1987 Gallien-Krueger 200RCB Bass Amplifier Head

Vintage micro-sized amp, in excellent cosmetic and working condition


This is something that just fell into my lap yesterday, a killer little bass head with an on-board EQ and chorus. And of course, it's GK, one of the top names in bass amps.

I haven't messed around with this too much yet, having it for just over 24 hours, but it looks and sounds really clean. No noises whatsoever when pushing the knobs around and the chorus is right in line with 1987. This is a 100-watt amp, so it should be perfect for playing bars and small clubs, which is most likely what it will be used for from here on out.

Series II is listed on the back, but I haven't been able to find much information on this amp to know exactly what that means. I've read that this amp does contain many of the same parts as the 400RB from the same period, one of the top bass heads of all-time and still in production to this day.

Thanks for looking, more high-resolution photos here.
