cacky-handed loll...maybe its Aussie-speak lolI is!
Hello,
I recently picked up a combo bass amp, a Fender Rumble 200. Pretty happy with it so far. I made a review/demo video.
Does this qualify me to join the club?

Now now Fearless Mike...you know I love you like a brother...you just need a good nights sleep and a couple days away with me next week...how soon can ya get here loll You can't be here every 5 mins especially after grading papers etc. My southpaw Iowa brother.Welcome, expatmuso, you are officially member #133. Congrats! Please spread the word to your bass buddies that if they own themselves any kind of a combo amp, they're welcome here. Don't be a stranger...we've already got enough of those 'round these here parts, like me.![]()
Methinks our member bhendrix is saying from his post that he thinks WE are THE coolest club on TB..not just ONE of the coolest clubs that you posted Mike...and he as a noob is correcting you, the founder, nicely lol..its a compliment if I read it right lol.I must be tired because I still don't get this...

Dunno about the rest of you members but I'm speechless after G-Doggy's post...lollWell, of course, he's right. Young beni hendrix (any relation to jimi?) is obviously chuffed to be an elite member of The Combo Club, and rightfully so. But, alas, he has yet to learn the grace of our ... noblesse oblige [the inferred responsibility of privileged people to act with generosity and nobility toward those less privileged].
Boasting and braggadocio is repugnant and often produces the opposite of the intended effect when trying to lift up the downtrodden and heavy burdened. Let us, therefore, reach out in humbleness and modesty to our brothers and sisters in bassosity as bearers of The Light(weight) and The Power, be it Class D or otherwise; The Combo!

Lol - love it - that's why this club rocks! At 58, I'm "young" againYoung beni hendrix (any relation to jimi?)


Ah yes - you are wise Giffro! Your explanation to fearless leader was spot on!Methinks our member bhendrix is saying from his post that he thinks WE are THE coolest club on TB..not just ONE of the coolest clubs that you posted Mike.
OK, so there's like a gazillion Rumbles there and a couple scans reveal not a single pic of a Blackstar. I know, like me, they are the new kids on the block - but as a fully initiated member of this elite club, I would respectfully request the inclusion of the fine Unity Bass Line from Blackstar Amplification!And you are right again, iago, it truly is a very striking addition (now) to the PIX Section of the Combo Club Wiki page

Thank you - and may god bless!
Sighhh...there goes G-Doggy mumblin and grumblin his way along again lolllHmmm, not very thorough scans, beni. Cool your jets! [Mumbling Gumble]Young 'uns got no respect for us elders. Harumpf![/Grumbling Mumble] But, I'm sure you won't miss all the BlackstarS next time.But, seriously, bhendrix, thank you for bringing that to my attention. I assure you there was no intentional slight.
I've read nothing but good things about the new Unity. There's even a (the?) very vocal Fender fan who's impressed with the new Unity!
Anyone else here feel that their combo(s) are under-represented on the Combo Club Wiki page, or anything else that needs to be added there, just lemme know, by post or PM, either way. I want this to be your wiki page!
Go Combos!

It's Blackstar and Vox amps on the showroom floor at the local brick and mortar.
Come to think of it, the only amps on the showroom floor are combos. So @pcake is correct about The March of Combo Amps at her GC. (This B&M here is a mom & pop that still sells <gasp> pianos.)
Some dealers just show NO darn respect for their prospective and current customers.The Vox VX50BA is the first amp I looked for in the showroom. No dice. Crimminy. They're delighted to order one, I'm informed. But kind of in - if not amp nirvana now - then close.
