Get to know them!

No matter what you plug into it, the Dr. Z Z-Lux gives you the boutique-tinged sound of a handwired tube amp. And it's more versatile than you'd think. A Half/Full power switch takes the amp down from 40 watts to a studio-friendly 20, while a separate preamp Volume control makes dialing in your desired amount of grit easy. Sculpt your tone to perfection with a 3-band EQ, then bathe it in luscious tube-driven tremolo and spring reverb. You also get a footswitchable boost that's sure to send your solos into singing overdrive. From sparkling clean to down-n-dirty, the Z-Lux delivers the warm, vintage tone you've been searching for.

Loaded with premium, top-shelf components

The Z-Lux is loaded with premium, top-shelf components. A combination of hand-rolled Jupiter, Mallory 150s, and classic Orange Drop capacitors was selected for each stage. Four 6V6 power tubes produce a juicy, well-rounded tone and smooth, rich distortion. Experience deep, pulsating swells, thanks to a tube-driven tremolo, while you drench your playing in lush, tube-driven spring reverb. Guitarists at Sweetwater know that quality components give you great tone, and the Z-Lux delivers the goods!

With the Dr. Z Z-Lux, you'll never find yourself wanting for more features. Take the amp down from a stage-ready 40 watts to a studio-friendly 20 with a Half/Full power switch. Transform the Z-Lux into a snarling beast without cranking it to the max with a separate preamp gain control. Kick your solos into overdrive with a variable, footswitchable boost. You also get a 3-band EQ and Master Volume control, granting you complete command over your final sound.
