My first Z was a 2x10 Ghia in red....I loved mine with two Eminence Legends 10516. Welcome into the forum.

Isn't the current Z 10" speaker a custom voiced Eminence Legend?

Well I know Eminence makes them but I'm not sure what they based it on...I think I used to know but I don't now.

I was thinking the same...I am pretty sure one of the Eminence guys said that to me when I asked at NAMM a few years back.

That's a steal then, considering the Ramrod is $70.

I'm so in love with mine. I have a 1x12 and hope to add a 1x10 to run a wet/dry rig. Congrats!

stephen: I could use one of those variable foot switches too. Please let me know if you have any information on where they might be available. Thanks Nov 12, 2024 18:42:32 GMT -7

paulted: Just picked up a Maz 18 2 x 10 and loving it. Can’t seem to find a variable boost footswitch anywhere, does anybody know where I can purchase one? Nov 12, 2024 3:22:37 GMT -7

tooloud: Back to this place with the new 'name' and the one lovely Carmen Ghia 2011. Last time I was here as '6stings' and with Z28 and Monza, that must be like 10 years ago
