Members DaSkip Posted January 19, 2008 Members Share Posted January 19, 2008 Well, all I can tell you other than it sounds great with or without effects. I've used Single Coils, Humbuckers and P-90's through it. oof...................it's more than good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members FAC123 Posted January 19, 2008 Members Share Posted January 19, 2008 what tele?what settings?tubes?mine is no where near ice picky. I know people love them, so I've always wondered what was up. This was in a store. They had a whole room full of them--they sell a lot of them--so I don't think it was just one that was potentially bad. I tried them with and without reverb. The tubes would have been stock, and I suppose the speaker could have been overly stiff. The tele was off the floor, so I can't fully vouch for that one, but it was nice and sounded great through some of the other amps I tried. I also tried it with my Les Paul Special DC (P90's), which I CAN fully vouch for, but I was not stoked there, either. I tried lots of settings, so if it is one of those amps that takes a while to figure out, I never got to that point. I did not buy it. But, so you don't think I am a total d-head Dr. Z hater, I tried the new Mini-Z head and liked it so much I went back to buy it with the cool 2X10 cabinet but it was gone...and, as luck/fate would have it, they had the best ES-335 I had ever played, so I got that instead, and now my gear budget is shot for a while...

Members olejason Posted January 19, 2008 Members Share Posted January 19, 2008 Where'd you get it at? I was checkin out a Carmen Ghia in guitar emporium tonight. I know that place in Lexington used to carry a lot of Dr. Z stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members FAC123 Posted January 19, 2008 Members Share Posted January 19, 2008 Where'd you get it at? I was checkin out a Carmen Ghia in guitar emporium tonight. I know that place in Lexington used to carry a lot of Dr. Z stuff The store is in Santa Monica. They had one or two of just about every amp Dr. Z makes. Thinking about it gives me GAS for the Mini Z head again (but, not the Maz jr...). I forgot to mention earlier that in my previous amp quest, I ended up with the TopHat Club Royale, which has a very similar tube complement to the Maz jr. (El84's, ~20 watts, etc.). I guess what prompted my response was that someone earlier mentioned that the Maz Jr was "peerless"...the TopHat was the same price, similar configuration, has similarly cool people running the company (Brian has always responded courteously, personally, and quickly to my e-mails and offered lots of good advice) and to me, sounded better/less harsh, which we all know is subjective. Thus, to me, there is at least one peer that is worth checking out... If I were interested in a dual EL84 amp and had ~$1500 to spend on a new amp, I would check out both the Maz Jr. and the Club Royale before making any decisions. There are others that are more expensive, but for the money, the Dr Z and the TopHat are in a similar class (e.g., peers). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members fuzzface71 Posted January 19, 2008 Members Share Posted January 19, 2008 I was originally gonna get a Maz 18, but settled for a Maz 38 instead.It's an amp that's like a cross between a Fender Deluxe, Vox AC30 and a Marshall amp. I do agree with guy who said about how it can be ice-pickywith a tele though. But the amp is so tweakable that you find that right sweet spot.Here's mine:Check out my Dr.Z, devoted thread. http://acapella.harmony-central.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1747155&highlight=fuzzface71 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members mrweems Posted January 20, 2008 Members Share Posted January 20, 2008 Weems, how loud and clean can Maz 18 go expressed in TRRI vol numbers? well i play in a loud band. and my other guitar player uses a rectoverb. basically.. I sometimes overpower him.. Not in the cleans when he has a solo boost going though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KjStrat62 Posted January 20, 2008 Author Members Share Posted January 20, 2008 Will probably trade toiday. Do have one question though. Since it is a one channel amp how do you go from cleans to overdrive.?? Cut knob perhaps?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RoboPimp Posted January 20, 2008 Members Share Posted January 20, 2008 cleans on an 2xEL84 amp? Maybe at bedroom volumes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Zoidberg Posted January 20, 2008 Members Share Posted January 20, 2008 The non-reverb version has an effects loop.I know, because I have one.Excellent amp, great value for money. Stop posting and start buying. Hmm, tough choice, I wouldn't know if I'd get the non-fx loop w/ reverb one, or the non-reverb w/fx loop-one.. I have looked into the Maz 18 Jr, but I've yet to find one in a store near me to try out.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jakkeh Posted January 20, 2008 Members Share Posted January 20, 2008 RoboPimp, I thought that, but apparently it just.. is a very loud, very clean amp. From everyone I've asked about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
