Sounds like the rears are being used as monitors of a sort? We have a four speaker system too - two tops sitting on top of two subs and all are front of stage ahead of the band. Everyone goes through PA. We don't play too loudly but this setup reduces on stage volume and also allows us to balance the overall front of house experience. I can't see anything wrong with what you have in your PA setup, just how it's being used.

Basschat. It's all the fault of Basschat. And you lot. On Basschat.

Anyone had one of these? I bought the power supply from Amazon and they just emailed me with a link to a very generic, unbranded 'recall program form' asking for copies of receipts etc. as the power supply has been identified as being a fire risk.

I've got two Fender tolex cases with keys, one is a G&G for my AVRI Jazz but the other case is a more recent one. I'll check the keys out later to see if that helps and let you know (I've got a guitar one too) They are dead easy to pick with a paperclip though.

And it's got a black grill cloth but Fender are matching it with the silver Rumble 210. I wish it had the old school silver cloth. I'd change that straight away. (And swap the logo)

I'd be more concerned about requiring someone to have an interest in Weechat......

I would have thought that, having agreed a position with you, they would have discussed any changes with you beforehand rather than just going ahead with them. That's the fair thing to do. Sounds to me like you've being very (over?) accommodating to them and they're taking you for granted as a result.

Arrgh, I haven't noticed that til now. I'm not sure I can cope now I know this........

We're talking about the new 40w and 800w Rumble combos with the amp and cab and effects modelling software built in, rather than the V3 units? @rushscored4 has just taken delivery of one, so I'm eagerly waiting for his review...!

Here's mine. The wee chip in the paint was me.....:(

The front on mine is white gloss paint. Ashdown told me it was Ford Polar White.....

@Andy Turner can you post some pictures of yours? It sounds very different to mine and I have a white fronted one.....

Got it now thanks - it's a bit of a convoluted journey to find it! https://www.fmicassets.com/Damroot/Original/10001/OM_2376XXX000_Rumble_Studio_40_Stage_800_Rev_A_ENGLISH.pdf

Yeah, but unless I'm blind i can't see one for the Rumble Stage 800.......

How did this work out for you? I'm trying to find a list of amp models and effects for this but I'm struggling!

I have found some strings to work better with some basses than others so changing brand may be an option. How is your E string seated on the nut and tuning post? Do you have a bass playing friend who you could get to try the bass to get a second opinion?

Seeing as you quote my original thread from 2015 it's probably appropriate for me to reply. The main gist of the thread was, from the very beginning, around the price. You announced the product, you announced the price, you made a song and dance of it ant NAMM but no one could touch or feel it so opinions were formed basd on the information out there. That's what happens in the world. It works the same for cars and washing machines too. You went on about the quality components in the product and no one disputes this, but, and I hate to labour the point, the market will react to the price. You may be happy about the number of units you've sold at that price, you may not. Just because you say it's worth it does not mean others agree. I did actually buy one. And I did actually review it positively, but you've skipped over that so I post a link to it here. (formatting got screwed a bit in the migration) I have had no quality issues. I like it. I like it a lot. But not at the RRP.

Are you using the active input? I'm using five strings and have no problems with the low B. Finding the right balance between the gain and volume makes a lot of difference.

I've got one of the white ones of these too (second hand, also for £200). I'm pretty impressed to be honest, especially since I was very critical of the thing at the beginning, although that was based on the original £600 price. I get a better sound out of it when using active basses.

I guess he spotted a bargain and thought he could make some money, that's all. It happens occasionally on here too! (as does re-using previous descriptions and photos). If the bass isn't worth what he's asking then chances are no one will buy it. I can understand that morally it leave a bad taste in the mouth, especially if you were interested in the bass at the original price, but he's not really done anything wrong.

Can't work out what's wrong here? The guy bought the bass at the lower price, legitimately and is now trying to sell it at a higher price, again, legitimately. It remains to be seen if anyone will buy it at the higher price. Why's he a crook?

Think it works now? Edit: Location only shows on full site

What's drawing you to the Stingray? Sound, feel, looks etc? The HH has a wide range of sounds over the H but still does the traditional Stingray growl so I'd go for the natural two pick up model if I had the choice. (says he with a limited edition Sterling...)

I get on much better with the new layout - the display is cleaner and the fonts seems to be much easier on the eye, though that could be my age! I'm happy with less clutter meaning fewer threads per page but everyone is different I guess.
