Fender Rumble 100 V3

Fender Rumble 100 V3 — 100-Watt Class-D Bass Combo for Stage and Studio

The Fender Rumble 100 V3 delivers 100 watts of Class-D power through a single 12" Eminence Special Design speaker in a ported plywood cabinet weighing under 10 kg. Built for bassists who need real stage volume without back-breaking weight, this combo brings seismic Fender bass tone to rehearsal rooms, small clubs, and recording sessions. With its blend of vintage character and gig-ready features, the Rumble 100 V3 stands out as a portable solution for working musicians.

Re-Engineered Portability With Vintage Fender DNA

What sets this combo apart is the lightweight ported plywood enclosure paired with a Class-D power section that pushes 100 watts at 8 ohms without the bulk of older bass amps. Access to three voicing options — bright, contour, and vintage — lets players easily switch between high-end zing, mid-scoop, and tube-like warmth. Integration with front-of-house systems is streamlined by the dedicated XLR line output with ground lift and pre/post switching.

Class-D Power and Eminence Speaker — Headroom That Travels

Keeping the cabinet light, the Class-D amplifier topology delivers 100 watts into a 12" Eminence Special Design driver. Bassists can expect enough headroom for live gigs alongside a drummer, while the compact format makes for easy transport. The ported enclosure also extends low-end response, ensuring four-string players feel the room shake.

• Power Output: 100 W at 8 ohms — enough headroom for small-to-mid venue gigs
• Speaker: 12" Eminence Special Design — engineered for full-range bass clarity
• Weighing just 9.98 kg, it's easy to carry to any session or venue.

4-Band EQ and Three-Button Voicing — Dial In Your Signature Sound

Going beyond standard tone controls, the four-band EQ covers bass, low-mid, high-mid, and treble. Players can engage bright, contour, and vintage switches for immediate tonal changes. The overdrive circuit, controllable by footswitch, adds grit and dynamics on demand during a song.

• EQ Bands: Bass, Low-Mid, High-Mid, Treble — precise control across the frequency range
• Voicing Switches: Bright, Contour, Vintage — quickly choose between modern, classic, or scooped sounds
• Activating the drive and level controls brings in footswitchable overdrive for expressive passages.

DI Output, Effects Loop, and Silent Practice — Built for Real-World Use

Multiple connectivity features make this model versatile for both live and home use. The XLR line out with ground lift provides a direct, noise-free signal to the PA, while a 1/4" effects loop accommodates compressors and pedals. Practicing at home or late at night is practical thanks to the aux input and headphone output.

• DI Output: XLR with ground lift — send a balanced signal directly to PA or recording gear
• Effects Loop: 1/4" Send/Return — insert pedals in the optimal spot
• Aux input and headphone jack allow for silent play-along and private rehearsal sessions.

Working Bassists, Gigging Players, and Home Studio Musicians

Designed for musicians who demand a single amp for all situations, this combo fits seamlessly in rehearsal, live, and recording setups. It provides intermediate players with ample headroom and DI output, while gigging bassists benefit from the footswitchable overdrive and direct out. Those recording at home get a clean, full-range signal through the line out, with a headphone jack for quiet practice. Rumble 100 V3's sub-10 kg weight is ideal for anyone commuting between practice spaces or venues by public transport.
