If this thing is half as good as you all say I do believe I can use one of these. So I put my order in just a few minutes ago - Factory is likely already closed, so the order will be entered Monday first thing, but that's OK. Not like I don't have any Z amps around to play or anything... Have to admit though - a new Z amp is exciting times.

Steve congrats - You're gonna love it! I played mine this afternoon using a Metal Muff for the first time- just screamed! Sustained forever! (yea, I'm a closet headbanger but don't tell anyone! )

Congrats! You're going to love this amp. I just got back from a gig, and the Remedy was outstanding. This is my new go-to amp . . . no doubt about it.

It's so good it's pretty much changed my stlye. As some of you may know, I kinda like SRV/Trower/Knopfler/Jimi....and I've been playing Strats through amps like Super Reverbs, EZG-50, MAZ's, and KT45 forever. Since I got the Remedy, all I've been playing is humbuckers and Dickey Betts, ZZ Top, Clapton type licks...and have been playing more hours per week than I have in a long time. Curt was right. Desert island amp.

Steve,
Congrats on giving in!! LOL
As I've mentioned elsewhere, I played an old JMP 50 watt head side by side against my Remedy, thru the same cabs, and it's essentially a dead heat.
I think you're gonna love your Remedy. Too bad it's not green!!
;D

Steve, Congrats, I hope you have time to record & post some sound clips once you get the amp. Alot of us - me included - would like to hear more of the Remedy. Every time Z releases a new amp I find myself thinking "hmm, I really should buy this amp" .... and that's exactly what's happening with the Remedy ... except this time I really mean it!! kc

I've been struggling through some moving around in my studio - trying to make it serve triple duty for guitar/amp repair, music studio and photography studio and I'm having a devil of a time getting things done. Just losing the will to muck around with all the moving I guess... so I haven't done much recording lately. But if this amp is as good as everyone's saying, I prolly won't be able to stop myself.

How's about releasing that, pretty please? That's a very big compliment Steve, thank you. I'd love to release it this year. Just started a new job which is a bit intense at the moment but hopefully sometime mid year maybe. Off topic but I still hear some Stangray tones on that album, or should I say, I think a stang would compliment some of the songs really well. But I really should print and press before buying another amp But I can look forward to some smokin' Bentop clips of the new Remedy! and sometime I'm going to have to get one!

You know he's gonna be useless for the family this weekend "Cancel all my appointments!!!! The wedding isn't that important. Can we move the funeral to next week" Hopefully the family won't be Red as well ;D. I'm sure it'll be a test of moderation. Enjoy it! You'll only help increase sales. "a" Steve

Oh yeah... thought I had a gig this weekend, but it's next, so I get a whole week with this amp before I gig it. Now if Friday would just roll around shortly... hope it gets here by then.

Note to Steve; Order dust cover for all other amps.
You won't need a week with the Remedy Steve, flip it on and play.
