If I only had to have one Z (God forbid) It would have to be the Z-Master! I can get every tone (with a pedal or two) that I would ever need! Those of you that haven't experienced a Z-Master owe it to your self! Enough said!

1 Z, what a dreadful thought! But if it had to be, yes a Zmaster would be a fine choice. I just got a new Sola Sound Tone Bender MKII, been playing it the last few days with the Zmaster, just great!

Mine would most likely be the Z-28. I've never played a Z-Master but my favorite tweed amp of all the ones I've owned or played was an early production Vicky 35310 Bandmaster. I'm sure I would like the Z-Master.

I'm sure I would like the Z-Master. Had them both and sold them both and now have the Z-28 back. Its my only Z but I do have to say the Z-Master was awesome too. If you can play on a big stage where the amp is directly behind you and you have some room the Z- Master is unbeatable.

I have a Z master and Wreck Jr Combo that i just got. I think what you say about the Z master is so spot on. It has a great clean thing going on, you can pedal it up so well, then when you want that classic tweed thing…. Whoop there it is. The notes are so round and you can get this epic shimmer thing clean that carries over when cranked…
I’m sure i will grow to love the Tasmanian devil ( the Wreck jr) I have liked it in spurts but haven't found my sound with it 100% yet. It’s an interesting amp that’s for sure

Looking at it another way, if 4 of the 5 were stolen, I'd be happy with whichever was left.

ZLux just over EMS. Mainly because if it is one, the reverb and trem would give me two effects.

Oh damn, Spent some serious time last night with the CAZ-45 after the same amount of time with the Z-Master.......I think I have to change this thread to "If you could only have two Z's" I'm thinking there is a life time of exploring all of the tones in both of these amps? In a very loving way "damn you Doc".....

I hear you on the 2, or not being able to pick 1. They all sound great, and you can get lost for hours in any of them. There's something to why people own many Z's, or they sell one and buy another Z.
I've had the CAZ going at times and just spend hours playing with different guitars through it. More recently, the Ghia, and I do the exact same thing, but those 2 amps couldn't be more 180 degrees different from one another.

I can't help to wonder what you and your bandmates could do with you playing each of those amps. I think it's really cool to hear your amps cranked with a band mixed in.

I will say this again the Dr-Z Z Master, is (if I had to) live with only one amp worthy of this universe it's the Z-Master!

I remember the good ol’ days when a lot of guys, if asked to pick two, would go with a Maz Jr. and a Ghia.
But time marches on, and by definition it seems the latest is always the most exciting and greatest. Thankfully so for the Doc.
As for me, I tend to be stuck in the good ol’ days and I don’t especially want out. Oh I’ve tried a few times but I keep coming back to what has always worked and is familiar.
Pretty boring, huh?

I have owned 2 of them and let them both go because too much volume for what I do but, with the master as only Z can do I have one on order as soon as they are available! Best amp in my humble opion that the Doc ever made!
