 Make Gallien-Krueger
 Model GK250ML
 Description TINY, but HUGE!!! The Gallien-Krueger GK 250ML combines 100 watts of stereo power with studio effects into a 'lunch-box' sized enclosure--and becomes one of the best selling amps of the 80's. These are the most famous smallest BIG guitar amp ever made. The Gallien-Krueger model 250ML. These amps consistently get user ratings of 8's, 9's and mostly solid 10's by user groups and most players. They are unbelievable, but had a new price tag that was appropriate to their performance (MSRP $800 base price). Very durable, all metal 14 gauge construction and assembled like a 'brick _ _ _ _ house'! All pots, controls and jacks are high quality and have shaft nuts attaching them to the chassis, not just soldered and stuck through the face like almost all modern gear unfortunately is built. Dual channels with Built-in Compression and gain on channel 1 and Huge gain on channel 2. The amp also has a 4-band EQ with centers at 120Hz, 500Hz, 2KHz and 8KHz. There is also a built-in ECHO effect and a Lush Chorus. Listen to some of the old RUSH recordings during the 'Moving Pictures' era to hear what the amp can do. Does it live also either by using the dual 6.5' stereo speakers or by using with one or two 16 ohm, 4 x 12 cabinets such as Marshall or Mesa Boogie. The amp is true stereo and each of the power amps produce a loud 50 watts for 100 watts total. All this in a package not much bigger than a shoe-box!!! (does weigh a lot more than most boxes of shoes though) This is a performance amp, not a practice amp, although it makes a great portable amp as well. There's also a front mounted 1/4' headphone output. Now for the back. It sports a 1/4' stereo AUX / Line / CD input, 1/4' effect send and return jacks, dual 16 ohm external speaker output jacks and an XLR direct line-output. This amp is internally designed very well and is 'tech friendly'. The built-in speakers are perfect with no rattles or buzzes and get REAL LOUD. They are each 16 ohms. If you are very careful and are paying attention your external speakers can also be 8 ohms, but you must remember to defeat the internal speakers prior to connecting them. Measures 13.75' wide x 7.25' deep x 9.5' tall and weighs 17 lbs unpacked. Includes schematics and calibration procedures.
