Fender Rumble Club

Actually, you are now obligated to place your order.
No, not at all. We have two other honorary Rumble Club members. They haven't been around in a long time. The first is a young man from Argentina. I think he was 17 at the time and just couldn't afford a Fender Rumble. The second is a gentleman from Greece. Remember the financial upheaval there? As much as he wanted a Fender Rumble it was just impossible.

I feel a special kinship to all those of stark financial realities, and I am grateful for all that I have.
 
Yes, and it's a closer match than I had at first thought. I am always impressed by just how deep the Eminence neo 12's can go. They sound pretty good together even at low personal practice volume. You can actually feel the difference in power and headroom going from 140 watts to the full 200. In adding the 112 there is a readily apparent 3+dB boost in SPL at the very same volume settings. Plus moving more air with greater overall dispersion. I can see where adding the V3 112 would be a good sonic match. Still if size; weight, and OCD cabinet matching aren't concerns, I'd opt for the V3 115.
Size, weight, and especially OCD cabinet matching are not concerns, they're priorities. :roflmao:
 
a gentle nudge.

Now that I'm an honorary member here, I have something to look forward to. Meanwhile, keep those gentle nudges coming so I can stay motivated. ;)

By the way, I just realized something... Funny I never even thought of this till now.
I have a son who lives upstairs under my roof, who owns one of these:

Fender Rumble 60 v1

@michael_t that's good enough! The first Rumble I ever heard was a V1 60! The first generation Rumbles sold well for 7 years from 2003 until the V2's were released in 2010. They built Rumble's solid reputation for good tone and rugged reliability. They were as teen-ager proof as was humanly possible.
