6 YEAR EXTENDED WARRANTY SCHEME

The product price includes 2 years' warranty and 30 day money back guarantee.

However, the Gear4music extended warranty scheme provides an enhanced service, and is designed to offer a higher level of protection than many 'free' warranties offered by some retailers and manufacturers.

The highlights of this enhanced warranty service are:

  • Warranty is extended to 6 years from the date of delivery.
  • Our Money Back guarantee is extended from 30 days to 180 days (terms apply after 30 days)
  • Collection and delivery costs are included for the first 2 years in the event of an item becoming faulty
  • Claim 50% cash back on the cost of the policy after 6 years if it has not been used!
  • Warranty is transferable if the item is re-sold
  • Loan or replacement equipment will be provided if the product isn't repaired within 30 days
  • If an item can not be repaired, a similar alternative product or cash discount (as defined in this policy) will be offered
  • The policy can be cancelled within 30 days, and at any time after that for a pro-rata discount

Please note that this extended warranty is currently only available on products sold within the EU or EEA, and is subject to the terms and conditions as detailed on the extended warranty certificate provided.

For customers in outlying areas of the country, the price of the Extended Warranty may be marginally higher, due to the potential for higher collection and redelivery transport costs.

This enhanced warranty is in addition to the standard Gear4music and manufacturer warranty policies, and the Gear4music terms and conditions of trade. No statement or condition of sale contained within these terms affects or restricts your statutory rights as defined under the Consumer Contracts Regulation 2014.

The Final Word on Bass Amplification

Whilst you may have never heard of Gallien Krueger you have heard one on record. The choice for serious performers and artists. The RB series has forever been at forefront of bass amp design. The amplifier for true professionals. Flea from the Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Duff McKagan of Guns’n’Roses fame, a huge array of genre spanning session players and the jazz legend Dave Holland. They all use these exceptionally crafted, US built bass amplifiers.

Their popularity amongst the pros stems from their commitment to tonal quality. The RB 1001 proves this through its top-class electronics and architecture. This 1080-watt mega amp provides huge volume and some of the most in-depth tone shaping possible out of an amplifier. It all starts at the power 4-Band EQ. Shaping the foundation of your tone with pin point accuracy. Then the voicing filters, through which the signal is boosted or attenuated to taste. Push the signal through a little bit of overdrive using the in-built drive circuit or completely mangle it for that hardcore tone. It all adds to an incredible bass playing experience.

Total Tonal Power

Non-compromised tonal clarity. The RB 1001 features a unique horn bi-amp system, this gives you huge sound. This is used to send the high-end frequencies to the horn through a separate amplifier. This means that the horn level can be controlled on the front panel and keeps the amplifier from breaking from heavy usage. Make sure that every note maintains full impact every time. The two 540-watt power amps allow for a versatile bridged or dual mono operation which allows for expansive cabinet set ups.

Built for the Road

Gallien Krueger are known for creating great looking and incredibly tough cabinets. They know that the professional musician is often on the road for weeks at a time and needs to be assured their equipment will last the journey. This informs every design decision they make – resulting in tough, great sounding amplifier heads. The RB head is built for portability but can also fit snugly in three units of rack space. Gallien Krueger is all about top class tone, but without a solid construction, that incredible tone is put at risk from the dangers of road. Gallien Krueger’s design ensures complete safety.
