The Dr. Z Stang Ray is a single-channel 6V6-based amp delivering classic American clean tones with a sweet, musical breakup as it's pushed. Mike Zaite drew inspiration from vintage American amplifier design, creating an amp known for its warmth, sag, and harmonic complexity. It is particularly prized for clean-to-crunch playing dynamics at studio and small venue volumes.
