At the beginning of the video, YouTube mis-transcribed "U2" as "YouTube".

Dang! I s'pose there are people who would listen to that and say "Gotta have!" I ain't one of them. I didn't hear a single thing that would make me wanna buy one. I'd hafta hear one with my bass plugged in and EQ set to a tone I could stand. Thankfully, I'm totally set with my 4(B25, R40, R100, R200c [maybe a second R100?]), thus saving both my back and my bank account from serious damage.

So after a few months of it collecting dust, I played my P-bass at a casino gig with my Rumble 800 with 210 extension, the first time I paired the P with the rig. Oh boy, did it sing! It really seems like the Rumble combo was meant to go with the Precision. The last set I played my Ibanez EHB1505 and it just wasn't the same. I've spent most of this afternoon scouting the American Pro II five string to play with. May have to make a decision soon.

Nice bass guitar and rig!
Are you running the SCR-Di between the bass and the amp input, in the effect loop, or bass>SCR-Di>power amp input (effects loop return)?

I sold my Rumble 500C, and Rumble 1X15 cabinet, because I’m not playing the kind of gigs that require that kind of power anymore. Still have my Rumble 100, and I’ve contemplated adding a second one to it, whenever the opportunity comes to play, where 1MAY not be enough (but usually in those circumstances, there’s PA support anyway.)

The effects loop. It does provide a hint of Ampeg drive.

Here's a video I made this morning showing what the Shape Filter Buttons do on a Rumble 100 v3. Just my Precision plugged into the Rumble with no effects and recorded with a Shure SM57.

Well done. For non slappers-like me-CONTOUR is the 'mud button'. VINTAGE 'fattens' it up so nicely, and-as the manual says-BRIGHT gives it 'presence.
As one of the THUNDERBIRD Club members says, "Bass--the original surround sound.

That covers a lot of good tones! Thanks for sharing .

Many thanks for sharing that, Greg. I've linked your post in the Preset Buttons Frequencies Graphs section of the Rumble 500 Frequencies Wiki page for future reference.

That way we can always find your very helpful video!

Excellent demo of the buttons!

Just received my new Rumble 800 combo ( adds to Rumble 800HD head, Rumble 500 head + Rumble 1x12 V2).
Can anyone tell me what the frequency is of the 2nd Order HPF shown on the Block diagram? (30hz,40Hz, 50Hz?)

Hi, John. @John DaBass, you are now member #1592 in the Fender Rumble Club. Congratulations and welcome. Please put that number in your TalkBass Signature for safe keeping. Then make yourself at home here and on your Rumble Club Wiki page, the repository of all Rumbling wisdom and knowledge.

We've discussed that 2nd Order HPF here before, but its frequency isn't published and no one has tested to find it. It should be obvious if using an adjustable external HPF when it gets set to the same frequency. But, there is a 400Hz LPF engaged with the Vintage voice button, even though not shown on the block diagram.

Please tell us a bit about yourself, John, such as your bass experience in general and your Rumble journeys in particular. You'll fit right in here since we have all kinds. But we all love to ... ... ...

Rumble On!

Ready to Rumble! Load up time. Hitting the stage at a local festival at 1pm.
Post gig report to follow on the 500c outdoor capabilities.

 

[Runnerman]

Awesome! ....C500 performed well. Looking very compact in this shot.....

She packed the punch I was looking for though. Clear crisp solid tone up and down the line. Ended up turning off the tweeter. Bright and Vintage buttons on. I didn't have to push her hard at all with the line array PA support. Happy to say that the guitar player complained the bass was too loud on stage....that's got to be a first.
Here's my settings.....just idling really.

Couldn't be happier with this amp. Truly may be the last bass amp I'll ever own.

Thanks for the post gig report. Not at all surprised how well the mighty 500c performed!
