GK 700RB/112 combo(Not Neo/MKII)

[ilovenofrets]

Looking for anyone who owns/owned/uses/used this amp. Not the Neo, but the original. Can't find much info or reviews, except for the 210 or 115. A friend of mine is selling his 112, and I'd love any feedback from anyone with any experience with it. Let it be said that I do love the GK tone, and have owned or used GK amps(combos and heads), and have never been dissatisfied.

I used to have a 400RB-III 210 combo. I think it had too much oomph for the small speaker cab. I'd be really concerned about blowing a 112 with that head, but as long as you don't turn up too loud, it should be fine. If you like it, and the price is right, go for it. I would. If the amp blows (or if you just want to upgrade) you can send the head back to GK for upgrade to mark II for $250. I should be getting mine back in a few days!

I would be using it with an extension cab, so not too worried about running the 12 by itself.
