Some of you know that recently my Quest For Tone led me to try out a Dr. Z Maz 18, and that I've been having a tough time "gelling" with it, despite what a truly lovely amp it is. Fellow forumite D/FW XJ'er suggested that, rather than fighting to get the amp to work with the type of setup I'm...
I had a chance a few short weeks ago to pick up a used Dr. Z Maz 18 Jr. NR head. Now, there was nothing wrong with the amps I had, but this was my first opportunity to "step up" to a "next level" kind of boutique-type amp. Just think of the e-prestige & internet cred, I (er) thought. I...
Can anybody tell me where I could find the original wiring specs for a Mirage I koa top? I've been messing with the volume circuit to see if I could get it to clean up better with rolling back the volume knob, but it's been frustrating, and I've about decided I need to go back to the stock...

Okay, so my pedal FINALLY showed up (I had to wait for the $$$ to "clear" through Paypal).
First, the good news:
1. It's a GORGEOUS pedal. It looks even better in person than the pix can convey. Just a lovely looking pedal.
2. It's RIDICULOUSLY tweakable. Three different compression...
Okay, so I've been messing around with my rig again, like y' do, and I decided to try running my Speed Twin just on the dirty channel as if it were a single channel amp with no extra bells & whistles type switching (no channel switching, no switchable master volumes, no fx loop switching in &...
It's very, VERY rough at this point, and the vocals are just a scratch track to get the idea of the tune across. Still got a lot of mix work & processing & mastering, etc., to do. Thus, comments & suggestions are needed & welcomed! Thanks!
