    Fender Rumble 40 v3 cover

    Odd that Fender doesn't offer a branded cover for the R40v3. Plenty of r100v3, 200, etc. covers for as little as $20, but not a single Fender branded R40 cover - I've been using a bass player logo t-shirt for mine but its getting a bit beat up. Anyone know of a good source for a nice dust /...

    Fender Rumble 40 speaker mod tube length?

    Been reading the old threads from Astrosonic on speaker upgrades and the required port tube mod. Sounds like I need to mod the tubes to 2 5/8” length for the eminence basslite s2010 to have ideal cab tuning. What I can’t determine from those no longer active threads is where do I measure the 2...

    Rumble 40 v3 ext speaker mod

    Wondering how hard (and wise) it would be to put an ext speaker jack on my Rumble 40 to make the little workhorse a bit more versatile. Anyone have any experience doing this and any tips or hints for success?

    Fender Rumble 40 vs 100 for home practice

    I am looking at these two amps for home practice. I would just buy the 40, as I know it will be loud enough, but the 100 is only 20 Euro more where I live. Is there much disadvantage to spending the very little extra and getting the bigger amp? Thanks!

    Fender Rumble 40 and Fender Rumble 100 - Make sure you buy at a place with a good return policy

    Hello. Over the past month, I purchased a Fender Rumble 40 combo. Great little amp! Loved everything about it. I didn't love that the amp blew after four days of playing, maximum of 2 hours of playing total. I would turn the amp on and the light would flash on, but no sound would come out...

    Rumble Studio 40 into Rumble 200?

    Hi guys, So my usual set-up is a Rumble 200 combo and my pedalboard with various pedals and a Trace Elliot preamp wired into the effects loop; this is the rig I keep in my bands practice room. However it's too much hassle to move it up to my lounge (2 floors up), to where I usually practice; so...

    XLR out on a reasonably priced combo amp

    I’m looking for a reasonably priced combo amp with an XLR out to hook up to a PA. So far the best price/quality combos I can find are the Fender Rumble 40 and the 100. What are others’ experiences with these? How useful is the XLR? Are there other brands/models that I should consider? I...
