If you've ever found yourself in the ongoing battle to control your amp's volume - negotiating with sound engineers, club owners, and studio recording folks - then the DR Z Amplification MAZ 8 is your ultimate solution. At a humble 8 watts, the MAZ 8 doesn't scream for attention, but it sure packs a punch. This amp offers a remarkable tonal range, from shimmering cleans to full-blown rock, all at reasonable volume levels.
Under the hood, the MAZ 8 boasts a power output of 8 watts, driven by a single EL84 output tube, accompanied by a robust preamp featuring 4x 12AX7 and 1x 12AU7 tubes, along with a 5AR4 rectifier. What sets this amp apart is its ability to deliver an authentic class A experience. You have the choice to operate the single EL84 output section in Pentode or Triode mode. In Pentode mode, you'll revel in the signature MAZ 18 chimey top end and rich low end, but at a significantly more manageable volume. This mode offers ample dynamic range, catering to everything from clean country picking to gritty riff rock. For those seeking even more, the footswitchable EQ bypass function provides a gain boost for searing leads with seemingly endless sustain. Switching to triode mode, the MAZ 8 takes on a vintage character. The volume steps back, while the tone fattens up, transporting you back to the golden era of 1950s tone. Engaging the EQ bypass in triode mode invites you to slide into bluesy realms effortlessly.
The front panel of the MAZ 8 is a straightforward control hub, featuring Volume, Treble, Middle, Bass, Reverb, Master, and the versatile cut control, which acts as a tone knob for the output section. On the back panel, you'll find a 4, 8, and 16-ohm speaker out, an effects loop, and EQ bypass, all standard. Additionally, the back panel hosts the indispensable pentode/triode switch, allowing you to tailor your tone precisely to your liking.
