Unleash the full potential of your bass.
The Gallien-Krueger 2001RB Legacy is a powerhouse bass amplifier head that redefines versatility and performance. Building on the legacy of GK's renowned bass amplification, the 2001RB Legacy delivers 1000W of power in a dual-mono configuration, providing exceptional headroom and flexibility for any playing situation. Whether you're driving a single high-powered cabinet or running a stereo rig, the 2001RB Legacy delivers the punch, clarity, and control you need to take your bass playing to the next level.
Dual-Mono Power and Versatility
The 2001RB Legacy features a dual-mono Class H power amplifier, giving you the flexibility to run two independent 500W amplifiers or bridge them together for a single 1000W powerhouse. This versatility allows you to adapt to any gig or studio setup, whether you need to power a single high-powered cabinet or run a stereo rig with separate effects chains. The dual-mono configuration also enhances reliability, ensuring that your sound remains consistent and powerful, even in demanding situations.
Riding the Rails
Like its sibling, the 1001RB Legacy, the 2001RB Legacy excels at "riding the rails." It delivers almost twice the current required to reach full power, providing exceptional headroom and dynamic range. This translates to a responsive and articulate sound with exceptional punch and clarity, even at high volumes. The 2001RB Legacy's ability to maintain control over your speaker cones, even in extreme conditions, makes it ideal for aggressive playing styles and complex musical passages.
Advanced Features for Tonal Control
The 2001RB Legacy is packed with features that give you unprecedented control over your sound. The adjustable limiter allows you to tame excessive signal peaks and prevent unwanted distortion, while the cabinet simulation provides a realistic cabinet feel for your DI and headphone signal. The studio-quality headphone amp delivers exceptional sound quality for silent practice, and the voicing filters allow you to completely re-voice the amplifier with the flip of a switch.
Active EQ and Boost
The 2001RB Legacy features GK's proprietary active 4-band equalizer with variable Q. This EQ allows for precise tonal shaping without compromising your sound. The boost section utilizes two selected field effect stages to optimize the Gate Induced Valve Effect (G.I.V.E.), providing a warm, tube-like grit that can be further shaped with the edge control.
Built for the Demanding Bassist
The Gallien-Krueger 2001RB Legacy is designed for the demanding bassist who requires the ultimate in power, versatility, and reliability. Whether you're playing on stage, in the studio, or at home, the 2001RB Legacy delivers the performance, tone, and features you need to take your bass playing to the next level.
