Tonewise, which Z amp is the Z-Plus most like? Would it be more like a Maz 8, or a Cure perhaps? Maybe a Z-Lux on half power? Or is it it's own beast? I'm trying to resist buying one, I love the sound from the clips. Maybe I should be saving for a limited edition 30th Anniversary Mazerati...But I want to hear from my brothers that own both amps they're comparing.

I'm going to have to say a combination of the Z Lux and the Therapy. I've never plugged into a Maz 8, but the Z Plus is nothing like the Maz 8's older siblings...
I think everyone knows how much I love the Therapy, but I sold mine once the Z Plus showed up. That's how good it is.

Hey Dave - why don't you drop by and test it yourself? It really is its own beast but you can definitely hear the Z family heritage there.

Mike, that's a great offer and I'll take you up on it. It's going to be a few weeks though, I'm trying to get used to living life without my wife. It's surreal to think that a year ago she was so vital, healthy and full of life, and now she's gone to heaven. Sometimes life just sucks and then it sucks some more. But enough of all that. I'm coming back, and I'm resolving to be a better player and man in every way, in her memory. Music is so therapeutic. Not to mention all of the great friends and support I have here at Z-Talk. You guys (and what, 2 gals? ) are the best. We'll get together after the snow melts but before Z-Fest for sure. I just made my reservations yesterday and I'm really looking forward to it! It's going to be a great time. Thanks Brother. You exemplify what this place is all about; friends helping friends get better at music and life. We'll get together soon.

I'm going to have to say a combination of the Z Lux and the Therapy. Agree. When the Z+ is cranked up it's gainy side definitely reminds me of the Therapy. At cleaner settings it can sound very similar to my JAZ (original version Z Lux). And of course it can ride the line between them. So it is it's own beast, but does IMO remind me VERY much of the best parts of both those amps, and very little like the MAZ Jr's I've had (relying on memory, it's been several years since i had a MAZ) I have the studio combo w/ Creamback. It's fabulous.
