I like the Stealth Gray, and if I had one I'd put a Confederate Battle Jack in place of the black grillecloth.

The funny part is I really didn't need the 2nd cab but you know, had to know what the full 500 would be like. GAS ATTACK!
But you see, now that you hear what it sounds like you know that you DID need the 2nd cabThe funny part is I really didn't need the 2nd cab but you know, had to know what the full 500 would be like. GAS ATTACK!
So true!But you see, now that you hear what it sounds like you know that you DID need the 2nd cab
Rumble Alert! Rumble Alert!
I just got a call back from Fender, and not to worry. It was a simple mistake, and now you know that Guitar Center; Musician's Friend, and Music 123 will soon be offering a Limited Edition Stealth Rumble 500 Combo! WOOT!

Definitely not my cup of tea. I prefer my stuff as plain and stock-looking as possible, but that's just me.
They'll probably sell out too. Good move on Fender's part.Rumble Alert! Rumble Alert!

Since I'm relatively new in Va, I had to check on the map where Waynesboro is...I like the Stealth Gray, and if I had one I'd put a Confederate Battle Jack in place of the black grillecloth.
I guess it's ok if you do hang the flag since I heard that everyone north of Charlottesville is a dang Yankee...
(I do write this as tongue-and-cheekily as I can given all the fuss about the flag and the removal of Confederate monuments these days...what I wrote goes goes back to a conversation I had in Costa Rica with a lady from Richmond...)
Bring Back the Disco Lights!Definitely not my cup of tea. I prefer my stuff as plain and stock-looking as possible, but that's just me.
Definitely would not want the disco lights! Hope they don't bring that back.Bring Back the Disco Lights!
I do sort of like the grey sides with black grill cloth, but would not buy it because if you ever added an extension cab they would not match. But my OCD kicks in on stuff like that.
Yes, I am a great great grandson of a Confederate soldier that was mortally wounded in the Battle for Culp's Hill on the second day of the Battle of Gettysburg: July 2nd, 1863. I have Southern Pride, but fly both flags. It's my heritage.

The disco lights are a definite no-no, though they could apparently be turned off, which is a blessing. other than that I find the industrial look of the previous Rumble generation quite appealing.Bring Back the Disco Lights!
At least on the recording, wouldn't this have been Bernard Edwards playing Stingray with flats?
Bernard Edwards, yes. Flats, yes. Sure sounds Fender Precision to me. Bernard is dead and only he knows for sure. I only trust the actual musician.
First three verses of a mountain ballad I penned about a Confederate soldier who returned home to find his troubles weren't behind him.
The Night The Eagles Cried
His Rebel boots were worn
Torn and stained by the blood on the field at Petersburg
But they held together somehow
And carried him back to his Southern Mountains home
And though he walked with empty hands
In his head he carried an oh so heavy load
The old folks came a-runnin
Did he get the letter his mama had sent that August
And a fear came over him unlike he'd ever felt in that damned old war
The Cannons and the smoke
The screams of that poor young blinded Soldier
He knocked on his mama's door
Saw it in her eyes and asked her mama what's the matter
Heard his children's voices upstairs
Mama what's wrong, Mama where's my Barbara Sue
On a foggy August Night
damn fire took his home and his Barbara too

Looks cool, but reminds me a lot of GK amps and cabs. If I had photoshop I'd try swapping the logos. lolHere's a Stealth 100
