Dr. Z Maz 38 Senior

Introduction

I have an awesome new guitar. And I will post about the instrument soon. I also have a new rig. I am a very happy guitarist.

Dr. Z Maz 38 Senior Reverb

I went to Lauzon Music in Ottawa and I picked up a Dr. Z Maz 38 Senior Reverb head. The head is a special tenth anniversary edition and features a special plate on the top of the head.

  • Rectifier: GZ34 (1)

Dr. Z  1×12 Speaker Cabinet

The speaker cabinet features a classic floating baffle design with a Celestion Vintage 30 12″ speaker. The speaker cabinet has a removable rear panel which allows closed back or open back operation.

  • Dimensions: 19 1/2″ H, 22 3/4″ W, 10 1/4″ D
  • Weight: 38 lbs

Summary

I’m still in shock. I spent over six hours playing this rig today. The tone of this amp is the best that I have ever heard. It did not take long to find the sweet spot and the amp and the guitar came alive. It was electric.

The Maz 38 is a very loud amp so an attenuator is highly recommended if you want to play at softer volume levels.

    Hi Richard. I was lucky enough to try one of these amps out recently. Although I didn’t get to crank it up, it was exceptionally clear and articulate.

    I have a 2005 Gretsch Firebird with Filtertron pickups – I bought it because I’m trying get Malcolm Young’s tone from AC/DC. Do you find that you can get anything near some of these tones?
