And hey, you can always mic it up onstage if you land a bigger gig before you land a bigger amp. If you need an amp capable of inspiring you at home, in the jam room or for small gigs, this amp is well-equipped to push you towards new ideas, new sounds and new songs.

But there are bigger amps in the series if that’s what you’re after. Would more volume capability be nice? Well, yeah. It also weighs just 21-pounds in total which is pretty good for carrying it around, but we’ll see. Dial in a flat sound and hit it with some compression, and you’ll have a tone that would be flexible and reliable enough for an entire set’s worth of cover songs right there. The Fender Rumble 25 looks to follow the pattern as it is pretty small actually as it measures about 15.25×15.25×11-inches with its blocky body. The first thing you’ll notice when you plug the LT25 in is that there’s a really usable ‘flat and dry’ sound that lets your bass’ own natural voice do the talking, but which also serves as the perfect platform for effects (either the amp’s built-in ones or external pedals).
Or do what Fender really hopes you’ll do, and accidentally stumble onto a new use for the effect which will go on to inspire the next generation of bass players and make you rich and famous.
Combine it with some spring reverb for a David Lynch kind of feel, cover it in distortion for a post-rock fuzzed-out throb, or use it to add a slow subtle sense of movement to long, sustained notes in a ballad bassline. The classic Fender tremolo sound in particular is really well-represented here, and after over half a century of that sound being used as maybe an afterthought in bass processors while guitarists and electric piano players get to have all the fun, it really feels like it’s being given the care and attention it deserves in the bass sphere. Sounds that we often associate more with guitarists, but which can really help bassists to carve out their own special place in the world. What’s that, you say? Other stuff? Why yes: the Rumble LT25 is designed not just to offer classic standard bass tones, but also sounds that are intentionally more unique and creative – the idea being that Fender wants to push bass players to be inspired to explore new sounds and styles. There are weird Leslie rotating speaker tones, fat distortions, tremolo. A bigger speaker might have given the amp more volume, but at the cost of the sonic fine-points of some of the other stuff the amp is designed to do.

That eight-inch driver is not a huge speaker for a bass amp, but the solid cabinet construction really helps to maximise the sound, focus the low-end through the bass port and give you lots of detail in the middle and high frequencies through the driver.
