Gallien Krueger 800RB - *SOLD* £450 Brown Edge, Staffordshire

[umcoo]

Hi all,

 

For sale is my 1986 Gallien Krueger 800RB. This is the OG version with the horizontal switch. I've had it about 18 months, and it was bought from a guy who used it as a backup for his other 2 800RB's!

 

It has just been serviced and given a clean bill of health. Had a grounding issue so a little bit of hum, and one of the 4 ohm outputs didn't work. There was a bit of corrosion on the socket and now all good. 

 

Sounds great, can demolish buildings if that's your thing. Ticking over nicely for an amp nearly 40 years old. 

 

I bought some aftermarket rack ears for it too so it can be put in a flight case. These will be included. 

 

Not keen on shopping so collection is very much preferred. I'm in ST6 in Staffordshire, in between Leek and Stoke. I usually get down to Birmingham with work every few weeks and venture up the M6 to see family quite a bit. 

 

Not looking for any trades thanks!

Happy to pick up any questions

Sorely tempted. Blimey, hard to resist though.

 

I have one already, and two early 400RB's, so it makes no sense, but when did sense come into it?

 

I have alerted a mate on here who will probably buy this.

That's cool! I saw you'd picked one up recently. 

 

If it helps, I used to live in Lancaster so get up that way all the time as we really enjoy that part of the world! 

 

Let me know about your buddy, though!

We're exchanging texts right now, he's going to have a look.

Also, that's a very generous offer, thanks.

I love how these GK amps can be cosmetically challenged in so many ways indicating a long career of use but no one would dare insinuate that they were worn out. These things just last forever - so glad they are getting the love they deserve.
