[blooperjohn]

crank it man

[dancohen615]

one of the things i love about Dr. Z amps is how they stay musical as you turn them up. they don't get all mushy and bassy. this one in particular.

"Sorry! Suckin' over here." i loved that.

good videos.

[blooperjohn]

should have tested with a custom shop, or Suhr

[brianendersmusic]

how would this sound with the analogman fuzzes in front of it

[jonreidcookingTV]

DR Z put all other ramps to shame

[NintendoSinceBirth1]

looks like a great blues amp!

[gman8thst]

Very good amp with pedals - I love mine!

[LarryRickenbacker]

Whenever I hear a clip of the Route 66, it sounds like "Steppin Out". Satisfied Carmen Ghia owner here. Dr. Z is the best thing since M&Ms!

[MrAries1966]

Own it ! Love it ! I play a '58 LP Jr through it and, nothing but sonic delight !!

Hey GMD, Kinda a random comment for ya, but I was curious. I never owned a dual speaker amplifier. I'm looking at the new Fender Mustang III and IV amps and which would I should go for. I don't play gigs(yet) but I want something that will be a good all-around amp and I don't know if the dual speakers will make a big difference for a single channel amp. I'm also 17 and NOT in possesion of alot of money so I was looking at the III and just buying the 4 button footswitch. Please respond. Thanks.

i never liked dr Z amps.. they are just too sterile for my taste

[brianendersmusic]

@OMERTA011 what amps do you prefer just curious. Never played z

[OMERTA011]

@brianendersmusic tone kings, musicmans, dumble amps, good ole fenders and some of the better copies..

peace

I have one of the first 66s and I must say its really hard to demo this amp. Its the most tube responsive amp on the planet. Right now mine is so dark that it needs a treble boost at live volumes. The only common factor I have seen between tube sets is the responsiveness - you can do a lot with just a boost and a volume knob no matter tubes are in.

Wattage is rated at 32, but its just plain loud. Way louder than my 45watt Mesa through the same cabinets. Not a practice amp.

next time play History of tenacious D plz :)

[gravano2]

Great tones , but damm i like reverb

[Helsling]

You should kick your wallet and spend 1k on a Fender Deluxe Power Stratocaster...

With the Piezo powered pickup. Sounds beautiful.

Bet it sound groovy coming from that Dr. Z

Hey found a ebay sale of this amp guitar emporium. Buy It Now price is about $600 less the retail and I'm pretty sure its GMD's sale.

[ravenslaves]

I've never played a DR. Z that I didn't love. It's one of the few amps out there that is truly worth the (larger) bucks. They smoke amps that cost twice as much.

[danakerman]

After watching the SG demo and then this one, one thing is instantly obvious: this amp LOVES single coils and was made for them. There's just a lot more going on tonally with single coils than with the humbuckers. You really can't get a more spot-on "American rock" sound than a Fender through an amp named the Route 66.

[saosinic00]

not a fan of the treble really, otherwise its a perfect amp.

[fendermac]

@saosinic00 ...So! Not perfect then?Lol

[whaiyun]

@saosinic00 i think dr z's are generally brighter than other amps. sounds good to me though. i like jangly.

[vermettegar]

What kind of power ?  15W-20W?

[Acronso]

[vermettegar]
