Hi, it's Freddie Washington, aka Ready Freddie and
we're here checking out the Rumble Stage 800-amp.
It's a brand new amp that's part of a time-tested Rumble series.
It's loaded with tons of features for all types of players.
Let's check it out.

The first thing that you hear is the Rumble has all the sounds
that you already know and love, but with tons of new features.
The thing that I like about the 800 watts that it carries, it has tons of headroom.
So if you're on a large stage, concert hall or even a small space,
you still have headroom to really get out what you need to get out and
play with a band and really push.
Along with the 800 watts,
it has two 10-inch speakers with a compression tweeter.
So say, for instance, if you're playing something that you don't want so
much high end on,
you can turn that tweeter off where you can get more billowy, poppier sound.
Or if you leave it on, you'll get more tech.
That's what I love about this thing, it's so versatile.
The other thing that I like is the stereo sends and returns.
The stereo XLRs that you can use at home or in the studio for studio
recordings or if you're playing live, you can send that sound to the mixing board.
It has aux input.
It has a headphone output.
You can plug your headphones right into it and don't disturb anybody else,
and hear what you're doing without nobody knowing.
It also has USB out, which is great for
recording into your computer and you have tons of flexibility.
This amp includes built-in Wi-Fi, which is a game changer for bass players.
More on that later.
In addition to the physical knobs,
you have the ability to control the whole amp with a color LCD screen.
It's the best of both worlds for maximum control.
The Rumble 800 includes both genre and tone specific presets.
Nobody else is creating such a wide variety of tones for
genres from R&B to metal, to pop and jazz.
The presets include everything from the renowned 59 Bassman to
the monster rigs of the 70s and 80s and all the best modern bass amps.
Let's talk about my favorite preset, the Rockin Peg.
When I first heard it, it was scary close to the original.
Because it had a punch and a clarity, and
a definition that I like out of a bass sound.

We also include over 40-studio quality effects,
ranging from compression to EQ to bass specific favorites like octave effects and
envelope filters, and octobot synth emulators.
These effects makes it easy to craft brand new sounds.
The built-in delay and reverb have a spillover feature.
When you're playing and you want to change the patch, the decay and
the reverb will not cut off.
It will spill over into the next patch, which will make for a smooth transition.
The Rumble Stage 800 is the world's first Wi-Fi equipped bass amplifier.
Players will be able to access Fender artist created presets, download
the latest firmware updates, share user created presets and more via the tone app.
The nice thing about these updates is that as new amp models and
effects are released, you can download them directly to your amp.
These let you to continue to expand your sound and
have the amp grow with you as a player.
Because it has built-in Bluetooth,
you can stream music wirelessly from your Bluetooth device.
What I really like about this feature, the other day, I was practicing to a song.
So I really got to fine tune the bass sound to the sound of the record,
which made a huge difference.
The included four-button foot switch unlocks the amp’s powerful
onboard looping capabilities with up to 60 seconds of record time.
What can you do with the looper?
