Bad MF! We had a "teacher" idol fundraiser at school last night in our auditorium. So me and a few other teachers put a little band together and played the VH version of ureallygotme. I had a les paul, Maz 38, z best and an mi-audio crunchbox. Any way, what an eye opening experience ;D This was the first time I had the opportunity to use the famous Buddy Whittington setting on my MAZ. Combined with the z best ( STOCK BTW) and the "crunchbox" my tone blew the roof off. It was like "hello"....................so this is what the z best is for.........and this is why I keep it stock. I guess my point is that you get so used to playing at home or in small clubs that you lose perspective on what these amps can really and just what they are MEANT ;D to do. I 'll end by saying I had EXACT ( but better) classic Brown VH marshall tone last night and it was A W E S O M E! Oh...........and all the 15-16 yr olds loved it as well. I am sure as soon as it shows up on youtube, that my teaching career will be over. The Maz 38 is such a majorly versatile amp.........and the crunchbox.............OMG.....$99. Fahgeddaboudid

So you guys didn't dare play "Hot For Teacher", eh? Guess that might have raised a few eyebrows!

We did consider it and...........then quickly unconsidered it Besides, I couldn't fake those licks and our drummer couldn't cop those chops.

I know what you mean. I have the same setup and mine rocks with my Heritage H535. Someone said these amps were just for single coil guitars but with a little bit of tweaking mine is sounding better all the time.

Aside from the Maz and the Z Best, which are no brainers, the MI Audio stuff really rocks, doesn't it? The Crunchbox is the best thing I've ever found for total over the top useful distortion (there are probably loads of chaos boxes out there that go waaaaaay past what the CB can do, but I'm talking generally USEFUL distortion). If you could only bring one box and what you had to play was mostly hard rock, THIS is the box. Uh... IMHO...
