New for 2012 the Monza gets upgraded with a post phase inverter master volume and 16
ohm speaker out. It is now possible to get all the drive and grind the Monza is capable of at
very low volume levels. The addion of the master really lets you get the most from the amp.
Plus, when you turn the master all the way up it is completely out of the circuit. The Monza is
a gain and sustain monster. It excels at giving your fingers back what they put in with the feel
and response of an amp 5x its power. Chords ring strong while single notes rise and bloom.
It’s like harnessing the power and response of a 100 wa stack without clearing the first 20
rows.
The Monza features Volume, Drive,Tone, and Master controls. This isn’t your tradional
master volume set up. The volume controls the clean to dirt range while the drive adds more
sustain and depth as you turn it up. Notes just keep geng bigger and bigger. With Drive and
Volume at 12:00 you get a brilliant gain sound that is effortless to play. The Monza is very
touch sensive to pick dynamics and backing off the volume on your guitar for a great clean
sound. Turning the volume and drive up to higher levels will bring on an excellent fuzz face
type drive that will collapse and bloom with no need for pedals. To put it simply, you’ll have a
very broad range of gain sounds at your fingerps with just a guitar, amp, and cable. With the
master volume control you can have your sound in the bedroom, the studio, and the stage.
The Monza is available as a head, 1x10, 1x12, and 2x10 combo. The 1x10 features the Red
Fang alnico 10 made by Eminence. This is an awesome sounding combinaon in a very por-
table package.

1. Input: Input jack for your guitar.
2. Volume: Controls loudness of amp.
3. Drive: Adds gain, sustain, and depth. Use drive to control thickness.
4. Tone: Controls overall tone of the amp.
5. Master: Controls overall amp volume. Turning the master all the way up takes it completely out of the
circuit.
6. Stand-By: Leave in off posion for 1 minute when powering up the amp. Turn on for play. Place in off
posion for extended break periods.
7. Power: Switch up to turn on amplifier. Switch down to turn off amplifier.
8. Power Indicator: Lights up when power is switched on. If bulb fails replace with type T47.

9. AC Inlet: (Class I Wiring). This device is used for disconnecon from power mains and must remain
readily opearable. The power indicator light does not indicate connecon to power mains. The power
cord must be disconnected to disconnect amplifier from power mains.
10. Fuse: The fuse protects the amp from electrical faults. Replace only with the same rang and type
stated below fuse holder. If the amp repeatedly blows the fuse contact your dealer or Dr Z Amps.
11. 16 OHM Speaker Jack: Plug in 16 ohm speaker here. Always have a speaker plugged into the amp
when it is powered on. Always match the speaker impedance to the proper speaker out jack. This will
allow the amp to sound its best and avoid damage.
12. 8 OHM Speaker Jack: Plug in 8 ohm speaker here. Always have a speaker plugged into the amp
when it is powered on. Always match the speaker impedance to the proper speaker out jack. This will
allow the amp to sound its best and avoid damage.
13. 4 OHM Speaker Jack: Plug in 4 ohm speaker here. Always have a speaker plugged into the amp
when it is powered on. Always match the speaker impedance to the proper speaker out jack. This will
allow the amp to sound its best and avoid damage.
