Fender Rumble Club

[GregT]

Invalid Link Removed, Fender sent us the 200 head and the 1x15, and I can attest that they sound and work great together.

I appreciate the link, Tom. I just finished reading the review. Great stuff. I like the fact that you aren't biased one way or the other. On page 2, where you plugged it into an Ampeg PF-112HE cab, I enjoyed your descriptions a lot. I used to have the Ampeg cab, so it really made a lot of sense to me. The difference is why I like the Rumble series and why others choose Ampeg. I have mentioned here in the Rumble Club that the Rumble 200 Combo with its 15 just fills a room. You mentioned that also.

For those of you who haven't read Tom's review, it is definitely worth your time!!

Thank you for the kind words! I'm glad that you found the review useful.

You know--it has occurred to me that there isn't one post (at least what I remember) where someone tried to match cabs using the Rumble and ended up with a sucky sound.

Is there a situation where this Rumble product doesn't sound good?

Well then a 2x10 and a 1x15 is what I want to do. Its solely to have the two different sounds separately and then to pair to have the volume when I need it. So, the together sound is just an added bonus.

I like your thinking...basically three different rigs.

On another note, the 4x10 is only $50 more than the 2x10. Is there any sound-based reason why someone wouldn't just go with the 4x10 instead?

Price drops on most of the rumble line at musicians friend. Big ones.

Not on everything but $80 off a Rumble 200 makes it $320! Rumble 100 marked down $60 to $240 and Rumble 40 marked down $40 to $160! 500 and 200 heads also marked down to $320 and $240 respectively. Everyone else will price match.
Merry Rumble Christmas!

I get the feeling there are some announcements coming next month at NAMM.

And...we have to pay ONLY 554 euros in Europe for a Rumble 500 HD or 649 for the 500 combo.And this is the most cheep price i can get.Ok....i can wait another year or two

I wish I had some money for this. I’ve been contemplating picking up the 500 head and another 210 cab, and leave the combo for home practice/backup. Oh well, I can wait a bit and maybe score one used.

I am totally Rumble nuts....I know have a 500 combo, a 500 head, a 40 combo, a 210 cab, a 115 cab & a 112 cab........will take some time trying all the options!!

 

[btmpancake]

I 'm thinking to save some more money-fender may do something in 2016 such as a rumble 750/800 head maybe & cabs to handle it.Who knows?

 

[Bufalo]

A Rumble 800 would be logical to power up a stack of two 4x10's.

Agree with @Scott Truesdell to wait and see what Winter NAMM 2016 holds. Fender always makes their major announcements there. Could be exciting!

I'd like to know the sound differences between the 210/115/112!! I want the low B to sound good and can't decide which one to get! Going to see if any are available to demo locally

 

[Gravedigger Dav]

In 2014 the Rumble 500 combo was unleashed upon the planet and has proceeded to become the best selling bass amp on planet Earth.

Yes, and only slightly behind the Ampeg BA210 v2 on Tralfamadore, but the people on that planet aren't that smart.

Have fun auditioning them all. Where are you going to do it?

We used to occasionally have a latte together back in the day.
But I got tired of him always asking me to pay because he was broke... again.
