Well fella's, I grabbed a MAZ Jr NR 2x12 combo with blues a few weeks back, since getting it I have about worn out the speaker screws and tube sockets.
The best speaker combination I have found is one Weber Alnico Blue Dog 30 watter and one well worn oldie V30, this is not your average V30 mind you as I have owned several and this one is unique for what ever reason. All stock tubes are back in with the exception of the rec, it is a NOS from Mike, one of the mismarked $24 ones. it is a great tube as I have tried it in several amps. If you don't think the rec make a difference grab one of these.
I loaned this amp to Dan Weller last Thursday for several reasons,
1. A Z brother needed an amp to save him from a DRRI left for him,
2. I've been struggling with this amp and wanted another pickers take on it.
Here's Dan playing Jr with Johnny Lee of Urban Cowboy fame;
Well Dano enjoyed the amp and trust me Dan has some serious chops, it sounded awesome from the crowd and his settings were just a tad different than mine. I left the amp set as Dano set it and gigged it myself Friday and Sat.
I want to add that for the first time I shared the stage with another Z player, Keith Davis, a killer Tele player and was crankin' an older MAZ Sr 2x10, smokin' tone, check Keith out @

Sorry no pics, I forgot the camera for both of my shows
Anyway, looks like Jr's a keeper as I got a great response from nearly every musician I encountered this weekend, some have heard me before, some have not. One other picker we've played several shows with simply said,
"you sounded great tonight, sounded like a Tele should"..
My drummer whom I've been in a few bands with told me I've never sounded better and that I was the best guitar player he's ever played with.....poor fella need's to get out more
'nuf said, time to order a road case.
