that's me and band

also the pre amp out can go to pa, and you can mute the speaker by plugging a lead into the headphone socket I'm a fan

So I bought the amp, I plugged it in and started playing at 2/3 volume, the speaker started a horrible crackle and died before ten seconds was up.Sounds good when it works.

Good quality sound. Light. Twin inputs. There's lots of people on the web who have had the buzzing problem with the Fender Rumble 25 Combo Bass. It can be fixed by changing a single capacitor (C38) from 2.2microfarad to 10 microfarad. With that sorted, it's a good small bass amp.

I have this amp its great for house use or little bands... Great sound, and I love the red pulsing light on amp, its pulsing on your tone.

I was looking for an amp suitable for home use and small gigs, tried the Fender Rumble 25 Combo Bass one hooked up to a Fender Jazz bass and was really impressed. Loud enough for small gigs, manageable size, still sounds good at low volume so can keep the neighbours happy. The effects loop is really useful and I like the red light. What really impresses is the range of tones, smooth silky lows and clear crisp highs, EQ that actually does something. Nice manageable size and weight. If they made amps like this forty years ago when I started playing the bass, I might have been famous.

A great price for such a wonderful sound. I run this one with my vintage 62' Hofner Beatle bass with flat wound strings. Sounds just as warm as my Crate B160 or my VOX T-60.

I compared at a showroom this amp, an SWR 30 watt and the Fender Bassmaster. I could not tell the diff. between the Bassmaster and this one, so price won out between this contest. The SWR compact 30 watt with an 8" speaker could not go near as loud as the Fender that was $75 cheaper as well! The SWR also had some strange "artefact" sounds on certain notes with notable overdriving with little volume.

I wanted a small, compact, 10" or 8" speaker, "practice" amp that would not break the bank but provided enough punch (a modest size cabnit) to be heard while playing with 30 watt 6 string electrics.

This one fits the bill perfectly. No frills, 3 band EQ and passive/active inputs makes this a great choice for most bass players.

The Fender Rumble 25 Combo Bass amplifier has a look that means business. Fender really took the time to dial in the sound and the result is an amplifier that speaks with EQ that is versatile and features that include CD input and headphones. The Rumble 25 is incredibly easy to dial in various tones from mid heavy fusion to low bumping Reggae. It speaks well with fretted and fretless and although 25 watts doesn't take you much beyond the bedroom.
