Lightweight Power – Fender Rumble Bass Combo Amps

Currently in its 3rd iteration, the Rumble amplifiers from Fender define versatility for bassists of all types, regardless of requirements.

The entire series is designed with a focus on clear, powerful bass tone, in a lightweight form factor. Available in everything from 15 to 500 watt configurations, there is an amp to suit the needs of everyone from the bedroom practice hero, to the seasoned stage professional.

Lightweight Construction

Built with lightweight plywood, the entire series of amplifiers features notably compact and lightweight construction, making transport to and from rehearsals and gigs as easy as can be.

Headphone Output

For convenient personal listening at any time that won’t bring the house down on anyone else within earshot, the entire series features a headphone output jack.

Auxiliary Input

For easy connectivity with digital media players and other similar devices, the series is equipped with an 1/8″ stereo auxiliary input.

Rumble 15

The smallest option in the range, the Rumble 15 is a 15 watt bass amplifier combined with an 8” Fender Special Design Speaker. Featuring a full Three-Band EQ, and weighing in at only 7.26kg, this classic Fender-styled bass amp is perfect for those late-night practice sessions.

  • Classic Fender look
  • 1/8” auxiliary input, 1/4″ headphone output

Rumble 25

With the addition of a gritty, aggressive overdrive switch, a mid-scoop contour switch, and of course and additional 10 watts of output, the Rumble 25 offers increased variance of tone and, of course, a little extra kick at 25 watts!

  • 25 watts

  • Top-mount control panel with ivory “soft touch radio” control knobs
  • Compact and lightweight (9.54kg) ported enclosure with removable grille

Rumble 40

Coming in at 40 watts, with a 10” Fender Special Design speaker, the Rumble 40 steps out as a bass combo amp that is at home in the rehearsal room. At this point in the series, we have the addition of an XLR line output for easy compatibility with external stage and studio performance and recording systems.

Rumble 100

With the range’s entrance to a fully stage-capable bass amplifier, we have the Rumble 100, which is also the first in the range to include an effects loop.

100 watts of solid-state power fed through an upgraded Eminence Special Design speaker, weighing in at a mere 9.98kg, means travelling from venue to venue, and rehearsal room to rehearsal room with a fully capable amplifier is a breeze.

  • 10” Fender Special Design speaker
  • Compact and lightweight (8.16kg) ported enclosure with removable grille
  • Overdrive circuit (controlled manually or with optional footswitch)

Rumble 200

The powerful, 15” Eminence speaker sets the Rumble 200 apart from the pack. The signature sound of a 15” speaker powered by a 200 watt amplifier is unmistakable. For sweet and clear high end with focused definition, from this point in the series, a high-frequency compression tweeter with a convenient rear-cabinet on/off switch is included.

  • Dual 10″ Eminence® speakers
  • Compression horn with on/off switch
