Dr z ft

What's Hot
llewllew Frets: 78
edited September 2014 in Amps £
I'm looking to trade my Dr z maz jnr reverb head and 2x10 cab, recently revalved and sound's cracking. But my band isn't gigging that much anymore so I'm looking for a little combo to use in the house but also for the occasional gig.Single channel ptp fender style amp love that glassy fender clean tone.

    Hadn't really thought about it to be honest, the head is the old type without the eq bypass and the cab is about 4 months old.

    Dunno what they usually go for? It's in excellent condition and sound's killer. Now I come to think about it I'm not 100% sure I want to get rid of it? :-?

  • I've got exactly the same amp and speakers and I use mine at home all the time as well as for gigs - you'll regret letting it go!

  • if you're wanting to get some natural drive sounds out of it at home, i've noticed that there are a couple of Break-Lite attenuators for sale on this forum - that might be a better solution than getting a different amp.

    Tried most of the attenuators including the air brake and brake lite and I don't like how they change the tone.I'v been away from home since Monday so I expect i'l change my mind about swapping it as soon as i plug it in on the weekend lol.

  • Don't do it I've done it twice and regretted it I swaped first one out for a fender super 1962 vintage 2x10 great amp but not as versitile as maz so sold it and brought maz again then sold it and brought dr z ezg fantastic amp loved it but to much headroom so outed it for headstrong beautiful amp but not enough head room so you guessed it sold it and brought the newer maz with the open back 2x12 and I love it it's the newer model though and I find it a lot better than my old one I don't use the eq bypass but seriously you will miss it when it's gone!

    I'm selling a fender style amp in the for sale thread, I'd consider a swap if that suit? I'm in swindon so could meet half way.

    @llew, i played a Therapy when I bought my (simply superb) Monza from the lovely John at Peach Guitars, and I thought it was fantastic. Much more controllable, imho, than the Maz and a different sound and feel...

    The EZG is a wonderful amp; a different take on the Blackface theme, and the reverb was quite exceptional.

    But the Maz is a stunning amp too. I had a fair bit of time with one, and the variety of sounds is incredible.

    It is great especially live.I'm just lusting after great fender clean tone.The maz isn't a bad amp to be stuck with I suppose lol.

  • Out of all my amps Ive owned (Redplate, Carr, Jim Kelley, Tone King etc etc) the Dr Z Monza is THE best home amp ive played... Still shocked by it...
