GK Philosophy
I have never seen the point in doing things the
way others have done them. I also have not
been very interested in following the latest fad.
I’m a Stanford educated engineer who worked
my way through school as a musician. Like
l musicians, I have lugged amplifiers up
al
irways and into car trunks, always wondering
sta
wh
y these things had to be so heavy, bulky, and
hard to handle.
As the principal innovator at GK, our products

new and old
solutions
ucts enjoy a unique, unmatched sound,
prod
lowing you every opportunity to make an
al
original statement.
Having supported my products for over thirty
ars, I have learned from the story they tell.
ye
Gallien
has a commitment to support that legacy. Just as
the products I created over thirty five years ago
are still telling their story, the products we create
today will be talking to us tomorrow.
We’ll be listening,
s’ products. Instead, I believe
pro
blems are best solved with new
. Having taken our own path, GK
-Krueger is a reflection of that story, and
