Incredible Amp

While this is supposed to be based on the Fender Deluxe Reverb, Fender never made a Deluxe Reverb that sounds this good. It has the top end shimmer of a Deluxe Reverb but also has a much more in depth tonal palette since the Z Lux has a mid control that the Deluxe lacks. The Z Lux also has a Master control that I mostly keep pegged because i like clean sounds but if you turn the read more volume up and then add the master, you can add in some creamy breakup and then you still have that included booster pedal - steroid crunch. The Reverb is the sweetest reverb I have ever heard and I once owned a 1964 Deluxe Reverb.Mounted vertically along the inside wall of the amp, it sounds like a separate $1000 reverb unit. The Tremelo also sounds great. This amp is made of premium components and engineered to last a lifetime. It even has a cooling fan for the output tubes. I asked the technical folks at Dr. Z what happens if the fan broke - they said first of all that is highly unlikely due to the quality of the fan and if it did stop working, it would not hurt the amp. (the fan noise is only barely perceptible in a perfectly quiet room). I've had this amp for just under two years and it just keeps sounding better.

...I have this bad boy. I've had for over a year. It's been on the road with me. It's seen many a mile. And, the tone never lets me down!! I have the Z-Lux head and Z-Best 2x12" cabinet. I also built me a 1x15" cab because i'm strange like that. It switches from 40w to 20w. And let me tell you, this thing can get LOUD!! I have the Z Air Brake for small indoor gigs. It is read more so very controllable. Need a little overdrive? Add a little pickup volume. Need more? Hit it hard. You need clean tone? It's right there. It responds so well to your picking. It really likes humbuckers. But, it chimes out well on singles too.TONE FOR DAYS!!! I'm a pedal junkie. My wife says i have a problem. But, with this beast, I have played so many gigs now not a single pedal. It's awesome! Don't get me wrong, it does take pedals well. Set it up for clean tones and use your feet. Set it up for some overdrive and hit with a booster and boom! Lots of control on the tone. Tremolo is very good. My only drawback on it is no tap tempo. But, that's not for this amp. So, no knock there.It is heavy. I purchased a good set of road cases to protect mine. It's too big of an investment not to add the hardware around it.
