Fender Rumble Club

[micahwc]

Try this with good headphones on. Play a high G on the D string with a pick. Pretend you are DeeDee Ramone - all 8th notes all down strokes. All tone controls flat. Now hit the Bright button. That's a +10dB boost right at 10 kHz. +10 dB = twice as loud, so your top end should now be a very annoying twice as loud Clank, Gank, and Wank. If you can't tell the difference, you got serious problems.

I'll try it now.

Yeah, no difference with tone on bass off, and barely any difference with tone on bass all the way up.

Edit: Playing a Fender MIM Standard Dimension, single bridge pickup model. Behringer HPM1000 head set. Only headset I have here right now.

OK back it goes. As a check do the very same drill with any new Rumble 40 & up. If you get the same result, get your hearing checked. If you truly have serious high Hz loss, then you'll know for sure.

Well, I've owned it for probably a year, and I bought it used, so it's not going anywhere unfortunately. I do have bilateral hearing loss from shooting cannons (it was like the circus), but I can hear high end in other amps so I'm pretty sure it's just the head.

You guys need to go here: Looking for head

(it is a TB thread---no joke)

Still ain't going to give my reply to that one.

Shame about that, but doesn't the warranty cover new owners also (at least the original 5 year warranty)?

 

[Linnin]

I can't reply, I'd get yelled at!

 

[micahwc]

Called the local music store, they have a 100 and 200 combo in stock, so I'll take my head in and compare it to them.

 

[J-Bassomatic]

OK OK. Nice piece. Is that a Walther?

Yes. PPK/S Standard C.I.A. Issue

OOH, you might have something there, I thought of it but mine is one of the measly 2 year warranty, forgot about the 5.

 

[JACink]

Anything you say is irrelevant and most definitely wrong.

And with that small change, you sound just like my wife

Fender's warranty stuff is confusing. I need the sales receipt, which I have. I have no idea if it's a two year or 5 year warranty, they say refer to the documentation that came with the product, which I do not have.

HEY!!! Where'd you get that picture? I could have sworn I scanned the room for hidden cameras!

What date was it first sold?

Call Fender and see, I think the 2 year started in 2016 or 17.

OK, you are covered by the 5 year warranty. The warranty itself is available at Fender.com

Call you nearest Fender Authorized Service Center. They should be able to tell you based on the original New sales receipt.

January 2017.
