Gallien-Krueger Bass Amplifier Heads

By acting as the bridge between the harmony and rhythm of your group, the bass player's role is an important one, which is why every bassist needs to be confident that their skills are being showcased through an amp head that can highlight their strongest traits. Of course, it's for this reason why Gallien-Krueger has remained a go-to name for bass players since 1968. Known worldwide for their distinctive growl, Gallien-Krueger bass amp heads have earned the praise of many famous bass players, including Tom Hamilton of Aerosmith, Ted Dwane of Mumford and Sons, and Flea of Red Hot Chili Peppers.

Regardless of the instrument you play, every musician has their own tastes and preferences when it comes to how they want to sound, and this most certainly includes bass players. Thankfully, Gallien-Kruger offers a variety of bass amp heads that cover a wide range of tones. For example, the MB500 500W Ultra-Light Bass Amp Head boasts GK's legendary 4-band active EQ, and it also provides many tone-shaping capabilities. Additionally, this amp head offers a tuner out with mute, an FX loop, and dual Speakon outputs... overall making the MB500 a compact beast that's ideal for both studio and live performance applications.

While you're at it, you'll also definitely want to check out the MB Fusion 800W Hybrid Bass Amp Head. Delivering 800 watts of chest-crushing power, the MB800 is built to handle even the largest venues. Using FET technology to drive the GK four-band active EQ, this monster can transition from clean to crunch seamlessly. No doubt, the MB800 is perfect for any serious bass player with big-time aspirations.
