GALLIEN-KRUEGER GK 800RB BASS AMP HEAD INDUSTRY STANDARD 800 RB AMPLIFIER

All kinds of power in a small box head!

Description

You're looking at a Gallien-Krueger 800RB, the industry standard lightweight solid state bass amp head. Lots of power in a small, easy-to-carry package. These are workhorse amps. I am a guitar dealer and this is from my personal stash. I buy and sell these amps and tried about 6 of them before I settled on this one. Many of these heads tend to heat up hot enough to fry an egg. This one operates cool as a cucumber even when you push the volume. All controls work perfect and all outputs work.

These are light enough to carry with two fingers, give you 300 watts of good clean headroom and a very useable EQ. Good cosmetic condition. Has a Melvins sticker on one side and is missing four knob caps. I'm only parting with this because a project of mine has ended. I'm sure I'll be out there looking for another within a year. These are very hearty, good sounding amps. I think I have an old set of rack ears lying around for these too if buyer wants them. Thanks for looking.

What You Get

All our setups are done by our in-house trained luthier. Setup includes new strings (9s or 10s depending on what the nut is cut for), overall polish, cleaning any gunk off fingerboard, oiling neck, and polishing frets when necessary. We spray out any pots that are noisy, turn the truss rod (if necessary) and set string height at low-to-medium action depending on string buzz present. Since setup is highly subjective you may need to get it set to your particular needs by your personal luthier. Basses get the same treatment minus the string change. Thanks!

I use quality boxes, thick bubble wrap, and peanuts to pack guitars. I have a very high rate of successful guitar and bass shipping (meaning few damaged instruments). I have been doing this 10 years and know how to pack well--with or without a hard case. I wrote a detailed story with photos on how I pack a guitar, which you can find on my StillKickinMusic site blog. If you Google "THERE IN ONE PIECE...How to Pack a Guitar" you will find it. Thanks.
