The Combo Club

And, might I add, he could do a Reverb search for a minty used Rumble 500 or 200. That would give him enough power to light up his 410 and not dig too deep into the wallet.

Personally, I love new but have carefully purchased new in the past and came away quite happy. Something to think about.
The only stuff I purchase used is from places with good return policies. My R100 was a demo- not a mark on it. My R112cab was a return-no marks and had a custom cover. And my JBL EON One PA was a floor model-again, no problems-:thumbsup: 'cept I don't get to use any of this[stuff]any more.:(
 
Yeah, the new(er) MAX's are lighter and have decent power and the angled speaker baffle.
I'm happy with my Rumbles, plus some of the reviews of the new MAX's are......less than stellar.

Try to find one that doesn’t vibrate on an open E note. That seems to be what I read a lot. Great ideas, poor build-quality.

On the other hand, you’d focus all a favor by purchasing one because we wanna know more about the line. In other words, do it for us, RR!
 
Since the "HD" word has been thrown out there here's a list of all the Rumble V3 models!
.



Operation Duck & Cover! Repeat: Duck & Cover!
Failsafe 13! Failsafe 13! . . . . Jericho! Jericho! Jericho!
Hungry Hippos on 2! Repeat: Hippos 2! . . . . . Eyes Only! Eyes Only!
Top Is Down! Top Is Down! . . . . . . Ignition On! Ignition On!
All Others: Battle Stations! Battle Stations! Battle Stations!

So, you've heard of Rumble amps before?

:roflmao:

Hungry Hippos ENGAGED!!! (you should see the size of that ring...)

Do we actually have this word salad in the club manual? I guess I haven’t seen it, but must admit it’s quite colorful!

Might just do that. What I dream of is being able to line up a few of these amps at Sweetwater, and spend some time playing them back to back. For that matter, I really like the idea of getting my hands on one of the new Squier Mini Precision basses too, and they have them in stock. :woot:

Of course, the pandemic is putting a serious damper on that idea. :banghead:

Super idea. I’ve seen those and they look awesome! All fun and only a fraction of the size.

Or you could order one of everything (your original plan), keep the one you like, and give the rest away to your CC friends! I’ll take the Trace Elliot 10” combo, please and thank you!

Being a ferroequinologist, I love that song.

GP, you know we love it when you use larger words than Doc Intrepid!

My dad was a train enthusiast too and worked for the Santa Fe Railroad in California. I learned at a young age all the different types of cars and can still point out a gondola at first sight!

Plus, I enjoy playing that song too.
