Dr. Z AMA: Head or Combo? (JETTA Head / Z Wreck Jr. News?)
You crazy genius. Love you Dr. Z.
All Z ampa must be renowned for clarity
Have you ever thought of bringing back the mini z or a 1 watt combo for the bedroom?
I bought a Carmen Guia second hand but the cabinet has the Z missing how can I get one?
How best to power on/off your tube amps? Is it better to leave power on and turn into standby for upwards of a hour or so, or power on and off fully between breaks?
turn it off for extended periods
I've had #004 for a few years now and it's an absolute beast. I was buying and selling amps every few months until this came along. I A/B'd a couple Z 1x12 cabs after buying the head and the G12H kicked the Greenback's ass.
great to hear you found the amp you were looking for. A Z Wreck Jr. with an H30 in a closed back 1x12 definitely sounds monsterous!
Awesome guitar player! Lance kinda sounds like Joe Walsh too. haha
My next amp!
question. i love a particular speaker after having a collection of 300 searched in the garbages and tested them all trying to find REALISM. this particular super good speaker is alone. i want to buy its twin brother to do the stereo. but on internet the closest i see is one almost identical but is 2 ohms instead of the 6 ohms of the one i have. what happens? will one side sound half the volume? . my amplifier is lenco a600 (austria 1978) and i plan to use this for the midi piano for virtual instruments. i am not sure if purchuasing because it's not a perfect match. and ithe shipping is quite pricey. thank you.
it depends on the impedance of your power amp. does it have multiple taps?
@@DrZAmplification as you could check out at google images, this amplifier doesn't say anything about impedances. it does have 2 pairs of outputs so it can feed speakers: left 1, right 1, and or speaker right 2 speaker left 2. since the speaker i own is 6 ohms, and the one i am buying on ebay is 2 ohms, which in theory will sound 3 times louder and ask 3 times more energy from the amplifier, then maybe i could feed that speaker from both outputs at same time, then in theory the shared load might be like a conversion to 4 ohms, hence avoiding the dangerous overheat of just one side of the stereo. it's the closest speaker i could find on the internet, not a perfect match, but apparently identical, except for the ohms.
Dr Z. @11:34 you say ‘divide by 0.7’. Should this be multiply by 0.7?
correct
Another great video. As a fellow Engineer I clearly hear the passion and training come through in the quality of instruction and detail. Some of, if not the best explanations on amplifiers anywhere! Thank you Sir! The Z-Best sounded spectacular!
Leo Fender was a Sax player and self-taught. Americans like you are what make America amazing. Keep that Greatest Generation mentality and desire to take feedback and improve your designs going. Example for others to follow!
Headphones in blown away. Can anyone hear the difference in pots? Underrated choice in amps.
Thanks
Hi Dr. Z! I recently obtained a Carmen Ghia 112 beige and it’s so amazing. It’s an older model, no send/return or master. Has a G12H. Wondering what dirt pedal you recommend that pairs well with the amp? At band practice i cannot turn it past 9 or else i get the stink eye from my mates lol. Thank you for any advice.
According to the date near the extra fuses, it’s fromm 2004. Are they the same weight as the more recent models 40lbs?
Very informative and clear. Thanks so much.
Barium building up is only in super high power (10,000 watt and more) transmitter tubes, not a 100 watt guitar amp.
Thank you, Dr. Z.
Being in Cleveland you should work on an amp with Lebron James!
I don't think he plays! Guitar that is!
I remembered when BP said in his Sweetwater interview with Mitch Gallagher that the DB4 would be renamed. I'm finally happy to see that prediction by Brad (hopefully) come to fruition with this new X-Ray! Can't wait to hear what it has to offer!
though...it's not quite the same thing... more a of a crossover between the Stang Ray and DB4.
Love Your Amps. Thank You. 🫡
Sounds awesome Lance I bought one of those pedals and it didn't sound good through my amps I'm thinking about selling it but I might get a Z28 instead.
I’m floored. Great tone! I’m gonna have to save up for it
You should think of yourself as the Leo Fender of the Boutique Guitar Amp world! Keep the great amos coming Doc.
