For me l wait a ARACOM PRX 150 DAG attenuator for my Dr ZWRECK. I have the Brakelite-Z Brake and the Aracom. The only real difference is the level of attenuation in the Aracom. However a Z-Brake can be adjusted for more attenuation. Since I own the Aracom I'll keep it. However being able to Tweak the Z Brake somewhat eliminates the need for the Aracom. I am not a Bedroom setting User. To my ears it's to muddy..No matter what unit you own.

go for it....i couldn't afford one when i lived in newfoundland...so now that i'm in oil country...i said shag it..i'm havin one...lol you only live once, right? I've always lived for the moment....lol all i know is that the z wreck is the amp for me...it may not be for everyone.....once i plug in , i just can't stop playing...i've never had a amp like that before...its just tone heaven... decide whats best for you...thers a ton of amps out there just as good or better than the z wreck...its all a matter a preference and what you want out of an amp. yeah I think I'm gonna take the plunge and order one up! After all I have a 30 day return option with L&M. Just wondering - for low volumes could I use an overdrive pedal as a temporary solution (till I get the attenuator?) Has anyone tried that? How does it sound? I know it is far from ideal tonally but would get me thru a few months until I can order the Attenuator. Thoughts people? J5 I would only put a bit of overdrive on this amp...to me it doesn;t except pedals as good a my maz 38...it likes delays though...but like everyone is saying, "this is a guitar to amp sort of thing", it sounds best that way...I add a bit of delay, reverb for room ambiance..thats all. do what yah gotta do to get thru a couple of months..it will be worth it...I hope it will be for you too. jason

Some nay-sayers are bugging me about my wanting a Z-Wreck. I have never owned a Z before, as a matter of fact they can only be bought where I live "by order only."So I have never PLAYED thru one. I based my decision soley on Youtube video, like I have with other amp purchases in the past. So my question is ..... would you recommend a Z Wreck as my first Dr Z purchase? All opinions welcome! J5 now what do you have to say to those, "nay -sayers"...lol you made an awesome first "z" amp choice buddy....i've played thru the stingray, maz 18, maz 38, ghia, mini, prescription es, monza....and the Z WRECK comes out on top for just overall vibe. the other z's were great as well...but the z wreck strikes a note with me. lol you know what i'm talkin about...by the way what # amp did you get...mine is #85, just curious? cheers!

Hey Jason:
All the nay sayers have been silenced. My brother, who repaired electronics for a living for many years, thought it was an outrageous purchase, as he didn't believe the the higher grade components would make THAT much of a difference. He was convinced on the first chord I played when he walked in the room - you should have seen his face! He is a big fan of the amp now.
As for the number of my amp how do I figure that out? What digits of the serial number tells me that?
Cheers bud! J5
