Fusion 800S

The Fusion S Series Heads are GK’s brand new Class D Model heads with a tube preamp. The rich warmth of tubes combined with the quick, punchy power section that GK bass amps are known for is an experience like no other. These high powered heads incorporate three 12ax7 tubes in the preamp, including one dedicated to the overdrive channel, making it GK’s first ever tube driven overdrive channel. Illuminated knobs add an extra level of sophistication and design by not only making it easier to dial in your tone on stage and but adding a beautiful stage presence as well. Each illuminated knob is also push activated, with additional voicing filters and tonal characteristics built in.

Like the Legacy Series, the Fusion S series uses a unique interconnection system that eliminates problems that can develop over time from constant vibration and temperature extremes that gear is subjected to with heavy use. Using circuit boards with gold plated connectors, rather than cables with standard tin connectors, this type of construction delivers a more pure, reliable sound. Features include GK’s classic 4 band EQ, tube Overdrive complete with tone shaping, additional push button voicing filters such as “Bump”, “Contour”, and “Presence”, Balanced DI with Pre and Post EQ, an Effects Loop, Aux and Headphone connections, and Load capacity selection, to deliver optimum power into 2, 2.7, 4 and 8ohm cabinet configurations.

To get the best match between your instrument and the Legacy Gallien-Krueger have included an adjustable input trim control. When this is adjusted so the clip light only flashes occasionally you have the perfect setup for your instrument.

Gallien-Krueger have avoided putting a sound effect into the amplifier that may be out of style next year. Instead they use two tube stages set up like the input stage of a tube power amp. So when it is hit hard you get a breakup similar to a tube power amp. We have added body and edge controls to help you shape the sound to your situation.

Legacy heads come with a complete patch bay. The balanced DI has selectable Pre/Post and ground lift switches. Phones and Aux In are 1/8” jacks to accommodate the most common jacks used for these features. Tuner, Footswitch, Send and Return are all ¼” to better accommodate these connections. The included Footswitch turns the Overdrive Chanel on and off.

Controls

Trim/Voice
Adjusts the level of signal from the 1/4” input. The knob indicator flashes red when the incoming signal exceeds the input circuit’s capability. Pressing the knob engages/disengages additional EQ pre shaping to re-voice the amplifier. The knob indicator is lit blue when this additional voice is active
Normal/On
Adjusts the volume level of the Normal channel. Pressing this knob engages the Normal channel. The knob indicator is lit blue when the Normal channel is active.
Overdrive/On
Adjusts the amount of overdrive when the Overdrive channel is active. Pushing this knob engages the Overdrive circuit. When Overdrive is active this knob indicator as well as Edge/Cut and Level/Body knob indicators are illuminated
Edge/Cut
Adjusts the high frequency response of the Drive circuit. Pushing this knob engages/disengages the Cut function to reduce frequencies above 5kHz. The knob indicator changes from white to blue when Cut is engaged
Level/Body
Adjusts the output level when Overdrive is active. Pushing the knob engages/disengages the Body function that adds low frequency enhancement post distortion when Overdrive is active. The knob indicator changes from white to blue when Body is engaged.

Eq

Bass/Bump
Boosts or cuts bass frequencies. Pressing the knob engages/disengages the Bump feature which applies additional low frequency enhancement. The knob indicator changes from white to blue when Bump is active
Lo-Mid/Cont
Boosts or cuts low-mid frequencies. Pressing the knob activates the Contour feature to reduce mid frequencies while simultaneously boosting low and high frequencies. The knob indicator changes from white to blue when Contour is engaged
Hi-Mid/Hicut
Boosts or cuts hi-mid frequencies. Pressing the knob activates the Hicut feature that reduces high frequencies to remove unwanted clicking and string noise. The knob indicator changes from white to blue when Hicut is engaged
Treble/Pres
Boosts or cuts treble frequencies. Pressing the knob activates the Presence feature which applies high frequency enhancement. The knob indicator is lit blue when Presence is engaged
Master/Mute
Adjusts the main output volume of the speaker and headphone output. Pressing the knob mutes the output from the speaker, headphone and direct output.
