[DRut]

Hello all
I have a question. I have a rumble 500 head with a old school Genz Benz 15 inch speaker. The GB is way to big to lug around for rehearsals or gigs so I am looking at getting a new one. I have a few questions
1) Fender rumble 210 39 pounds (I already have the head so this should be all I need)
2) Fender Rumble 100 or 200 combo amp ( I already have the head but there are some really good prices and I I could just sale my Head)

also I have heard that your amp cab combo can really affect your tone, Is Fender rumble considered gig worthy or lower tier)

Is it feasible to leave a rehearsal worthy rig at... rehearsal... and acquire a practice worthy combo for home?

I think the Rumble is certainly decent.

I think I would pick up the 210 cab. Can always get a second if needed.

I tend to agree im not disappointed

I would go for the cabinet as well, and plan on probably getting a second for situations that lack PA support. The 500 head is plenty of power and I wouldn’t spend any resources to replace it unless I really disliked the sound (they sound fine AFAIK).

I have the Rumble 500 combo plus the 210 extension cab. I also recently picked up a Rumble 500 head. For gigs I can bring just the head and plug into the backline cab or into the FX return if it's a combo. The head and the extension cab go great together, especially with the magnetic attachment system. Then there's the combo with extension cab giving the full 500 watts into 4 10s. For gits and shiggles I tried the head and cab daisy chained to the combo for 700 glorious watts. Monstrous!
