Gallien Krueger MB115 combo; bracing issues?

Sign in to disble this ad
I've been eyeing this combo amp for quite some time. I'd been rolling with the idea of saving for a pro half/full stack set up til I realized I'd be spending far too much money for size and power I don't need, so I've been looking at <$500 combos. I hear this thing packs a wallop, and any power inadequacies would be solved with a second one, plus the weight makes this a real nice deal in my eyes. But recently I've heard that it's not braced properly which causes a hollow sound and makes the speaker rattle badly after a few months use. Can anyone who's owned this amp for a while shed some light on this? Or even recommend a semi-solution or a better choice for a combo?

yes, i just answered this question elsewhere here. I had similar sounding issue with my MB115 and it was replaced with a new one that has much larger screws holding the main power board in place in the back. The new one works fine. I believe GK has solved this issue.

No issues with mine, and I've had it since last spring. It's been pushed hard, and done a ton of shows.
