Had the chance to get the Lux out of our rehearsal room and to the stage with everything miked. It inspires practice at home, and sounds great at rehearsal unmiked. The Lux delivered in spades!
We play country style covers, with a clean to edge-of breakup guitar sound. With two guitars, we're careful about tone and getting in each other's space. I can make it work with my Maz 18 and HRDX III, but it takes effort and I am often tweaking, which distracts from my playing (Lord knows I need to focus on that). I could immediately dial in the sound I wanted, and there was no compromise. Pick attack, the guitar volume knob, and a slight boost from the Wampler got me effortlessly from sweet to growl. Used primarily bridge and middle pickup positions on a Suhr classic pro T. Really nice to concentrate on playing rather than worrying about tone.
For me, the Z-Lux checks off all the boxes. Search over - any other amp I have is now a backup. Thanks to the Doc for coming up with this one - and thanks to the guys at Maken Music for hooking me up.

Sweet brother! It does make a difference when the sound feels just where it's supposed to be. Welcome to the forum.

I've been playing my Maz 8 at home and at rehearsal for the last couple of weeks, and yesterday I plugged into the Z-Lux...and it's just so much BIGGER. The tone is simply huge. It's an amazing amplifier, I love it.
