My Z28 MKII arrived today. It took my about 2 minutes to realize it’s a keeper. Still digging into it, but first impressions have blown me away. It fits in nicely with the rest of the fam… ibb.co/z2sZPq2ibb.co/DY7Mb4F

Congrats, but I’m a little puzzled by something. I thought the heads were only available in black? And since I see a couple of Les Paul’s on the wall, I want a full report of how it sounds with HUMBUCKERS, since this is something I don’t hear.

Ha! I pulled a fast one on ya there. I saved the red cab from my old Maz for just this occasion. The Z28 came to me in a blackout cab. I’ll definitely be testing it with the Les Pauls over the next few days. The Goldtop you see on the wall is my #1. It actually has Lindy Fralin’s Humbucker-sized P90’s in it. The Honeyburst LP has Frailin Modern PAF’s. I’ll report back here after I run it through the arsenal. Congrats, but I’m a little puzzled by something.

Now that I’ve had a little more time with the Z28, I wanted to report on my experience thus far.
My first Z was a Maz 38 reverb 2x10 combo. That amp changed my tone and my playing forever. The Maz has always been the Doc’s “Swiss Army” amp for me. It can do almost anything. Im finding that the Z28 MK2 does most of what the Max did for me, but just suits my personal tastes even better than the Maz. I didn’t think that was possible. This amp is such a natural extension of me in my playing. The feel is just perfect. It feels just as good with both Tele’s and Les Pauls. The simple control panel layout makes it so fast and easy to dial in, I don’t waste any time fiddling with knobs.
This is now my #1 amp. I just finished building my new pedalboard with stereo capabilities. Im going to try the Z28 and Stangray or Z Lux in stereo. I’m thinking it’ll pair up well.
Thanks again Doc. You’ve really outdone yourself this time.
