70's all the way.1970's silverfaced or new Bassman 100T? Both are drool worthy.
Welcome Rumbler #766. Now, plug it in and Rumble on!As many may have read, I've got a Super Bassman amp and a couple of Bassman Pro Neo 115 cabs. But. .....I'm now in this club with this 500C
Should do nicely for rehearsals and some gigs
I bought one new in 1972 when the the shift from blackfaced Super Bassman to silverfaced Bassman 100 occurred. Served me very well.
Did he get 'ousted'?
If I had that much gear... oh wait I already have too much gear, never mind.
No, not at all. People come and go at TalkBass and the Fender Rumble Club is no different in that respect. His Custom Shop Rumble Bass rig is top notch; very rare, and well worth the $2,500 asking price as that was something like $3,500 new in '96. He's gone through the head and repaired everything that needed fixing. I think he retubed it too. I'd buy it without hesitation if I could.
My first amp was a bassman 100 with the 2x15 cab. Stupidly sold it.
Life happens: recessions; divorces, other assorted lifequakes.
D**n you Linnin. Why are you forcing me to get 2 210 cabs. I was perfectly happy with my 410 cab but now you have me doubting myself. Please tell me you're BSing us.
It's all true, but there is nothing wrong with your 410. By all means continue with your perfect happiness.

Hey man. Good to see you're here too. I changed to a Rumble 500C as well. The toughest, best sounding Combo, bar none!
The Aussie's are sleeping. It's 3 AM Saturday morning.
That's a good point.

Some people don't like this and others flatly deny it, but the Fender Rumble 500 combo is the best selling bass amp in world wide sales for the past two and now working on three years running. Yes, they are that good.That's a good point.I sure glad I tried the 500C.
Now you're telling me not to buy more gear. What kind of a friend are you?
