Dr.Z Mazerati GT Demo

[TheNathanTheory]

This demo is fantastic. I wish that all demos were done this well.  Playing a variety of guitars and no useless whaling. I appreciate that you predominately played percussively and nice big open chords-this really helps us to hear what the amplifier actually sounds like.

[LarryRickenbacker]

Too ..modern and distortion heavy for my 60s style. I'll stick with my Ghia. Dr.Z makes great amps and in all fairness it's likely that even I could find good usable tones with this high-octane amp.

[cosmshaman]

i just got one. it's a Beast.

[anthony0803]

Evanfrmheaven is either deaf, stupid or both. Either way he is a poor lost soul who has no clue what good tone is. He is just a follower who buys whatever the guitar magazine says sounds good. Anyways, I've yet to meet a person who demoed a dr z in a store and didn't buy one.(unless of course they didn't have the money for it)

[evanfrmheaven]

@anthony0803 Anthony, I not perfect, but parts of me are, look these Z amps are just wimpy sorry, you can't drop bombs with a pee shooter!

[StephenFiorentini]

So simple, but thats why it works!

[StephenFiorentini]

Good amp

[thekid377]

Great demos guys. Any chance of a Carmen Ghia soon?

[lberretta]

Wonderfull amp!!! Can I get loud clean sounds from this amp without turn down the volume knob from my fender strato?

[MrSemperfidelis225]

Love those amps!

[Jolian123]

wow! how much is this?

[cap217cap217]

Thanksfor the quick replys... Great service and I think great amps. Wish I could play more of them but I cant find them anywhere. Just used from time to time.... Never knew you were in Maple Hts. Do you do amp service on other amps?

[cap217cap217]

Thanks.... what studio do you record this in? I work from all the studios in Cleveland and do not know where you are doing this.

[drzamps]

@cap217cap217

This was done at Noise Floor. It's the old 609 studio.

[cap217cap217]

Dr. Z.... I came across ne of these in a combo. You dont sell these though. Was this a special order? Im from Cleveland but found it in Vegas.

[drzamps]

@cap217cap217

The original Mazerati was available as a combo. The GT is only available as a head.

[Peelick]

This amp sounds great, but what amp in the Dr z line could get this same tone but with more watts? SRZ 65??

[therecordfable]

Peavey=fail.

[therecordfable]

I recently bought a version 1 Mazerati, the greatest amp of all time.8)

[Xandrixen]

Thank you !

Obviously Dr.Z is great for rock'n''roll. But for heavy i will get Peavey. Someday i will try to rock on a Dr.Z amp :-)

[evanfrmheaven]

sounds thin and wimpy.

[drzamps]

@evanfrmheaven

Computer speakers and you tube's audio compression makes everything thin and wimpy.

[KevinSaale]

@drzamps

Very true, this amp is by no means thin or wimpy.

I played one of these once and almost ran out of the store with it. This is a seriously amazing amp.

[TheCrystalyne]

@evanfrmheaven

Get a decent sound card and a pair of half decent near field monitors and it'll sound great

[evanfrmheaven]

@TheCrystalyne I don't know, I have played one and I cant get the amp to sound like a tube amp, just sounds like a Marshall 900.

[El83Er]

@evanfrmheaven

you kidding, right?!

[evanfrmheaven]

@El83Er Im sorry, but quite serious, i have a number of great tube amps that blow the tinny tone of a Z amp away, they might be great for the kiddies to practice in there rooms, but are no place for these Z amps on the band stand.

[twdiplrli]

@evanfrmheaven

Yeah, okay. I've been to your Youtube channel... sounds like typical sh##y bar music. If you put the GT next to your vintage crap, it would eat it for breakfast. Brad Paisley tours the world with Zs, so you can keep your amazing tube amp tone.

[evanfrmheaven]

@twdiplrli The "z" amp might as well be a box of hair, next to any one of my real amps, sorry.

[52appaZ]

@evanfrmheaven gimme a break, Ive heard you play........please

[evanfrmheaven]

@52appaZ what have you heard me play?.......please

[Uz2Brockstar]

Sounds nice....wish we could hear more clean stuff though, IMO thats where the cream rises to the top....

[Xandrixen]

Recommend me a Z model for playin Heavy/ power metal, i play these 2 styles a lot, sometimes hard rock and rock'n'roll.

[JIMMYJIBLETS]

@Xandrixen

none dude. These amps are not in any way suited for metal. These are country-blues-rock-hard rock amps. Have a look at ENGL or Diezel if you are interested in an amp for metal. IMO they are just as high quality as Dr. Z except they are very high gain metal amps.

[Xandrixen]

Thanks. I was at Stratovarius concert and i saw that they use ENGL :-)

[tamasoops]

your lookin at it. either this or the galaxy, i play some pretty heavy stuff...system of a down...rage against the machine, stuff like that. it gets the job done.

[rsl84416]

two knobs... awesome.

[BlueBarrier782]

What Dr. Z would you say has the warmest or most bell like clean sound?

[mattlittler89]

If you are looking for a Blackface sort of tone give the Galaxie a try.

[hodowncorexxx]

These are the best sounding amps.

[SJP444]

what cabinet are you using?

[drzamps]

Z Best 2x12 closed back.

[KevinSaale]

This is the best all around amp I've ever played. So responsive. If I hadn't already had my one kidney robbed in hong kong I'd sell a kidney to get one.

[firebird116]

GODLY!

[Twistchawa]

That EJ Strat was a great match with that amp. . . Great tones all around though, for sure

[BillyBogartShow]

very thick like a milkshake...I'd wonder what a Les Paul with some p-90's might sound like going through this amp . I bet it would sparkle.

[RoflCopterAce]

That tone with the LP sounds like it'd be good for some Zep.

[wagatabuchunga1]

for sure..or ZZ top

[dbikeguy]

that amp is so freakin responsive haha its amazing

[zappyzebu]

That's the amp I need. Looks like an Eric Johnson Strat they're using, sounds great to me. The les Paul and tele are really cool too.

[dbikeguy]

it is an eric johnson lol, who knew they could be so great for blues

[mattlittler89]

it's a strat. of course it's good for blues

[pyromancj1]

Lol. Thats my guitar teacher.

[conarym9]

cab?

[t3r080]

Probably Z's own cab. I put my money on "Z Best 2x12 closed back" or similar.

I would love to hear MAZ-18 or this Mazerati GT thru Mojotone 2x12" cab equipped with TonyTubby speakers.

[meinshnake]

its a Z Best 2x12 Cab with the Mic on a Celestion H30... says so in the credits... mmm les paul with seymour duncan antiquities...

[puakaastro]

im gonna throw all my distortion pedals away and buy this!! man, that tone will kill my neighbor's little puppies, im sorry in advance Mrs. Wong.

[LemonInYourEye]

lol

[guitardaze]

What cabinet are you running it through and what mic did you have on the grill?

[marcelmsl]

This is the best "Z" amp, strat rules

[jensenbell]

I couldn't live any kinda musician's life without my Z Mazerati. The tone knob is so musical. Turn it down cut highs while boosting sweet lows. Turn it up... cut lows while boosting highs and upper mids. It's something only someone with an ear, taste and knowledge could design.

[Raty99]

I wish i had a hand to change my tone on my amp as i play!Luvly sounds.Keep up the great work.

[meandmia]

wow... what a great sounding amp.

[katarzis27]

What a pure thick sound... love it!

[blahman178]

sounds great!

[lessamuelson]

sounds expecially great with that Les Paul

[hodowncorexxx]

I really really really like this.
