This is amazing! I sold my Z-28 combo to mantra a few years ago and afterwards regretted that decision. I been looking for a 1/12 combo And found one used at guitar center last week. I was out of town this week Visiting family and the amp was delivered yesterday. My oldest son sent me pics yesterday of the amp and I was amazed at how close it resembled my older Z-28 that I sold so then I asked him what color is the jewel light and he says purple. Mine had a purple light! So I told him to send more pictures and the speaker in it was a made in England greenback which was also in my amp! I sold the original greenback and put a alnico cream in it when I first got it then Went back to the greenback and put the made in England one in it! So I got home today and checked it out and was 99 per cent sure it was my amp. So I messaged Manta and he said he sold it to a guy in Ohio! The amp shipped from Cincinnati Ohio! The Lord works in strange ways! I got my Z-28 back. You all know how hard they are to find now. I’m glad to hear the Doc is bringing it back too! Just wanted to share this amazing story it’s the first time I ever sold an amp and then it came back to me like this!

It's the purple jewel light. Purple jewel lights have mystical powers. Congrats on getting your amp back.

I know it has to be a good feeling getting back something like that!! I couldn’t believe it. It really blew my mind. What are the chances of that? All I could do was thank God for bringing it back to me.

Ok I must apologize I just found a photo I uploaded on another forum of my old Z-28 and it looks like the piping on it was brown and this one has white piping so I don't think it is the same amp I once had but hey it was a great story right? Im still stoked to have a Z-28 back again! I just wanted to come correct. I jumped the gun. Im going to re tube it and get it biased soon.

Z-28 is a phenomenal amp imho. Lotsa tone and plenty strong. Congratulations on reconnecting with a Z-28. Turn it up and have fun making some new musical memories. Awesome Cheers always Joel

I just took it to my amp guy this week to get it biased . I put all new tubes in it. I went with Dr. Z s recommendation. Can’t wait to get it back and test it out at church!
