This thing keeps impressing me!
It sounds great live, on stage, no matter what I throw at it. It's lightweight and easy to carry It has 3 knobs that are easy to dial in. (My live settings tend to be Vol around 10 o'clock, Tone at 10 o'clock and Master at 10-12 o'clock .) Every gig I have a choice of a DB4, Z-Wreck (the big boy), Zlux or the Jetta. The Jetta keeps winning the "take ME to the gig" slot. I got it for small gigs but it's become my main amp. I'm a Tele player 95% of the time. I have played the Jetta live with my Hamer Monocao III with P90's and it sounded killer. I play country, old and new, and classic rock and some other stuff. If you're looking for a versatile gigging amp that loves pedals, is easy to dial in, and easy to CARRY... Take a hard look at the Jetta.
This is the video that sold me on the amp...

I think the Jetta is the best value available today in the non-mass produced amp market. I have a Cure, which also is a great value, but there's something about the Jetta -- maybe the 30 Z watts -- that tips the scale in its favor.

Totally agree! I run mind vol 3 o’clock, tone 2-3 o’clock and master as needed. I use vol and tone on the guitar to give me what I need, and this amp does it!

I really like the tone of the Jetta and the Les Paul in the video, especially on the neck pup. (but I am partial to humbuckers anyway)

I think Chris does some of the best demos out there. Sure he is a really solid player, but unlike some that just string lead lines together, Chris gives you a full sense of whatever they are high lighting with different styles of music, lead, chords. He’s sold me on a lot of gear over the years. Glad they carry Dr Z, I know when Chris is playing a Z your going to get a great sense for what it might do for you.

I LOVE this amp! It's the perfect Tele amp. At least for me. I'm thinking hard about selling my Wreck and DB4 because this has replaced them as my main amp. I'm not using either of them or my Z-Lux. The funny thing is, I bought it for small stage shows. Now I'm using it on big stage shows. Actually, I'm using it for every show.
It does look small on big stages. Am I crazy for considering buying the head too?

I LOVE this amp! Am I crazy for considering buying the head too? Silly question to be asking this group of enablers… I’d say your mind is made up and you’re looking for some validation. You really need the head. A variety of cabs to suit the venues. It’s all good! Life can be short, live while you’re here. ME |

Well, I feel compelled to jump in here. Maybe a sickness, but when I find something I REALLY like, I usually wind up with several (sometimes identical). Take for example the Z-Lux, I have the head and the combo. Same with the Maz-8 and the Z-Verb (at least they're all different colors...). My rationale is usually something like "if one gets destroyed in a alien invasion, I'll still have one". Or, "I like it so much I'll surely wear one of them out".
