Dr. Z Route 66 chassis


By barrymclark , May 15, in Amplification and Effects. Not that I could afford one I just played a very good sim of one I was played with enough intensity to sweat! He loves those tubes, sometimes when he plays Reeling in the Years by Steely Dan sounds exactly like Elliott Randall on the 70's Marshall Studio amps that Clapton made famous. Chuck at RetroKing is really a cool guy too and makes the amp custom outfitted with all of the vintage tubes, caps, etc.

You could always come by in Atlanta to hear it. DR Z amps are great amps. However, from what I've read on the Dr Z owner's website, it's hard to find good KT66 tubes these days. That's a real shame. Sorta the problem plaguing tube amps these days. Some tubes are just getting tougher and tougher to find of decent quality. The RetroKing sounds very nice too. Very different that the Route 66 though. The Route 66 just has IT for me tone wise. The breakup is JUST right. The tone stack is JUST right.

I mean I don't care how it is built: tube, solid state or digital. So long as it sounds good. Certainly makes it less appealing to get one for sure if the amp might be rendered obsolete by the tube being tough to replace with regards to quality. That's ok though, there was no immediate danger of me purchasing one. I was looking a year out though of maybe getting one.

The good news is I am not hard on tubes. I don't play out really so I wouldn't be tearing through tubes left and right. Single Channel Blues Breaker head, has tube buffered fx loop and bypassable master volume. It's not getting enough use. I have a couple pairs of Brit KT66's, but to be absolutely true to the historical circuit the correct tube is for a JTM The bluesbreaker thang happened later when EC ran kt66's in his.

I prefer the sound of the amp with 's. Have a pair of vintage Tung Sol's very tightly matched. I know that you're not in the market for a spendy amp, but it needs to be played, it is an amazing amp to play out through. Maybe somebody can give it a home, it's a virtuoso performer's amp at home for smaller room bass, jazzbox, rhythm and lead electric guitar with a great, singing, tone for electric guitar, and I have used it for acoustic with good results as well.

I appreciate it. As mentioned, though, I am in no danger of being able to afford one. I am not even in danger of affording much of anything at the moment to be honest. Just stunned by how that amp sounded. It is like the guy who designed it could read my thoughts without me being able to truly articulate what I was looking for.

I checked the website, very cool amps! Did you get his at a dealer in Atlanta? Would love to hear one. Sounds good don't it! I had heard of RetroKings but, like the Dr Z, never even heard a video demo of one. Who knows, maybe the Monza will be on tap after the Route 66 and Z-Best cab. Since I have pretty well settled into the notion that I am not going to be playing for anyone's pleasure but my own, I want to have nice stuff even if it takes me forever.

I have my software models which will serve me just fine but I've been a Dr. The Route 66 has intrigued me since day one, but I also realize it would be impractical for me as to get that tone the thing has got to be turned up and it's gonna be LOUD!

It's an added plus that the Dr. I've yet to try the Z28 - the other Dr. Z amp that really intrigues me, but there will always be a Carmen Ghia in my collection.

So simple and so good sounding. I had a Carmen Ghia for a while. Like GaM mentions And lordy, those 18w get LOUD!! I've spent way too much time up there playing every Z thats come out.

The good Dr know hows to wire an amp. And the cabs are massive strong - very much like the Mesa cabs: thick and heavy. I never did get along that well with the Carmen G. Traded it straight across for my current amp set up. But plenty of the country guys in KC are using the Jrs, etc.

Nice stuff. I figured I'd have to get a power soak. You'd really be rattling windows with that thing! With the oldies stuff, I may not need to drive it too much. Either way, I may end up near half on the volume dial. Power soak.

Very cool. I dig the RetroKing 45 too for the Bluesbreaker thing. Funny you mention that- i have the SG and H's. Should be here by end of this upcoming week. I didn't think to tell you as I assumed you'd be back into completing the Starlite instead of buying another amp If I hadn't come across this amp, that is exactly what I'd be doing.

Know vs unknown quantity. That is still on my list though. Z Route Prev 1 2 Next Page 1 of 2. Recommended Posts.

The Route 66 is an all original Dr. Z design based on the incredible KT tube originally built by Genelex. This is not a duplicate of the Marshall JTM, but completely original spin with new tonal end results. The Route 66 has an EF front-end. For those not familiar with this tube, it is a 9 pin pentode that offers incredible gain and input dynamics. It is normally used in high-end stereos, most often for its accurate transfer of input signal, balance, and headroom. The Route 66 features a deceptively simple tone stack, consisting of Volume, Bass, and Treble, which feeds a non-negative feedback Phase Inverter, for true harmonic content and full output tube dynamics.
