    Great demo, and excellent explanation, you really describe the amp with words just as well as you did with the sound samples!

    I have had mine about a year. Traded out of a Deluxe reverb and could not be happier! From bedroom level to giging levels. From country to AC/DC to Zeppelin just gets it done. Takes pedal so well. As far as my needs this amp is a 10 !

    Wicked swiss army knife amp that loves pedals. I had the reverb version, 2x12 Combo, so quite a hefty boi. Traded it in towards a Z Wreck , but nothing but good to say about the Maz 18

    Nice video man. I’ve got the Mk2 NR head as well. You did a great job explaining the way it is both super articulate with great detail in the notes but when on the edge of breakup also full with harmonic information at the same time. You probably noticed how well it cleans up and retains clarity when you roll back on volume knob a bit. Killer amp

    Sweet setup, they are so versatile......rock, blues, country, bedroom to stage all covered with one amp.

    Sounds great. There's a google doc that compiled user settings; amazing how many ways the amp can be EQed. Lately I've been using "vintage tweed": Vol, Treble, Mids, Bass all maxed. Cut and Master lowish. I use low input with a BP-1W clean boost.

    Had a 2x10 Maz 18 for many years when I was gigging. Perfect amp. I miss it but I rarely play with drummers now so it became a little too loud for me.

    Is it manageable as a home amp, or do you need to use some sort of attenuator?

    • @schecterc1h
      @schecterc1h  Місяць тому +2

      Definitely manageable. The amp sounds good with the master volume set to bedroom levels. Of course things really sound amazing when you get those power amp tubes cooking though. I don’t know what your home situation is but your neighbors will definitely hear it at those higher levels, but it won’t be anything to complain about during the normal hours of the day.
