DR Z has gotten a firm hold on the small combo amps that are very class A like in their apporach. They have such a great classic rock tone and what they are all about it pure tone. They have a solid tone and many artists are using them on their records and live touring stages. These amps prides themselves on being somewhat versatile but more user friendly tone machines. These amps are great for just about any style of music other than metal.
This amp is very popular with the country players. It has a great tone for guys you like to chick pick and get that chimy clean moderately broken up overdrive sound. This amp has the 12 inch Celestion Alnico Blue's speaker which is a $239 upcharge but gets a better sound and concentrated tone. It is more Vox like with these speakers than the H30 or the Red Fangs. A more blooming tone and a lot more 3D in is drive.

SOUNDS
This amp is a lot more dynamic in tone and full of sound through these speakers. It is a well worth it up grade for this amp. This amp really shines with the Celestion Blues. The H30's are great speakers but with the voicing of this amp it needs those alnico speakers to really blossom the tone. Their amps aren't a hole lot of power but have a brilliance of volume and girth that make them very authentic. The tone of this amp is pretty good. It has a nice blend of the power tubes and preamp valves. This is an amp that will take pedals very well. It has a nice effects loop to allow its user to insert delays and chorus sound into the effects loop and still keep the same preamp tone. For not being a whole lot of power these amps still packs a big punch in volume and tone.
These amps have a familiar control knob called "cut" which is a lot like the cut knob in the Vox amps. This allows you to dial in some of that class grind. The "cut" knob may be the most useful and versatile tone shaping tool on any guitar amp. Throughout its range, it produces a large variety of sounds to satisfy players using all guitars for most every style of music. The "cut" knob is best used after the EQ is all set; turn it up for extra edge, turn it down for a more vintage sound.
OVERALL OPINION
At new these amps come in right at around $1889. That is a great price for an amp that sound this good. You have the $239 up charge for these speakers but it is well worth the price. It is a very usable gigging amp and will treat its owner quite well. I would recommend this amp to anyone who used to like the way a Vox AC30 sounded before they started making everything in China. This is going to appeal to those type of players and also the guys who like Fender but need a little bit more drive in the tone.
