I'm thinking of getting a tweed-like amp. Was looking at the usual suspects. But what Z more closely falls in this category?

Definitely the Z Master. Also, the Nova is tweed based.

The Therapy is supposed to be somewhat based on the Low Power Tweed Twin. It was a long time ago but I remember the first channel of the Galaxie being pretty tweed like. I have not played the Nova or the Z Master. The tweed era covered a pretty wide tonal range, depending on the model.

A Super Z if you can find one of the 11 or so that were made! Also, the Cure can do the tweed thing.

A freind of mine has a Super Z he's trying to sell. If you're interested, message me and I'll put you two in contact.

The Super Z was based on the MAZ architecture . I built it for Joe Walsh and his affection for the 3 X 10 Bandmaster design. At a later date I built the Z Master which is tweaked preproduction of the revered 3X10 Tweed Bandmaster , a reproduction right down to the original Triad Output Transformer, an amp which bares Joe's Signature. The Z Master and the NOVA are my tip of the hat to the amazing early Leo Fender Tweed designs. Z
