Amp question

Hi, I just snatched this GK 112LC up a bit ago and I can’t find any information on it especially the pedal. I believe it’s from 1984 but not really sure. Any info on a manufactured date or value would be greatly appreciated! Thanks yall!!!

Does one have to have a reason to ask a question on here? Guess I’ll go elsewhere! Good to see you take to new people well...

:sorry:. Plenty of other guitar amps we could discuss :smug:. We could also discuss a range of bass related topics :rolleyes:. But if you really only care about the GK 112LC, you may not get anything more helpful than what I offered. Or maybe someone will pop in with a ton of background and useful information :bookworm:.

The pedal appears to require two cables. I found the following images of the amp. I believe the footswitch should be plugged into the A/B and Reverb jacks. I believe one button turns the Reverb off and on, and the other button switches between the Channel A and Channel B.

The Position of this Button on the left side of the front panel may impact the operation of the footswitch. It may allow you to select between A or B or A plus B.

My guess is the tone controls are common to both channels

These are all guesses. You will need to fiddle with the amp and figure it out.

Good luck!

The '84 guess would be about right for this one 12 Lead Combo (LC).

The prior function discription regarding the foot switch and the dual cables is spot on. The A or B or A/B gives you the two independent volume setting for a "boost" going from one to the other. My guess would be a cascading gain stage for saturation with the master volume with VOLUME A - VOLUME B and a separate Volume (gain) at the front end. Also, the Reverb may only operate on one of the channels, but could also be On/Off type of thing, too.

Peace!
