Californiaman Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 This is the Dr. Z Route 66. What are your opinions of it's thick and creamy, milkshake tonal characteristics?

Thundergod Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 Those Dr.Z amps are great, I had the oportunity to try one once (no dealer here so they are imposible to find), not that particular model but one that looked like an improved AC30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Bill Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 You all go ahead and laugh' date=' but this has happened to me several time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHO Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 I'm sure it's a killer amp. But, I dunno if it is youtube screwing things up or if it's the way the sound was recorded, but listen to how some pick sounds and notes just make the volume jump right up just to get sucked back down again. That's compression, folks, and with that much of it, the speaker in my Sony mobile phone would sound "fat and creamy" if I somehow could hook up my guitar to it.

RichCI Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 No idea if it's any good going by those videos. It sounded good for single note lines and noodling and most any amp can handle that but, IMO, the real test is how well an amp holds up when playing rhythm parts with chords. Not trying to sound cranky, but it annoys the hell out of me when I hear web demos of gear and there's no damned rhythm playing and just noodling. How many guitar players play nothing but leads?

Mr. Natural Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 I really GASsing for a Mini Z. The Route 66 sounds cool, but is really more than I need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guitargreg1993 Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 that sounds like a great amp!! but i will never buy one.... dr. z amps are wayy too expensive and IMO you can get an amp that sounds just as good for a lot less.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
