Hey there Fellow Maz 8 lovers, I was looking for a great little amp for the new home and made the mistake of walking into Replay Guitar Exchange in Tampa. They are a Dr Z dealer and this beauty was just sitting there. They had a Blonde Studio as well but this redhead just caught my eye. That Z Wreck grill cloth and all that red tolex. Well she fell in love me, and I with her after plugging a few guitars into her. Needless to say she came home with me. I have since learned that I will need a brake lite so that is on its way along with a few pedals which I never needed before since my little Vox practice amp had modeling and my iPad has Bias effects. Now I am gassing for single coils to round out her sonic needs and a mic so I can record her growing up with me. I am looking forward to chatting and getting advice from this forum since this is my first all tube amp and I have been learning that they require a lot more attention than anything I have previously owned. Cheers, Brian Here she is waiting for for her paperwork. Here she is meeting her new best friend.

Welcome to the Forum Brian! There are a lot of good people and information here on the site. Great first amp for a tube amp - hard to beat Doc's amps! I have a couple, ahem, Zs and they are all great in their own way. (Take a look at a couple of my threads to see a sampling of amps in my man cave.)

Thanks on the Epi compliments. Its a really nice guitar to play and my current favorite. Gibson Mini Humbuckers seem to like the Maz 8 a lot. I picked it up for a steal from Amazon of all places on a holiday deal of the day special for about a 1/4 of the retail price. I always wanted a semi hollow body guitar and the ostentatious Rock n Roll look of this guitar just makes sweeter.

Welcome to the forum and congrats on the Maz 8!
Is that Epi a Supernova?

Welcome. Nice rig ! This forum makes having a DR.Z amp a lot better than just having a DR.Z amp. So much great info and good people ready to help out if you have a problem.
What speaker did you get ?

I wasn't a huge fan of the red combo when I saw it with the white knobs salt and pepper grill but blacked out with z-wreck cloth it looks mean af in the best possible ways! Congrats!

Hey Zed, not a supernova. From what I have read that is actually a Riviera in Sheraton clothing. Mine is the limited edition Union Jack Sheraton with Gibson mini humbuckers and frequonsator tail piece.
Dcarver, it has the h30 in it. I am plenty satisfied with it.
Markus, I totally agree. when I walked into the amp room I wanted it even before I played it.. I saw the amp and then saw it was a maz a8. afterwards it wasn't much of a choice.
