    What get wet??!!!

    Dr. Z Amplification Maz 18 Jr NR HeadPublished on 11/07/11 at 12:12

    These amplifiers are quickly becoming one of my all time favorite clean amps. Dr. Z has such a great classic rock tone and what they are all about it pure tone. They have a solid tone and many artists are using them on their records and live touring stages. This amp is very popular with the country players. It has a great tone for guys you like to chick pick and get that chimy clean moderately broken up overdrive sound. These amps prides themselves on being somewhat versatile but more user friendly tone machines. These amps are great for just about any style of music other than metal. This amp is the same as the combo but just in a head version. You get the same great features and tone as…

    These amplifiers are quickly becoming one of my all time favorite clean amps. Dr. Z has such a great classic rock tone and what they are all about it pure tone. They have a solid tone and many artists are using them on their records and live touring stages. This amp is very popular with the country players. It has a great tone for guys you like to chick pick and get that chimy clean moderately broken up overdrive sound. These amps prides themselves on being somewhat versatile but more user friendly tone machines. These amps are great for just about any style of music other than metal. This amp is the same as the combo but just in a head version. You get the same great features and tone as the combo but without the speakers. You get a cool surf green tolex color that is just awesome and fits this amp very well.

    UTILIZATION

    Power Output: 18 Watts
    Output Tubes: 2 - EL-84
    Preamp Tubes: 3 - 12AX7
    Rectifier: 1 - GZ34
    Controls: Volume, Treble, Mid, Bass, Cut, and Master Volume
    Dimensions and Weight: 19" W, 9 3/4" H, 9.5" D; 22 lbs.

    SOUNDS


    This amp will sound slightly different than the combo version because of the speakers and cab that you use will effect the tone a little bit. This amp sounds very big and that may be one of their selling points. Their amps aren't a hole lot of power but have a brilliance of volume and girth that make them sound incredible. The tone of this amp is pretty good. It has a nice blend of the power tubes and preamp valves. This is an amp that will take pedals very well. It has a nice effects loop to allow its user to insert delays and chorus sound into the effects loop and still keep the same preamp tone. For not being a whole lot of power it still packs a big punch in volume and tone.

    These amps have a familiar control knob called "cut" which you may have seen on another amp called the Vox Ac30. This allows you to dial in some of that class grind. The "cut" knob may be the most useful and versatile tone shaping tool on any guitar amp. Throughout its range, it produces a large variety of sounds to satisfy players using all guitars for most every style of music. The "cut" knob is best used after the EQ is all set; turn it up for extra edge, turn it down for a more vintage sound.

    OVERALL OPINION


    At new these amps come in right at around $1400. That is a great price for an amp that sound this good. There is no up charge or down charge for this combo in this grill cloth custom change. Some other colors and options to charge more but not this one. It is a very usable gigging amp and will treat its owner quite well. I would recommend this amp to anyone who used to like s a good clean tone that can get a solid chimey and sustaining overdrive tone.

    NIce beefy clean tones

    This amp is very popular with the country players. It has a great tone for guys you like to chick pick and get that chimy clean moderately broken up overdrive sound. These amps prides themselves on being somewhat versatile but more user friendly tone machines. This amp is the same as every other Maz 18 Jr but just in a solid red tolex option. Luckily there is no up charge for this combo color. You get the same great tone and features but just in a cool looking covering. This one also doesn't feature any reverb. This amp sounds exactly like the combo version but just in the head model.

    UTILIZATION

    At new these amps come in right at around $1399. That is a great price for an amp that sound this good. There is no up charge or down charge for this combo in this red tolex covering. Some other colors and options to charge more but not this one. It is a very usable gigging amp and will treat its owner quite well. I would recommend this amp to anyone who used to like the way a Vox AC30 sounded before they started making everything in China. This is going to appeal to those type of players and also the guys who like Fender but need a little bit more drive in the tone.
