Dr. Z Maz18 NR w/ Z-Best Cab Little Wing SRV Intro

Just brought home a Maz 18jr NR w/ Z-Best can. Ignore the weird colors the isight's camera did that. The top is a salt and pepper grill, the speaker cab is tan. Volume is very low at about bedroom level. Playing an Eric Johnson strat standard tuning. No reverb or any other effects used.

@sanders4617

this is true with every high quality amp in my opinion. Basically, if you don't need to improve your playing when you buy a new amp, it was never really an upgrade :p

Interesting how your camera reversed the image. Dr. Z is offering a "tone-stack bypass" mod for $150.00. Step on the footswitch and the signal bypasses the tone controls. Major increase in gain and earlier breakup. Suppose to get a very "tweed" type of tone. In 2010, it will be offered as an option on all new Maz 18&38's.

well... First remember that SRV was tuned down 1/2 tone to Eflat--makes a big difference in tension. Also, on the first 2 albums he played through Dumble amps--used a Marshall on the second album on the Hendrix tune.

What did you get instead?

True, but I don't know many people who can maintain more than 20 minutes of string bending with a set of .11's or 12's. I know of people who have had to go to an .08/.09 guage because of wrist issues. It isn't worth losing the ability to play.  Just my opinion, other ways to fatten tone. Ask Billy Gibbons about that. No offense by the way, I was just really impressed with this guys tone. Bet this amp miked through a nice PA sounds huge.
