If I knew where to get some of this*, I might do my 3 Rumbles.
*Kasino grill cloth:

Ooh, ooh! Brainstorm! I'll carefully remove the grill cloth from the Kasino-should be able to do at least the R200c and R100-and get new 7ender cloth for the Kasino.
(note to @G-Dog: see if you can 'photo shop' this)

Got a used Rumble 210 cab in excellent condition on Sweetwater. Now I'll be using the full power of my R500 and R200 combos

One day...

For sake of curiosity:

Is FR Studio 40 amp able to work with 4 Ohms load? Does anyone know this secret? Fender didn't disclose it since there's no extension cab socket, but I'd like to know if

Been really loving this “Classic” rumble stack. So odd how all 3 of these pieces fell together at the same time. All are in like new condition as NOS and all had tags and showroom stickers still attached. And for under $500. The only thing is that the 350 head is missing two of its rubber feet. Anyone know where I can source some?

Pretty much any hardware store/department. They usually come in 4-packs, so replace all 4 at once.

Look into Invalid Link Removed, Parts-Express, MojoTone, eBay and other electronics supply and/or hardware sources. Most all will be carrying Penn-Elcom, even if they are with private labels. Find the one that most closely matches the size of the feet you do have and check the size and style of the screws used on the other feet. You may or may not find the screws needed. I've built a few amps and cabinets and the suppliers I listed seem to be the most readily available and decent selections, AES being my number one source.

My Rumble 200 didn't come with any feet. I contacted Fender, but they didn't have anything listed and just recommended I get something similar from other sources. I got a set the seemed to be approximately the same size and just got some small sheet metal screws that appeared to be the appropriate size and used them the secure the feet.

Speaking of 2x12 or even 1x12 does anyone know why Fender and many other bass amp manufacturers offer lots of 10" and 15" combos and cabinets but 12" are so difficult to find?

Apparently, the market said so. Personally, I find the single 12 in the Rumble 100C perfectly acceptable. If I was playing out, I would like to compare all 3 sizes, including 2 R100Cs chained together.

Most of my gigs, I get by fine with my R100. I've played through 2xR100s. Just about perfect. Saturday night, I used my R200c and the single 15 sounded great-at the volume I was playing-but it gets a little 'farty' at higher volumes/lower pitches.

All the more reason to use a HPF with those soap bar pups or, try a Fender P .

Well, the 7ender P is definitely out(I've never even held one, but I know my Gibson/Epi trained arthritic hands wouldn't like its neck profile/radius/whatever). AFA an HPF, I've considered it but it would be one more thing I'd need to plug in-and have wires underfoot-and alotta places we play are short on wall sockets and also take a dim view of orange extension cords snaking across the floor. There's currently only one place we play that has a stage-and it has one 2 receptacle outlet. The others have a band 'area', flat on the dance floor in a corner.

Well, "Beano" doesn't work for those unfortunate equipment sounds so, do you gotta do. I know you will have a handle on it.

Hey all,

Just got an email that I thought I'd pass along...

Sam Ash discount code. DEEP. 20% off items $299 & up.
Not sure how long it's good for.

This might help you get one of those MAP items that's never discounted.


I ordered a Yamaha 734A to go with my recently purchased Rumble 500C, at a discount no one else had.

Hope it helps someone.

Carry on....

Owner's manual states "POWER AMP OUTPUT 40 watts into 8Ω" and the internal speaker is 8Ω, so I'd say those are its limits.

I'll second AES. When I was building/modding/repairing amps, I bought a lot from them. I don't think I used the other two sources but have heard only good about them.
