It has been a month since I posted but I just want to thank you all the people that helped to decide between the combos. Sorry for my English as is not my native language.

I'll(try to)remember that if I ever get a second one.
Old post and all that...
I recently purchased a Rumble 500 and the matching 2x10 cabinet. I would like to change the knobs too, but no matter how hard I pull, they don't come off. I don't want to break it, so does anyone have any ideas? Are they glued to the thing or something?
Thanks.
They're not glued, the classic D shaped friction fit shafts/knobs.
I opted for the Rumble 800 and it's and absolute beast. The combo works very well with a loud drummer. I play mostly stoner and riff based music and this combo works so well in the mix.
I've doubted a lot but I got the Rumble 800. No more questions related to the combo for now, thanks for the help as it is very difficult to try both here in Spain. So I've got to trust the comments and this combo is even better than expected.

Try prying the knobs off with a very thin flathead screwdriver. They're not glued but they can be quite tight sometimes. Just be sure not to modify anything that can't be unmodified in case you have a claim within the 2-year warranty time period, though! Then, please keep us informed of how it goes for you.

That you are gifting me your gear, of course!Of what?
I use tools like these (got mine years ago at Harbor Freight, but now everything is available even cheaper/easier online):

PSA: the red ones are $.02 cheaper.

That looks like algorithmically adjusted pricing based on views vs purchases vs personal history.PSA: the red ones are $.02 cheaper.
Or you could put one of the grilles on upside down. That's how I know which Rumble 40 has which driver.Hmm. If I had a second R100 in "Ivory", at least I'd know which was which w/o resorting to "Post-It" notes.
This, of course, assumes I could afford a second R100. Mufunzalo.
Good call!PSA: the red ones are $.02 cheaper.
Mine are blue and 10-15 years old. They come in handy surprisingly often.
Eventually I’ll get “Thing 1” and “Thing 2” stenciled or artistically painted on the amps and their covers.
Did you buy it new? If it was used, maybe the previous owner glued them on. Mine came off with little to no effort. Good luck, it looks waaaaaayyy better with the chicken-head knobs!
