2 Technical Innovation Like all musicians, I ve lugged amps up plenty of stairways, battled tough acoustics, cramped stages, unreliable power, and inadequate gear. Gallien-Krueger is largely a response to these life experiences. I m a Stanford educated engineer who worked his way through school as a musician. As Gallien-Krueger s director and principal innovator, I have always strived to design and build amplifiers that meet the real needs of real working bass players: practical, reliable, portable, powerful, affordable, and most importantly, that have the sound and response players need to make their best music. I am proud of the reputation GK enjoys in the bass world. I am also proud of the many ways we ve improved our amps over the years. Without gimmicks, fancy cosmetics, or marketing flim-flam. Just real, substantive, innovative design refinements that have yielded improved sound, power, and functionality. Our 2002 product line is our best ever. Just as our 800RB amplifier has set the standard for large-venue amplification over the last two decades, our new RB heads and combos will set the standard in professional bass amp performance for years to come.

4 Artist Series - HEADS - The Bi-Amp Advantage Many players want a little growl in their sound, but due to horn distortion, it is hard to get good sounding overdrive from passive full-range systems. The 700RB, 1001RB and 2001RB are bi-amped with a separate 50W amp for driving the horn, so it doesn t distort when you drive the amp hard. As a result, you can get all the growl you want from your lower speakers, while the horn stays clean and articulate. GK amps also put the horn control on the amp front panel, which makes managing your overall sound that much easier. FLEA (RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS) Two Speakon TM Style cables included. 2001RB Dual Bi-amp 2 x 500W + 2 x 50W It s the big gun, GK s candidate for the ultimate stage rig for the coming decade! It s based on the bi-amp system from the 1001RB but with dual 500W woofer amps bridgeable to 1000W, two 50W horn amps and two continuously variable speed fans for cooling. It gets the deep, floor-shaking, warm sound that powers reggae bands. For rock players it features a special design distortion circuit that lets you quickly dial in the perfect growl and drive. For funk players, its voicing filters and bi-amp controls let you scoop the mids and add the perfect high-end edge needed for popping. For any style of music performed on arena stages, the 2001RB is destined to be the premier amp of choice. POWER <1% THD: Low-2x540W@2ž, 1080W Bridged@4ž 1kHz. High-2x50W@8ž, 5kHz.

DIMENSIONS: 19''W x 5.25''H x 12''D 2001RB Distortion Circuits The secret to the 2001RB s smooth, natural distortion is that the horn amp is automatically muted when the high gain channel is activated, thus preventing any raspy distortion from the horns. The horn amps can also be muted on the low gain channel as needed for certain blues sounds. Such horn muting is only possible with a bi-amp system, and only the 2001RB has this circuitry design. Easy on-stage control is provided by a 3-button footswitch, which mutes the horns, selects channels A or B, and also activates the tuning mute. 2001RB Microprocessor System Manager An 8-bit microprocessor constantly monitors the 2001RB system, making sure everything is running correctly. It patiently waits for you to push the power switch, and then sends a signal to your other GK power amps to turn them on in proper order. Artists such as Flea and Tom Hamilton use up to five heads, and with the 2001RB, they only push one switch to fire up their entire system. 4

9 Classic Series - HEADS- Extreme Power! It begins with the transformer. We use toroids. Although they cost more, they don t induce hum into pickups. They are lightweight and really pack a punch. To generate the tremendous currents needed for cone control at high volume levels, we use extra output devices and sophisticated SOA protection circuits. These too are more costly, but result in up to ten times more current than other comparable amps deliver. To keep things cool, we rely on temperature controlled, variable speed fans. So, when you really need to lean on it, a GK amp will deliver extreme power...effortlessly. GRETA BRINKMAN (MOBY) 800RB Bi-Amp 300W + 100W This tried-and-true classic has set the standard for back-line bass amplification for two decades. Versatile and powerful, it drives multiple cabinets with ease. Its bi-amped power and custom voicing filters make it exceptionally controllable. It is light, rack mountable, tonally versatile, and delivers bass sound that is warm, clean, and strong. Today it still tops the list of amplifiers that pro players, touring bands, and back-line companies rely on for the big gigs. POWER <1% THD: 4ž, 8ž 1kHz, 8ž, 1 khz. COOLING: Convection.

It also comes fully loaded with pro features: toroidal transformer, series 4-band active EQ, extra output devices and sophisticated SOA protection circuits, and a variable speed fan to keep things cool while operating at high output levels. Basically it has all the primary features found in the other RB amps but without bi-amping. This makes it substantially more affordable, and puts the warm, clean GK sound in reach of many more players. POWER <1% THD: 4ž, 8ž 1kHz COOLING: Continuously Variable Speed Fan.
