Fourth year in a row, we're proud to say Mass St. Music was named one the Top 10 Dr. Z Amps dealers - we just love these amps! We own them, we play them and we're proud to be able to offer Dr. Z amps to you.
There really isn't much that we can say about the good Doctor's amps that would mean half as much as plugging into one, even for a minute. Utilizing unique, simple designs that are reminiscent of classic vintage amps without copying them, Dr. Z's philosophy is simple: create an amp that sounds good at all volume levels, with all types of guitars, in the studio, in the bedroom, and on stage that actually create a synergy with the player. From his smaller essential innovations like the Brake Lite Attenuator to the killer Monza amp to the meat and potatoes MAZ combos, Route 66 and Remedy Head, Z is outstanding. Every Dr. Z design we have tried is dripping with tone and soul. Crank up a Prescription head and listen as the distortion tones "dance and swirl" around every note. Or plug a hollowbody into a Dr. Z Carmen Ghia combo and hear Class A warmth and clarity at its finest. Build quality is top notch, Z's personal attention to service is outstanding, and the price is surprisingly affordable. Z builds only a few hundred amps a year, so availability is limited. To top it off, there are many cool cosmetic options to choose from with Dr. Z Amps, especially the hard wood front option and colored tolex!

This Dr. Z Maz 8 210 Combo Amp gives you that great Maz 18 tone at a reduced wattage. This has 4 12AX7s and a 12AT7 preamp so you can run the gamut from the great cleans to full on rock at 8 watts without sacrificing tone. The single EL84 output section can be run in Pentode or Triode mode giving you real versatility. Pentode gives you the sonic signature of the Maz 18 with the chimey top end and sweet low end bloom all there, but at a significantly lower volume. Plenty of dynamic range for clean country picking to grinding riff rock bliss. You can even take it a step beyond with the footswitchable EQ bypass function for a great gain boost on effortless leads that will sustain for days.
The Maz 8 takes on a much different dialect in Triode mode with more of a vintage feel and sound - the volume level drops back and the tone fattens up making you think you plugged into a lost gem from the 1950s. Kicking on the EQ bypass in Triode mode will have you reaching for your slide. The back panel features a 4, 8, and 16 ohm speaker out. An effects loop and EQ bypass are standard, and the footswitch is included. Check out this Dr. Z video to experience all that this 8 can do. This Dr. Z Maz 8 210 Combo Amp is one of the best amps we've seen this year.

The Good Dr. strikes again - just receive this Dr. Z EZG-50 Head. In the doc's own words, this is "My spin on the blackface reverb head that never was". This has a very definitive 6L6 clean sound, and whether you want a classic 'El Mocambo' tone, or a twang straight from Bakersfield, the EZG-50 will not disappoint. With a new 6L6 output transformer designed for Z Amps by Ken Fischer, this amp employs a very unique impedance not used by other American makers, and this difference is one of the key factors to the EZG-50s splendid sound. Also, NOS Allen Bradley carbon comp resistors are used in all critical tone positions of the EZG-50 circuit. These classic resistors lend a one-of-a-kind depth and warmth to this amp's tone.
The EZG-50 features a stunning, 2-knob all tube reverb. Capture a subtle echo at the back end of the note, to full-on surf using the Dwell and Mix controls. Further dial-in your sound with Treble, Mid, and Bass controls, as well as Pre and Post Master Volume knobs. 16, 8, and 4 ohm speaker outs accommodate any cabinet. With 2 knob reverb, a tube rectifier, and 50 Watts of clean power, this Dr. Z EZG-50 Head is the blackface head that never was - and one of our favorites from the Doc.