I'm very close to pulling the trigger on a combo. Likely going to swap out the Celestion in there for a Fane F-70, and see how it sounds....or errrr...hear how it sounds!-
I retreat here and to a handful of other guitar guru channels when I need an escape from the news and social media. I’m gradually just not going to those other places and it makes me happier. Listening to the Doc talk about amps always puts a smile on my face, and then I just want to turn on my Dr. Z amp and make music. Thank you, Doc.
Little too much amp for me but I love my JAZ and it gets lots of love!
That collection is intense. I could try out those different amps all day.
The normal channel of the AC30 is the best sound in the world. Love seeing this kind of modern version of that amp getting in the hands of new players.
How amazing is that the owner took time to do this. Killer. Congrats Sir!
No kidding they could charge more. Add some leather handles and maybe to the other aesthetics and the cache increase.
Hello very informative video, ty I have a 1970 VW beetle Motorola radio can I connect a 4 ohm's speaker as I have one around? Also will be facible to connect 2 4 ohm's speakers on serial instead of parallel? Thanks for your help
So, in all honesty…I own a perform with 2 Dr Z amps. Indoor smaller venues, Carmen Ghia combo w/ Creamback and outside, large events, Therapy Head w/ Dr Z 1x12” cab. Celestion Gold. My question is can you really tell, LIVE, the difference between any of these amps? Make no mistake, I love them, but other than a very High Fidelity sound, there pretty much the same. Live, that is…not beadroom application.
if anything you can hear more a difference the louder they are than quieter... the nuance comes out at playing volumes... and also something that is often overlooked is the player's experience and feel. A great painter can make a masterpiece with a brush designed to cover a barn, or a fine horse-hair brush, but which do you think they feel they can express themselves with more articulately? I'd invite you to come to the shop some time and play a variety of our amps. I can guarantee you will have a preference between say a Z Wreck vs a Z-28.
@@DrZAmplification Great answer! And since I live a little more than an hour away, I might take you up on the invite!
Can you rewire a stang ray or an RXES from the ef86 to the 5879? Only because these ef86 are so microphonic.
You can purchase conversion sockets at go from EF86 to 5789 pinouts, find them on ebay.
@@DrZAmplification I can only find ef86 to 6sj7 conversions.
That boy can sure pick that geetar
Love my Boss Katana where I have an acoustic guitar setting. Yes a Dr Z man-cave amp that can switch to an acoustic guitar setting....Wow... There has got to be way more man- cave guitar players than players that play out. So a low watt Dr Z with an acoustic side plus reverb because acoustic players live reverb. Please Doc...make this amp!
The older amps were designed to run on 110 volts . That is why I use a Varied with my 2 museum quality Gibson EH125s, and my Noble Victor from the 50s .
VARIAC !
output trannies,path to discharge. use your wrist before pulling it out.
is there anything harmful with using a variac instead? so much cheaper.
only by the fact that you can turn up too high and you have to be careful not to. a variac is also generally heavier
I have a Fane F-70 speaker...Any opinion on how that might sound in a Maz series combo??
haven't tried! I bet it would be good though.
@@DrZAmplification I always read about the usual Fender, Vox, Marshall comparisons.....Wonder if that might add a touch of the Hiwatt vibe.....
Just got one today! My first Dr Z. Love it!
thanks for joining the family
Sounds great Carl - clean ,clean, clean !!!! Tone hunter !!
Just seeing this ! Amazing As Always Mike Miss you guys❤
👍👍👍👍👍❤️🎸
Nice!! Alright Butch!!👍👍👍🎸🎶
Sounds ACE! What speaker do you use? Breakup/saturation sounds amazing with the Humbuckers…not brittle at all. Has that Super Fender, Dumble thing going for it? Always like the Z amps, never played through a Z-lux.
It would be the stock Z12 in the combo.
Great playing and demo, thanks Carl..
The Z-Lux is a game changer for any one including Z fans who haven't played one. Its so 3D, it's insane!
Just stumbled on this site and new subscriber here! But, I've been playing through Maz 18 Jrs for years!!❤
Fantastic playing Carl, loving the tone your getting from your Dr. Z.
