The RB Legacy Series represents fifty years of design, innovation and industry experience at Gallien-Krueger. Designed by founder and president, Bob Gallien, the RB Legacy Series sets the stage for a new era in professional sound equipment. Packing unprecedented performance, studio quality sound, boundless features, punch that never quits, indestructible analogue power, and a metal enclosure machined to perfection, the RB Legacy bass amps are sure to meet the needs of the most discerning of players, whether on the road, in the studio, or at home.
The RB Legacy 1001 RB and 2001 RB are equipped with Class H power amplifiers, which have two power supplies. One that operates lower output levels and one that handles higher output levels. These amps are designed to be played loud and with this configuration, it not only improves reliability, but allows you to play hard into the rails (maximum output) without overheating the amplifier or worrying about your tone giving out. When you play loud, the RB Legacy produces a powerful, growly sound. Other than packing immense power, the RB Legacy Amps feature a wealth of modern features such as an adjustable limiter, built-in cabinet simulation to control your DI-tone, a stereo headphone amp delivering studio quality playback, an AUX-in, three voicing filters, an active EQ and Boost section.
