The Combo Club

This combo is portable, powerful and profitable!

No worries. I have a few more mainstream qualifiers to keep me legal here :D

Just wanted to provoke thought and experimentation. It seems to be working.

I imagine a rig composed of my separate components, including modeling and wireless integrated at the design level and optimized for flat voicing.

It would qualify as a combo AND have the ability to multiply boxes easily to add power.

A few items on the market recently seem to be moving in a similar direction.

Yes! We're honored to have you as a Fellow Combo Clubber, #72, @ghostinthemach. I, for one, remember your Fender V1 Rumble 60 combo (with the Fender Mustang Floor pedal) from a previous post.

It certainly is working, unlike my question for info about my old '71 EMC combo. (sigh)

I'm not sure that putting components "around" a combo (or two) would qualify the rig, in general, as a combo. But, certainly, any such "combos-at-heart" are interesting to see. Keep 'em coming!

Thanks @G-Dog ! I like it here.
I was actually wishing a manufacturer would build what I’ve mocked up.

The Rumble 800 is a more up-the-middle version of my more utilitarian dream box, lacking the modular add-more-boxes focus.

The Rumble Stage & Studio is a manufactured version of your Rumble with the Mustang pedal.

??? What kinda boxes you talking about adding? The 800 has got stereo FX Send/Return and you can add one 4 ohm extension cab, or one-or-two 8 ohm cabs!

So from what I'm seeing is a veto by the club to include ghost's EV cab with various goodies on top of it. Done. We do thank ghostinthemach for participating in what we call, "Create Your Own Combo!" Gotta give him an A+ for effort though. For me in the future, if the Batman pouch is involved I'm probably gonna vote for it.

twinjet, you didn't ask, but I'm the dude who hands out the numbers and with that GK sitting alongside ya, you definitely deserve a membership number. You are #87, congratulations! That leaves us with an even dozen members to go, Combo Club. Keep talking us up, ladies and gents!

Cool, thanks. I was wondering what happened to the OP. He hasn't been around in some time.

No, haven't heard a thing from him. He began a with a great idea, but sometimes you get busy and tyhe club dries up. I happened to come upon it and felt compelled to resurrect it. Good luck provided me with a really nice bunch of new and old members and here we are. Thanks for stopping in.

Since @iagtrplyr stepped up, we are the lucky ones...just sit back and let him to all the work :cool:;):).
 


I took my Silverado Special back to church so I record its tone there.


Cheese, you are the man! Thanks so much for putting yourself out there so your club buddies could catch your rig in action. As I said once before, that is an SWR amp, no doubt about it.Yeah, it's a biggun, but the tone you got out of it is one you're looking for. So what have you decided...keep it at church or is it going back home? Thanks a bunch, Doc, for sharing.

I will leave at it home because I like it too much to leave it at church. My SWR will be my travel amp. Literally, thank God it has wheels because I wear myself out carrying it!
