Make’n Music is happy to have this used Maz 8 Studio 1×12 combo for sale at a great price! It’s just back on consignment from a regular customer. Immaculate condition- no significant signs of use or abuse. Just a well cared for, boutique tube guitar amplifier. Like all our used / vintage gear it has been tested for functionality and priced to move. Sold as-is. What you see is what you get.

The Maz 8 Studio 1×12 combo is the newest MAZ offering from Dr Z Amps and it features the same chime and jangle that it’s bigger brothers- The Maz 18 Junior and Maz 38 Senior amps are known for. But with only 8 watts of power, the Maz 8 is the most “sound-guy friendly” amp in the Maz lineup. Loaded with a single EL84 power tube, this little amp can still pack a punch. The output section is switchable from pentode to triode giving you glassy and dynamic tones in pentode mode and a more vintage and fatter tone. The Celestion G12H speaker really adds to the overall tone of the amp. Foot-switchable tone stack bypass gives you a little punch for soloing. The Maz 8 Studio combo delivers rich singing tones from single coil pickups and sweet British crunch from humbuckers. It’s rockin’, classic tube amplifier tone has an old school attitude that comes alive under your fingers. Dial in tones ranging from clean chime to raw vintage drive!

Originally designed as a “grab-and-go” studio and small club amp, the Maz 8 has made its way to some of the largest stages in the country. Even with only 8 watts, the Maz 8 is not “weak and flabby”. In fact, the Maz 8 will amaze you with its definition and headroom, all the way down to the low E… If that’s what you are going for… but cranked tone at manageable volume levels and portability is what the Maz 8 1×12 Studio combo was really designed to offer. On its own, the Maz 8 is a great choice for smaller stages, recording sessions or practice. Got a larger venue? Just mic the Maz 8 up and play away, because big amp tone and soul is all there. Of course you can certainly use one of its big brothers- the Maz 18 Jr or Maz 38 Sr for this as well. They have the same great tone with more power.

The Maz 8 Studio 1×12 combo from Dr. Z Amps is a boutique tube guitar amplifier that every Strat or Tele player will love- But it’s not just for single coil players. Humbuckers are right at home with the Maz 8 too. You get great drive sounds at higher volumes or the ability to use the Lo input for cleaner, classic Jazz-style humbucking tone. With a master volume and full EQ there is plenty of room for dialing in your desired tone. 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.

The Dr Z Maz 18 has the perfect combination of front end drive and output tube distortion. It has a wonderful 3D reverb clean tone, matched with the sweetest top end response and tightest bottom end in a lower powered amp.

The front panel features Volume, Treble, Middle, Bass, Reverb, Master, and the ever versatile Cut control. Think of the Cut as a tone knob for the output tubes. The back panel features a 4,8, and 16 ohm speaker outputs. An Effects Loop and foot switchable EQ bypass function is also standard. The foot switchable EQ bypass basically works as a stellar lead boost which effectively makes the Maz 8 Studio 1×12 combo into a 2 channel amp. A single EL84 power tube provides the heart of this amplifier, while three 12AX7 preamp tubes voice the front end and a 12AT7 for Reverb. A GZ34 rectifier tube is also standard. With 8 watts of pure, boutique tube amp tone at your fingertips, the Maz 8 Studio 1×12 combo delivers the perfect blend of front end grind and output tube sustain.
