For an amp of such power, the Rumble 500 comes in a conveniently compact casing. So whether you're touring multiple venues, taking it to the studio, or rehearsing with your bandmates – the Rumble's lightweight design is more portable than ever. What's more – it features a magnetic locking system that's compatible with any matching Rumble speaker, keeping your amp secure during performance.
There's more to the Rumble 500's functionality than meets the eye, though. It hosts an XLR line output. Meaning you can connect to any stage or studio setup directly, without compromising on your tone. An implemented ground lift switch eradicates any unwanted noise interference as well, ensuring maximum clarity in your sound. It's this meticulous design from Fender that makes the Rumble 500 a must-have for the stage. Because, ultimately, the modern player requires modern functionality from their bass amp.
The possibilities are endless
No bassist should be limited to their tone. And the Fender Rumble 500 makes sure you can explore the possibilities for your sound. Featuring a 4-band EQ, players can shape their tone exactly how they wish, adjusting the bass, middle, and treble frequencies with ultimate precision. Combined with the versatile three-button tone voicing, the option between bright, contoured, or vintage tone is for you to customise, your way. Discover your potential.
Whilst many amps include a gain control, bassists often find that they can't quite get that gritty tone without the use of an elaborate pedalboard. Until now. The Rumble 500 includes an integrated overdrive switch on top of a gain control, to make finding those aggressive bass tones simpler than ever before. Fuel your sound with rich, aggressive drive at the flick of a switch - with drive, level, and gain knobs for even more control over your sound. Push the boundaries of your bass tone.
Freedom to play whenever you want
Be ready when inspiration strikes. Because the Rumble 500 lets you practice at any time thanks to a headphone output jack. Push your sound to its limits, without bringing the house down. Simply plug in your headphones and start playing in silence, because you never know when your creativity might spark.
