Fender Rumble Club

[Gravedigger Dav]

Hello Bass enthusiasts. I have Rumble 40 v3 and really like the way it sounds. The EQ and switches are very effective. I want to created a stack starting with a second one. have any of you tried stacking like Rumbles. Related issue is Radial Bigshot vs. Twin City vs. Shotgun? I'm new to this forum, pardon if this is a redundant post.

We always like hearing happy stories about Rumbles. Are you wanting to get a number and join up?

Good to hear, and glad you are back, @vdub75! Yes, the Fender Rumble 350 schematic states 370 watts @4 ohms at both 100 Hz and 1kHz. So 400 solid clean continuous watts doesn't surprise me a bit. I'm keeping my Rumble 350 head forever.

yes, it delivers plenty of volume and boom, nothing like some other weak a** class D heads (speakin TC Electronics, mostly...)

Don't forget those art deco looking portaflex amps, they are pretty overrated in the juice department as well.

dampig pottyflex! Just divide the stated wattage in half, and there's your much more realistic power rating. Over Rated. Under Engineered. Unreliable. Over Priced.

Heaviest class D head until the new acoustic class d hit the GC. What are they doing adding lead plates or something?

You can sorta see a sliver of rumble stack grille cloth. The rhythm guitarist has one of those fancy looking H&K tubemeister amps and matching thiele 112s

I've just purchased a Rumble 500 Combo to go along with my fender Getty Lee. I plan on getting the 500 cabinate as soon as I get some extra scratch.

Love the deep sound and the 500 is sure more then enough to rock the rafters or do some damage to my wife's china cabinet.

Run the gain around noon, use bright, tweeter off, overdrive on with the drive between all the way down and 9 o clock, to taste. Boost the high mids and treble to about 1-2o'clock, bridge pickup all the way up, neck pickup about 85-90%, just down enough to get that 3db mid boost (vs the scoop of both on full), and dig in hard with some bright rounds, and you will be in geddy Lee territory. Turn the tweeter on for that harsh rush in Rio direct tone lol.

and you will be in geddy Lee territory

and don't forget the Rotosound Swing Bass 66's!

My friend Chip Jaeger has repaired my brand new custom made left-handed $5,000 Buddy Blaze Bass of a botched nut and bad fret installation. All is well now. I am the cool cat in the hat.

I don't care for them anymore, but I sure used too in 1970-74. For those of you that don't know the Ox, John Entwistle, helped design them in 1966. Chris Squire of Yes and Geddy Lee of RUSH are also famous Rotosound players.

That's Fendora! In reality not a fedora at all, but rather a trilby.

Oh of course, I looked a bit too fast.

That qualifies you for a number, if you want one.

You are a smart fella for having the Auralex.
Congrats!

Is this thread the right place to ask whether anyone knows of Black Friday deals on the rumble?
