Okay, I've been posting about jamming at my bass players house and setting up my cab in closet and all that . . . lol I picked up a 1x12 Z convertable cable and have been really digging how cool this amp sounds with a 12" speaker hooked up. I do like the 10" in the combo and use it often, especially since I can just grab and go with it but the 1x12 is just killer with this amp! Its not as dark sounding, and shows some very nice sparkly high end that I did not know this amp could do, not quite jangly like a tele and stangray but nice all the same, pleasant surprise actually, especially since I am a humbucker player. We've been doing some recording so as I get something presentable I'll post if up so you can hear it Todd

I hear you, Todd. Well, not literally, although with Monza sound might carry from MI to NY I swapped the Monza from a 1x10 into a head box and stuck a Z-28 in the 1x10. I like the '28 better with the Red Fang. I'm running the Monza through a 1x12 open-back with a big EV. Brilliant cleans with volume knob low -- still really loud. There seems to be more high-end bite and less of the "dark" Monza sound I was used to in the 1x10 set up. I have to stick a BL on the Monza and hear what it sounds like cranked up through that EV.

hmmm, a Z28 through the Red Fang would be pretty cool to hear . . . I am sure pushing the Monza through a EV would liven up that speaker. EV's have always sound stiff to me, almost too clean. Patty has a cab with 2 EV 10's in it . . . that would be interesting to check out the next time she leaves the house! Todd ps. congrats on winning the Christmas Contest!!

I run mine through a 112 veteran 30 or a 112 K100 and it sounds great through both. I think too many try to pair it up with only certain speakers and this amp can thrive in other box's too. I really like mine running into my 412 loaded with GB's. Put the volume at 2:30 and the gain at 11am and it grinds like an 800...jus not Marshally. Its a Z grind. I ain't kidd'n!
