Ok...Most of you know I'm crazy...about Z amps, that is! But I sold my original Z Wreck set 2 weeks ago, now I just ordered a Blonde Z Wreck head. ;D Once you get a taste of the mighty Z Wreck....one just can't live without it!! I spoke with Jake at humbuckermusic.com/ yesterday and he got me all fixed up. I really can't say enough good things about these guys. Besides being the #1 Dr Z dealer....in the WORLD, they are the most efficient, friendliest, knowledgeable music store I've ever dealt with. Hats off to Jake and his men! 6-7 week clock now counting down...arg...the Dr Z wait. You'd think we'd get used to it. Painful, it is....lol... OK....you can laugh...or quit laughing now.

Haha I was perusing the Z-Wreck part of the forum yesterday and saw that you'd gotten rid of your Wreck, at which point my jaw hit the floor. As much as I shouldn't say this, I think my next investment is going to be a (completely un-necessary and unjustifiable) Wreck. Congrats on the second coming!

I'm guessing we have 6-7 weeks until your "should I drive down to Humbucker music or wait to have it delivered" post, eh? ;D ;D ;D

I think you'd be a happy man! A Z Wreck would sound awesome in the SteamPunk outfit as well~ I'm guessing we have 6-7 weeks until your "should I drive down to Humbucker music or wait to have it delivered" post, eh? ;D ;D ;D lol...you just might Dan. If it arrives at Humbucker on a Friday and I have Sat. & Sunday off work....I'll probably take another trip down. ... However...it's only a one day USP ride. So if it comes in the middle of the week, I'll get it the next day..

I've had mine since Jan and I finally started using it a couple months ago and haven't touched another amp. I have really come to appreciate the Wreck.

Congrats Mark. If I could have gotten a red one with a red flame maple faceplate when I first asked, I likely wouldn't have bought the silver set.
However, in the end, I love the silver set and the 'bang for the buck; price of the head and cab set.

Congrats Mark! Admit it - you just could NOT bond with that silver color (lol). What cab will you run it through?

Thanks guys...I'm looking forward to it and think I have my bases just about covered for ANY situation! lol Kirk...I never really liked silver amps, but the original Z Wreck set is so classy and beautiful. In the end, you may be correct. I liked to use it with my 4-10 cab or one or two 1-12 cab's and the quantum silver looked too "high end" sitting on the blonde/brown cab/cab's.

Don't even kid yourself...get that order placed for the blonde/brown open-back 212 with alnicos right now ;D You know it's inevitable Keith

Outstanding!! Seems to me you were a little unsure when you let the first one go. I was wondering how long before you we're going to order the Blonde head, it will look great with the rest of your gear, matching and all. Congrats! I know the wait nearly killed me, so hopefully you more patience. ;D

Glad you're still lovin' your 'Wreck. I sold my original for a few reasons, but have a new head coming that will match all my other Z amps and cabs. Can't wait to get that magical Z Wreck sound back in my arsenal. Nothing else can get those tones! You must be getting close now, eh? Keith Just got word from Jake that my Z Wreck will ship from the mothership this week. I hope to be snuggling with it next week!
