My teeny, ultra lightweight, Fender rumble 100 V3, managed a loud(ish) blues gig in a crowded bar last night. I was very impressed. It was up against drums, keys and a guitarist going through a 50w Sound City head. I was told, by another bassist in the audience, that it had a nice deep low end as well (and the volume wasn't even maxed out).

I'm very impressed.

  I put it on a wooden floor and took the bass down to about 9 o'clock. This stopped the speaker struggling to reproduce too much bass while the wooden floor reinforced the low end.
  
  I used it for a gig with my country band recently too. But they are much quieter.

  I like the look, and sound (and ultra lightweight nature) of the Rumble 100
  I've seen & heard them at bass bash events and heard one at an acoustic gig
  Wondered how they would cope alongside a fuller band though - cheers for that gjones

  Thanks for the info gjones! I guess you didn't depress any of the 'effect' buttons (vintage etc) and apart form the bass left the knobs pretty much at 12 o'clock? Let me know and I will give it a try this week at rehearsal instead of my normal 800W rig! Thanks!
