Enough portentous solo scenes in swimming pools, please. It begins with a woman diving into a swimming pool and doing a few quiet lengths, which, unfortunately, is exactly how recent seasons of Industry and The Fall began, to name just two that come to mind. There’s so much colour and energy and hormones on screen that it makes you (okay, me) feel superannuated just watching it. It stars young actors, it’s about young people being youthful and it’s chock full of heightened characters and antics. Z replaced Paisley's destroyed amps, and added the Z Wreck model (whose heart is a Fischer-designed output transformer) to its regular line-up in 2014, Guitar Player magazine listed it as one of their Editors' Picks.With so many ways to watch TV these days it’s rare to find a show that obviously belongs in a certain berth, but Wreck, a lurid thriller set on a cruise liner, couldn’t go anywhere other than BBC Three. After the 2010 Tennessee floods, which destroyed huge numbers of musical instruments owned by players of the Nashville music scene, Dr. Z collaborated with Ken Fischer of Trainwreck Circuits to build amps for Brad Paisley, who has been using them since 2006, but they were never taken into production, Ken Fischer having died that same year. The following year, a Guitar Player review of the SRZ-65 boosted the company's public profile in the boutique amplifier market.
Subsequently, he quit his job to focus on amps full-time. In 1994 Zaite received a call to build several more amps for Joe to use on the 1994 Eagles World Tour. In 1990, Zaite provided Joe Walsh with a SRZ-65 model amplifier. His first commercially made amplifier was the Carmen Ghia, an 18-watt amplifier with nothing but a volume and a tone control, 12AX pre-amp tubes, and two EL84 output tubes.
He sold a few hundred of those, and then re-engineered them so he could build them from scratch. His first amplifier was built on a reverb amplifier for a Hammond organ. As the son of a TV repair shop owner, Zaite learned the ropes at the age of thirteen when he began tinkering with amps and PAs. He played the drums, and started producing tube amplifiers in his Cleveland, Ohio, shop while maintaining his day job as a medical electronic technician at G.E. Zaite grew up the child of a television repairman and learned about vacuum tubes at an early age. The company was founded in 1988 by Mike Zaite, a.k.a. Z Amplification is an American manufacturer of boutique guitar amplifiers.
