Normally I do run that rig and love. However, this weekend I dragged out the trusty ol' 500 combo because there was a possibility I may have to move it quickly in the middle of the outdoor gig - been raining a lot here.
That is the way some of us feel about our 100 or 200. That is the way other people feel about their 40. That must just be the Rumble feeling!
Welcome to the Fender Rumble Club, Stellvia!Hi all,
New here, have been following this thread for a while now. Decided to get seriously into bass playing a few months ago (after several years of occasional playing - keyboards & sax are my main instruments) and decided to get a better amp to replace my Line 6 15W Lowdown.
After a few hiccups trying out some Ampeg gear I decided to go with the Rumble, based on the recommendations and enthusiasm of the people on this thread and all the music store employees that I talked to (who all raved about the new Rumble line). Anyways, got myself a V3 200 a few months ago and have been loving this awesome amp! Has enough power for me (home use and church) and I've rarely had to turn the Master up beyond 9 o'clock!
This foray into serious bass playing has also resulted in the purchase of 3 new basses, Origin Effects Cali-76G Compressor and associated cables, straps and stands, of which the Rumble was first!
Have recently ordered the 210 cabinet to go with it for an upcoming performance of a work I was commissioned to write for massed saxophone orchestra (60+ saxes), bass and drums and I think I might need the extra speaker area! Hope I don't get in trouble for mixing a 115 with a 210!The bass player in my band (that I play keys in) has a GK 115 combo with 210 extension which sounds great, so I'm hoping the same holds true for the Rumbles!
Really enjoying getting into bass playing properly for the first time and the Rumble has been a big part of making this experience enjoyable!

Rumbles Rock! 
To my ears all of the Eminence Basslites are simply superb woofers in every respect. The S2012 I put in my Rumble 75 is absolutely killer.
Paul was playing through a brand new silverfaced Fender Bassman 100 + 2x15 JBL D-140F loaded cabinet.Here's a little something for those fine folks here on Talkbass that serious professional musicians don't use Fender Amplification.
I guess these guys were just bedroom / garage hobbyists right?
Haters gonna hate, I am just gonna laugh and rock on!
One of the few things CBS era Fender got right were the all tube silverfaced amps. I also had the exact same silverfaced Bassman 100 rig as Paul. Glorious!
Aggressiveness requires courage to overcome mere mortal fear! Crank that Master until your woofers burst into flames of misadventure! (not covered by warranty) Keep a 10-A-BC extinguisher handy.
Boring to you might very well be an awakening to a drifting soul.
Don't do it. The high wattage will blow the channel out of the board at the very least. No soundman in their right mind would allow you to do that.
