Well I found a Maz 18 in a consignment shop about an hour from me and immediately put it on layaway! It's a Maz 18 with black tolex, wheat/cane grill cloth and a matching Z Best cab. $1500 for the set...pricey, but I have to have it. I'm selling gear to get it (I can have the money, but I want to lesson the blow to my wallet). I've got about $600 from selling gear now...I've never been so determined to buy an amp in my entire life! I almost tried selling my 1970 Super Reverb to help fund the purchase, but I'm not ready to cut those apron strings yet You guys don't help any either with your amazing stories and pictures of your own Z's! Here's to joining the club in about a month

Amazing amp. You will not regret it. The only problem I have is test driving new guitars without a Z in the store. I've gotten spoiled.

Congrats on your Maz 18.. I just got my second one (blonde 2x10 reverb combo) after I parted with my 2x12 combo a year or so ago...
BTW I love the Black N wheat... My Maz SR Reverb head and Z-best cab is also black n wheat... is so if you don't like it and wanna use that super instead.... let me know... I'd take a Jr in Black n wheat....
did I mention I like Black N wheat... ;D
seriously though... is it reverb or Non reverb? and I'm asuming you were able to play it? if so what'd you think... and if it makes you feel any better thats NOT a bad price at all for that amp n cab...
Welcome to the club...
Jason

I did get to play it in the store...a lot ...I spent about 3 hours playing various guitars through it and then I brought mine in and played them through it and I had to tear myself away from it. It hurt me to have to leave it there in the store, but soon it will be here with me

Excellent Choice! Is the Cab a 2X12? I know what you mean about the wait being the hardest part. When I bought my Jr. head I had to use my Twin Reverb as a speaker cab for about a month before I got my Z-Best 2X12, what a long month!! The twin's speakers sounded good but the Z-Best kicks Butt You will not be disappointed with the purchase. [glow=limegreen,2,300]-J-[/glow]

Yeah, the cab is a 2x12. I have found that I can't use single speaker cabinets, they just don'tt move enough air for me, even at low volumes I prefer multi-speaker amps/cabs to single speaker ones. I can't wait, only about a month to go til it's here with me!
