Since I'm without a bass gig, I bought a guitar amp!

[Oldtoe]

It's time to do something I always meant to do: learn the guitar properly. Been playing bass for about 20 years now.

I have a Dr. Z MAZ-18 Jr. 1x12 non-reverb combo on the way with a T.C. Electronic Nova Delay. Should be fun with my two wonderful Silhouettes! One of my bass playing buddies (that I made into a Bongo convert) has asked me to learn a few tunes for a soft-rock combo. I'm going to jump right in.

Cheers!

Dr Z Maz 18NR? 112 combo? Good choice. Very versatile, good tones and plenny of volume.

cheers always, eh

Very cool Ben, nice choice in gear. Good luck in your new direction.

 

[robelinda2]

WOW, I would love to have a Dr Z one day.

 

[Big Poppa]

Very nice

 

[Sweat]

WOW Ben, nice amp you have coming, if your going to do it,do it right and you did indeed sir, congrats, cant wait to hear some stuff

 

[Spudmurphy]

Nice choice Ben - get an AL to go through it and it'll be a match made in heaven!!!

 

[Oldtoe]

I will admit to impure thoughts of a Sterling Silver MM90 AL lately.

 

[Shadowbox]

Nice. How are you liking it so far?

 

[Oldtoe]

It has yet to arrive.

Now the UPS website says my "package has experienced an exception."

That sounds...exceptional.

 

[Oldtoe]

The exception is now gone, and the amp is back on its way to me.

But in how many pieces, dare I ask.

 

[mbgreene]

Rather than a combo you may be getting it as a head + cab

But either way, a Dr. Z is still a great score

 

[phatduckk]

that's dope Ben.

Ive always wanted a Dr Z. Those amps kick ass

 

[Dizzy]

Great news - rock those Sil'os !

I will admit to impure thoughts of Sterling lately.

Errrm, some things are best kept a secret Ben .......

 

[Oldtoe]

Well, THAT'S no secret, Dizz.

 

[Sweat]

Well Ben pics of such said amp????????

Man, you don't mess around when choosing an amp. Very nice choice, Ben.

Are you sure you want to take up the incredibly difficult task of learning how to play the guitar. Your brain has really been messed up playing the four stringers for all these years, ya know.

Could you please type slower? I can't read that fast.


No pics yet. The amp doesn't arrive until Thursday according to the UPS overlord.

nicely done Ben, if you play guitar as good as you do the Bongo lookout!

 

[Sweat]

Ben any update on the amp yet, just curious what you think.
