Updating an older version Maz 18jr NR.... is it worth it? Getting the EQ bypass, the detachable cord.
Any thoughts?

Oh and it seems, after reading around, that it's not the only mods!!!

Do it. It makes a great amp legendary. The Master Volume alone made my Brake Lite obsolete as far as my Maz 18NR was concerned. It now resides in my Z-Wreck combo and works very well there. I can't recommend it highly enough.

My 18NR is going back this week for the update. Can’t wait to see the difference!

I sent mine in this week, they got it yesterday. I had already upgraded the tubes to the recommended ones and it made a big difference. Cant wait to try the new master volume.

Send an email to Don at customer service requesting the update and he will send you an RA number for shipping and a sheet to fill out about what you want to have done to the amp.

Not only do they make great amps, but their customer service is the best ever! If you have a question , you will have an answer within 24 hours and if you have a serious issue, you will get a call from Don himself.

You’ll need an RA number in order to get it shipped. You might want to try calling the shop. I sent mine in yesterday for the update after talking to Don over the phone. I know they’re busy, plus Doc might have all hands on deck building Novas 😎. A Nova for you, a Nova for me...

Still haven't received any answers from the Z factory... I think I'll give them a call.

Just checked and nothing is there, I'll make another request.

You should get an almost immediate automatic response, then usually hear back from repair directly within 24-48 hours.
