tired icon... finished reading all the threads in the rumble forum. I've learned a ton about the rumbles, of which I own a 500c and matching 210 cab. Playing through this thing is a super treat. I used to jam with a vintage 1972 fender bassman 100 and matching cab 2x15, but out with the old and in with the new. I can actually achieve similar tones, and more new ones. Wide range of clean and dirty options. So, I went ahead and took it apart, and gave it new shoes take a look. I figure that getting it off the ground will help my neighbors downstairs. Take a look, for those of you that haven't seen the inside of a r210 cab. I think the cab is heavier than the combo due to the bulky cabinet handles.

This is an undocumented feature of the Rumbles.
It is an explicitly documented feature of the Bassman line.
In fact, the Bassmans label the effects loop differently to underscore that particular feature.

Mo' power + no mods + no warranty violations = double Rumble goodness!

I've tried it!

I'm assuming you have to set the Volume for the slave separately.
