That amp sounds amazing. Great demo. I’ve got a Z-Lux and have loved it since day 1. Best amp I’ve ever owned and I’ve had a lot of classic Fenders and Marshall’s. This will probably be the next Z for me.
I saw this video when it first came out. Then I watched it again and again and again. Then I ordered the amp and it arrived last week. I Love it! Thanks for the Demo, job well done!
Great sounding amp! Love the vibe....making my Tweed Deluxe nervous 😬 As always, Dr Z amps have an amazing clarity. this amp has fantastic sag, and that master volume kills it! Loved both guitars in it, but the Tele...wow
Couldn't have said it better on the entire Dr Z ethos, amp, quality, price (great tone!) from amps that are simple to navigate. Like reverend guitars, VVT amps, fulltone, etc....their latest is usually their best. ...the Palir gtr sounds fantastic btw!
I think Humbucker and Sweetwater and all the other DR. Z dealers just got a lot of orders for the Nova. This was a great demo of the amp. I am sure this is the next Dr. Z amp for me!
Fantastic demo and tone. Really difficult to find 1-channel amps with master and gain range that smoothly goes from clean to scream. For the tone I love, most amp’s clean channels are too clean, and the OD channel is too dirty, even at lowest gain. Really cool amp!
Hey Lance, great video thank you I have a question for you now that you’ve had an opportunity to play both the nova and the Z master, which of the two do you prefer? How about the z/28-2? Thx!! Zach
man, i know it's a 4 year old vid, but i'd love to see the signal chain on this thing? the sound is superb, such that i credit the production in addition to the amp. what gives? how'd you process it? what'd you do in post? did you pan the ambiance off to the right side?
To all the complaints about the price, these are for both "blues lawyers" with more money than sense, but also working musicians who need to cart these things around every day and night. Try that with a PCB based Peavey, Fender, whatever. It won't last very long. Hand wiring takes a lot more time and labor in the USA, as opposed to Chinese-made, mass-produced, cheaply made amp. Buy what you want.
Very Nice amp but $2,300.00 bucks is very pricey The speaker in it is $150 There are just so many great amps on the market now for way under a grand that sound just as good. Just my 2 cents. But for those that want to dish out the bucks, more power to you! Rock on!
if you have played a dr. z and seen the design layout I doubt you would question that. This is an all out custom amp thats has been meticulously designed. it's not designed with budget in mind, rather tone. cheers.
@Dave Merlin. There are so many factors that go into determining cost of an amp. The speaker being $150 is moot. An amp is the sum of all it's parts, put together in a way specifically conceived by the builder. Have you played a Z? I don't even mean sitting in a store, but on a loud stage with a full band? They punch. More than that, they are tanks, and good doc himself will stand behind his products. These are professional pieces, built for people who play for money.
