[size=4][b]Gallien Krueger 800RB [/b]for sale[/size]

Converted to 240v & given the once over by Justin @ Seeger Amplification aka 'Subthumper' here on BC... Lightweight toroidal transformer fitted - lower RF & more efficient.

Sounds immense, a true classic amp!
In good working condition, small scratch in paint on top of casing.

[color=#000000][font=Arial, Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=3][color=#0000ff][i]Designed 20 years ago, the 800RB has long been a standard of the industry—the choice of countless players, touring bands, and backline companies. The amplifier head delivers 400W of biamp power in a rackmountable metal case, with 4 bands of active EQ, 3 voicing filters, and a weight of only 23 lb. Great deep, punchy sound. Roadworthy and studio friendly. [/i][/color][/size][/font][/color]

£375 ono - sorry no trades.
Local collection preferred (Bristol/Bath), though maybe be able to drop off within reasonable distance for fuel money.
Could also courier at buyers cost.

Please PM me if interested, or for further info etc...
Cheers!

Ohh very nice! For such a classic amp in the States, there's hardly any over here.

Someone messaged me a while back about finding one, I'll dig it out and send them a link. GLWTS

Hi Richard, yes it's the mounting bolt securing the upgraded 240v toroidal transformer. ☺

I had a 400rb of the same vintage and loved the Mid button !
Always wanted an 800 when I was young
