Well, this may very well be my next amp. I tried one a couple of years ago and I have not forgotten how I impressed I was ...

Now I just heard this clip - http://gimik.fr.free.fr/Steam/save-me-sample.mp3
Gear used on the clip: Maz 18 Head - 2x12” cab loaded with Celestion Greenback - 1986 RI 62’Strat w/Velvet Hammer pickups - Fulltone OCD - Vox Wah

I love that tone! :DR What do you guys think?

Instead of buying another guitar, I think a good head would do me good. The Maz 18 Jr seems like it was made for me...:) It's very versatile, and works for country, blues and rock. It has an effects loop too for my Lexicon, yummy.:p

Hello Robert,

That sounds great! It reminds me of Plankton's sound.

Sorry Robert I thought you knew about Plankton the band from Sweden.http://www.plankton.nu/music.html These guys sound great. Once in a while one of the guitarists sound reminds me of the sound that you referred to in your post of the Dr Z Mas 18 Jr.

Rob I've envisioned you with a Dr. Z amp for some time now and with a couple o' killer Greenbacks in the mix you'd totally rule.

First of all:
PLANKTON rules! I have been following their musical output for two or three years right now and their music is so great....

But back to topic:
We have a shop here in Germany and they distribute the Dr Z amps. They have 4-5 models in stock always. During a workshop tour I had the chance to play the Dr Z amps and it was almost the best sound I have ever heard coming out of an amp!

I know they are kind of expensive, but you should definitely take into consideration buying one of these when the budget fits - thinking of your style of playing Robert, this amp could elevate your excellent playing even more!

The clip was awesome and it sounded so Jimi-like...

Yeah, I must have a Dr Z fix soon! They are a bit expensive, but they are hand-made in the USA instead of mass-produced in Asia.

I tell myself I deserve some quality gear!

The resell value is also very good on these amps.
