Good point, who knows when it will actually be out.

Yeah, besides, there could have been a chance I might not even been able to sell the Orange, other than the chance I did, even though I sold it dirt cheap, and it was enough to cover the Ampeg. I could have sat on it forever even at $600, even though that's really cheap for that Orange amp. Sometimes, you got to take a chance when it's offered to you, otherwise you just blow it.

With a lot of things any more. Not just a some what different head like an Orange. The Orange amps are a bit of a unique brand. They aren't for every player. Some still don't know what an Orange is.

I guess they have their niche. I'm just glad I was able to move it when I did.

That really did work out well. Timing is everything.

Who knows too, you may be doing better with the Ampeg, then you would have done with the Rumble 800.

I don't know. Time will tell on all of that, I suppose. Getting back to the Rumble 800, I just saw this article mentioning it. There's also a Rumble LT25 combo, which is 25 watts, and has 50 presets. I guess it's in the same vein as the Rumble Stage 800 combo, or that Studio 40 combo.

https://www.notreble.com/buzz/2019/02/2 ... -for-2019/

It seems like that they are adopting a different aesthetic with the amp design, using black instead of the silver now. Who knows if they'll keep the other stuff, or phase that out, too?

You're right. Who knows. I've kinda' went in that black look with the Hartke. Maybe Fender is showing a different look for Rumble in black, and keeping the Bassman in the traditional silver weave. The black must also be more cost efficient too. A nice way of saying cheaper.

I imagine so. Well, the second generation of Rumbles were black, but they also had the metal grill, and block logo, if you want to call it that. It looks like these have the fabric instead of the metal.

Yes they do have a black fabric. Kinda' hard to guess what is in design future for the Fender amps. I wouldn't think they would mess with the Bassman silver fabric. Or they could go with the metal mesh on the Bassman, Sunn 300 head.

You know, what they should do is some good old fashioned red shag carpeting. :P I never did get any to put on the Rumble 350 combo, like I talked about years ago. :P

Not my cup of tea, but it would look different. :roll:

Yeah, it was more or less a joke that I got from the "Blues Brothers" movie. They had mentioned something about Fender amps with red shag carpeting on them. You know, that's a movie I haven't seen in a long time.
