This is a demo of my DR. Z Maz 38 played too quietly. LOL. (This amp has Dr.Z's mod #1, for those who know his mods from the forum.)
I'm using the cleanest and most distorted sounds, albeit at "bedroom" volume levels.
You'll hear a mid 90s 335 with Fralin Unbuckers, with coil taps.
The sound quality is poor due to the video mic. I'll try to update with a properly miked amp.

Here's an arrangement I just did of the prelude for steel string. I got most of the notes right, so up it goes.....
