"Tone, tone, tone, tone. Is there a substitute?" --Dr. Z

DrZ's philosophy is simple: Hand build a top quality original product, designed to last a lifetime, which becomes an extension of the players personality and sound. DrZ builds professional quality amps; whether you're a touring professional or you never leave the house with your rig, you get the same quality amp.

"...Throw out all the tonal intangibles, and I think there's one reason for my success: I try to make every amp I build the best one I've ever built." --Dr. Z

Dr. Z Amps are built with "Z-Attitude":
* The belief that "Made in U.S.A." should mean "only the best;"
*They know "Close Enough" isn't and you should
*Compromise Nothing if it hurts the tone.

The Z Best 2x12 closed back cab utilizes a Theile Ported design which allows users to dial in the full frequency range of the guitar. Low end is determined by the port thickness, Mid response by the shelf depth, and Top end by choice of speakers. Placed vertically, the Z Best delivers a tuned focused sound, yet has the airy qualities associated with open back cabs. When placed horizontally, you pick a bit more low end as the port is then coupled with the floor. This is a long throw cabinet that will get the sound to the back of the room.

ABOUT THE DRZ AIR BRAKE

The Z Air Brake has two major applications - stage or studio/home use.

For stage use, the Z Air Brake is a useful tool to limit your overall dB level at any time during a performance. Example: the beginning of the night (when the club isn't full) click the Air Brake to a level of attenuation to allow for smooth tone at a lower volume level. As the night progresses, reach back and remove degrees of attenuation until the desired level is reached. This will allow you to manage your amp's overall volume without varying from your amp's favorite settings.

In the studio or at home, the Air Brake is useful for lower volume while still allowing for full output tube distortion. The Air Brake has a "bedroom" level control that, when selected, will allow for fine adjustment and maximum attenuation down to 1 watt (with amps less than 100 watts.)
