Cabinet is sturdy and well constructed but not too heavy. Handles are a nice feature. Wish the casters were bigger as I have been stopped dead in my tracks on doorway mats everywhere I have taken it.

Not a fan of the whole distortion channel thing. I actually play professionally so you can take that crap out. I did try the RCA connectors with a CD player. That sounded like poo. Don't need that. EQ is nice but could really use a second parametric sweep (mid-low & mid-hi). I wish fender made this cab in a higher impedance configuration and put a powered 1/4" line out on the back of it so you could link an extension cab to it.

Meh. Its manageable.

Your general opinion of this product.
I needed a smaller combo that I could get in and out of coffee shop acoustic gigs but still be loud enough to hang with any live band that I might play with. To do this, I needed to sell my much larger 4X10 rig. So it had to be a combo that could hang with the output of a 4X10. At a rated 350 watts, this seemed like the best bang for the buck. It was. DO NOT BE FOOLED this thing can get more than loud enough to hang with a live band. So far, I am very happy with the purchase.

I love that it has the removable casters. It makes it much easier to maneuver. The spring loaded handles on the sides are helpful too. I do wish that it had a tuner built in.

I went from a single 15" speaker to this twin 10" and I was blown away. This unit has much more clarity than my old one. Has plenty of volume and punch.

I think it's great. I would recommend it to anyone, especially for it's price range.

You can get a variety of tones from this amp. It has the gain control and blend that you can use to get the growling distortion if you want it. I especially like the shape section, the punch and scoop are essential to my sound.

As advertised it's lighter than it looks and rolls on the wheels - convenient for an amp. My last outside Christmas part I had to keep the amp volume nob at 4 of 10.
Features
What do you consider to be the best features of this product? What features would you add to this product if you could?
The wheels are detachable so I have the option to pop them off in the back seat of the track and pop them on whenever I've rolling the amp into position. The sidehandles.
Sound
How is the tone?
I believe the tone is as good as my manipulation of the controls. I have an Ibanez SR506-6 string and I can add or get rid of buzzing, sharpness, dullness, punch, and treble as mush as I want.
Overall
Your general opinion of this product.
I am an amateur, and this is my second amp - but I don't think I can do better for under $1000. I love it - it's got more power than I need and enough variation in the controls for me to continue to learn.
Tone
Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin?
Both - I can do grunge well, reggae well, smooth background (cool rock), or "solo" as a clear deep bass guitar

I love connection options, I wish it had an extra speaker out if I ever wanted to add an extra cab, but it has everything else I need. The distortion effects are great, it is easy to dial in the tone you want with the EQ. Right out of the box this thing is a monster.

I was very impressed with the sound. It handles five strings with no problem, it reproduces that B string without the fuzz, very defined and sharp.

It can be anything you want. It can handle anything from haavy metal to jazz without breaking a sweat. My drummer is just amazed how punchy this combo is, and how well it can fill a room.

Rumble 350 Review

Like any other Fender gear I've owned or played with in the past, I would put this up there with them. I haven't road tested it yet, but so far, so good. I think it will do fine.
Features
What do you consider to be the best features of this product? What features would you add to this product if you could?
You have simple EQ knobs and buttons and an overdrive with blend knob. You also have a DI out, headphone and auxiliary RCA inputs, as well as a horn on and off switch. It's pretty basic, just what a large bass amp could use. I love the simplicity of it. Just set up and go.
Sound
How is the tone?
The sound is classic Fender quality: clean and full. It can get quite loud, if need be, too. If you like it dirty, the overdrive is a nice selection. On full effect, it has a bumble bee like buzz, which I like.
Tone

It go nice and warm to bright and funky. It sounds like a good bass amp and a good Fender amp should. It all depends on how you like to set it.

This amp can house any tone that you can generate. You want it loud, then turn it up. You want it soft then turn it down. You want that special sound, then EQ it to your perferences, YOU CANT GO WRONG. I hear you RUMBLING.......

This amp seems to be pretty durable for a solid state chinese made amp. I've only owned it for a few months and so far so good. I play in drop tunings (nothing lower than drop C) and the amp handles it well with power to spare. The casters and handles on either side seem well built and they were a big selling point for me...easy to transport.

I was looking to downsize. I have used Ampeg SVT cabinets and amps among other heavy gear for years. I was hoping to find a combo amp that I could lift easily myself, throw it in my car and it would hold it's own. I play often in mostly medium sized rooms and this little amp cuts through with no problem. No rattles, nothing cuts out at higher volume...my bandmates were surprised.
Sound
How is the tone?
The rumble 350 has decent tone for the money. I wasn't sure what to expect when i bought it and I am pleasantly surprised. I am spoiled by tube amps and to me, nothing sounds better than an ampeg SVT or swr, but this was all about the portability at a reasonable price. There could be a day that I splurge on a SWR redhead, but this Fender is getting the job done. It has a few cool features along with a built in adjustable overdrive channel that sounds pretty good. It works well with a basic on/off footswitch. If this amp can last me 2-3 years of live gigging, I'll be a happy camper. Maybe I'll buy another one
