I have just picked up mint condition used Dr Z Maz 18 Jr 1 x 12 combo c/w Tone Tubby and it is simply fantastic, I have always wanted a Dr Z but here in the UK they are pretty rare and this is the first used Maz 18 to come up on ebay in three years of patiently watching. Over here a new one with TTcosts around $3000.
Anyway ... as mentioned on here in other posts, it can be a bit harsh and ice-picky if you are in direct line with the speaker so having read the recommendation to fit beam blockers I tried to source some over here, but with no luck. So I had no choice but to cobble something. So I cut a 4.5 inch diameter cone from the bottom of a plastic tuperware dish and mounted it using two hacksaw blades and bingo, it works like a treat.
Now I am not advocating you do this instead of buying the real jobbies because I am sure they work better, but if you cannot get them in your country then you can do as I did - DIY
Being a newbie in here I am not sure how to post pic, but if anyone would tell me how I will post some pics of the DIY BBs.

Actually that's probably just as good as anything. My THD 4x12 just has plywood beam blockers, and they work great. See image: You just need that center blocked, one way or another. SRV used gray tape to do it....

That looks super-pro benttop.
Strangely enough I ve just had an email from Weber saying I can purchase them online direct. So I guess thats what I'll be a doing then.
