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 all
musicians, I have lugged amplifiers up stairways
and into car trunks, always wondering why these
things had to be so heavy, bulky and hard to
handle.
As the principal innovator at GK, our
products reflect my attitudes and life
experiences. I don’t model my designs after
other manufacturers’ products. Instead, I
believe new and old problems are best solved with
new solutions. Having
products enjoy a unique, unmatched sound,
allowing you every opportunity to make an
original statement.
Having supported my products for over
forty years, I have learned from the story they tell.
Gallien-Krueger is a reflection of that story, and
has a commitment to support that legacy. Just as
the products I created over forty years ago are still
telling their story, the products we create today
will be talking to us tomorrow.

We’ll be listening,

Robert Gallien
Founder and President

taken our own path, GK
