Ged-2112 into Rumble 100

If I were to get a GED 2112 is there a way I can use the rumble as the power amp and run both the deep and drive channels into it? I'd like to build up a rack rig at some point but this is it's humble beginning.
 
So, you probably will either need to mod the GED-2112 internal jumper to send the output of both the "Drive" and "Deep" channels to both outputs (blending them), OR you can do this via 1/4" patch cable (from the "Deep" output into the "Effects Return" with the "50/50" switch engaged - the level of your "Drive" channel becomes the master volume and the level of your "Deep" channel becomes a blend of the two channels) - then your output (with the internal jumper method you can use either channel output; with the patch cable method, you need to use the "Drive" output) goes into (I assume) the effects return on your Fender Rumble.

Ok cool, seems pretty simple. If I went with the jumper mod would I just take a 1/4 from either output into the main input of my amp?

I know nothing about the GED, but to use just the power amp of the Rumble you want to plug into it's Effects Return. If you plug into the main input then you would have the Rumble's preamp stepping all over your GED tone.
