HELP! How Many Watts on my GK?
 
I just bought a used GK 412 gs and have no idea how many watts it is. I know it's 8/16 ohms, but other than that, I can't even find on the internet that GK 4x12 ever existed. Please help. I know someone on here knows what this is. Thank you kindly!

Well I can tell you it is a stereo guitar cab! IIRC it was rated at 150 watts per pair (300 total) for guitar.

guitar cab

i wouldn't put anything over 100 watts into it, and i'd start looking for a different cab. it wont last long.

Guess you didn't know G-K used to make guitar amps and cabs as well as bass?

I did not. Also, the a-holes selling it to me obviously knew I was shopping for a bass rig.

Try not to headbutt anyone.
But yes, take it back. Your hook in this instance is "false pretenses".

G-K and the company name before that GMT made both for decades. Carlos Santana bought one of the first amps Bob Gallien made in his garage to take to Woodstock in 1969.
