Gallien-Krueger 400RB G-K Amp - Repair

This amp is in good external condition but needs some work to be reliable. Sometimes when it is turned on there is no sound and you can either turn off and turn on and hope for the best or giving a strong blast of sound (such as a good low E slap at full volume) will shock the amp into working again. Because it is still making sound most of the time, it is probably not a major problem but I can't be sure how big of a repair it would be.

It is missing one screw on the bottom. Otherwise the feet and handle are all in good condition.

I'm selling it with a custom made bag that is still useable. The pockets are big, the zippers and straps are intact but there is a rip on the inside of the amp head compartment. It is also pretty uncomfortable to try to wear it as a backpack but with one shoulder or one hand it is convenient.

My price is $75 plus $50 shipping to CONUS (I'm in Canada) I use paypal.

Thanks for watching!

Try putting a cord in the effects loop. I had one that did the same thing. As long as I had a cord in the effects return to the the effects send it always worked.

Let's say the amp is temporarily unavailable. I'll see if I can fix within the next couple days...

Open up the head and look for loose/dirty connections.
Oh, make sure to unplug it first.

Mr. Lenny, I always look for dirty connections...

I did try to fix it and the amp seems to be working better but not 100%. I don't feel it's going to work in my favor to raise price so it will stay at $75 plus $50 for shipping CONUS. (Someone is getting a great deal! Argh!) Please read the description carefully...
