i noticed the heating up too after a couple of hours use. pero di pa naman ako umaabot sa amoy sunog na. i really dig my ZT amp too! it's loud enough for indoor gigs. maganda ang bato ng tunog, i just noticed thou that when cranked up, it's doesn't serve as a good onstage monitor.
We got 2 Club12s for the band and it is fvckin' loud!!! It sounds great for a solid state amp. Will post pics soon!
Uy! I like that also! Question, sir. does the back of the Club12's heat up also like the lunchbox?
Does it fart? Well because it has a small speaker. Thanks. I'm really interested in this amp. :)

yup. normal lang daw yun sabi ng customer support nila. ZTs daw can operate for 10 hrs straight w/o overheating.
ganda nitong ZT CLUB. May room type reverb, bass and treble eq tsaka gain. Yung gain niya hindi full on overdrive e. The more you crank the gain the more "tube sag" you get.
AND IT IS VERY LOUD!!! Maganda tapon ng tunog. Pag nag gig ka sa maliit na bar, volume 3 palang solb na. Pedal friendly din. Kung di ka pa solb dun, may effects loop siya. Ang maganda dito puwede mo i-expand yung capability ng amp. Bukod sa puwede mo siyang iconnect sa cabinet via the speaker out, puwede mo din ikabit sa ibang amp, speaker, PA o house system gamit yung headphone amp. May dedicated volume yung headphone (hindi katulad ng ibang amps na auto mute ang speakers pag nasa headphone out ka) at puwede pa naka on ang speaker habang naka saksak ka sa headphone out. Puwede mo gamitin pang monitor habang nakasaksak ka sa cabinet pag outdoor gig. Practical gigging amp talaga ito. Kasya dalawa sa trunk ng tsikots.
Problema ko lang dito, malaki yung siwang sa grille. Madali pasukin ng dumi at puwede mabutas yung driver. Puwede mo naman dikitan siguro ng DIY grille cloth sa harap niya.

very informative. its good to know about the heat issue. something to consider before buying the lunchbox...if customer support says its normal eh di ok lang, sagot naman nila yun pag nasira e.
la nga lang service center dito, sir. :-(
What can you say about the ZT amplifiers? I own a lunchbox & I use it as my main amp. It is really loud, sounds great & cuts through the mix. My only concern is the heat it generates at the back, parang plantsa ang init when you use it for a long time. I emailed ZT about this & they said it is normal & it will auto shut down naman pag sobrang init na talaga. The last time I used it nag amoy sunog siya pero hindi naman nag shut down. By the way when you use it without a dirt pedal/distortion it doesn't heat up that much. How about your lunchbox, do you experience this kind of problem also?
Parinig naman minsan. Text me pag nasa Petes ka!
I got myself a Club 12 lately, and immediately got rid of my classic 30 halfstack. :lol:
very loud, very usable at almost all situations, and the tone is quite "acceptable" for my taste (I have been a tube snob for almost 4 years now lol), it's the first SS amp i actually enjoyed using. I'd choose this over any tube amp with the same output just because it's so easy to lug around. :lol:
I play some old rock with it (Pink floyd etc.) and it does pretty well either with a Les Paul or a strat. I use it as a clean amp and use 2 Tube Drivers for gain, I also use a TC Electronics Nova Mod and Nova Delay with it and it sounds ok with these pedals. I'm not running them on the efx loop, nakakatamad mag route eh. :lol:
I have this gig on the 29th at Club Dredd and I will get to test the Club 12's capability of performing in a live setting. :-D
Congrats! Crankin up the Gain will make it sound more tube like. Have you tried the reverb? It's so sweet! Live? Dude, this is where it will shine. The sound opens up more when you go beyond bedroom volume. It's definitely unlike other SS amps that go thin and irritating once you get louder. It sounds fuller once you go past noon.
Enjoy. Ingat lang with the grills. The holes are too big. Dust and dirt gets in too easily.
I'm running at only 2 at volume or ill end up pissing off the neighbors. Akala ko dati kulang sa treble. Pero yun pala pag nilakasan mo doon lumalabas yung tunay na character niya.
I'm modding the grill. Ill post pics when Im done. Delikado ang operasyon e. LOL.

ano po mas maganda zt lunchbox or zt club
club is bigger.. 12 inches speaker.. compared sa lunchbox na 6.5 inches lang ang speaker..r_chino ano klaseng mga cab ang cheap pero maganda naman?
kung dadalhin mo sa gig at wala kang extension cabinet, the Club would be a good option.. pero similarly, pwede mo rin siya ihook up sa ibang cabinet na may mas maraming speaker, etc..
ang kagandahan naman ng lunchbox, mukhang sobrang potable siya.. ok for bedroom use.. pag large venues naman, basta may extension cab ka, oks ka na..
r_chino ano klaseng mga cab ang cheap pero maganda naman?
before you shop for a cab, test drive the lunch box first coz that's all you may need. if you need to be heard, get one of the vocal mics and put it on your amp.ay , di ko ma tetest drive eh , parang order na rin kung tawagin
Mass Defect, Bane and Mortal Fear showed that ZT Club 12 amps can kick the sh1t out of people's ears. Congrats guys!
ay , di ko ma tetest drive eh , parang order na rin kung tawagin
you far from manila? si turi at god of war meron silang stocks atadavao me
davao me
i see club12 na lng u :lol:may club 12 ba sa manila or sa davao?
Seriously, to be sure, Club12 na lang. Argh, I'm gassing for a lunchbox or club12. Parang sobrang convenient sa gigs at practices.
mahina po yung little giant... nakasubok na po ako
di po lulusot sa drummer kahit mahina yung pagpalo nung drummer
yung clean tone di ko alam kung sino masmaganda
pero dahil may lunchbox ako lunchbox na lang masmaganda tunog :roll:
hindi po master
'pogi' na lang po o kaya 'psst huy' :-D
lusot na lusot po sa drummer!
Hanapin nyo po Lunchbox dyan...
may club 12 ba sa manila or sa davao?
ano po mas maganda zt lunchbox or zt club
naka mic po para lumabas un sa malaking speakers
mismo bro, ang laking ginhawa sa mga tulad kong walang roadie. :lol:

IMO, mag Club ka na lang. Kahit hindi mic'd yung amp, it stands up really well to gigging conditions, as proven kagabi by 2 Club 12 amps in a metal gig. (For those that don't know, the drummers of Mass Defect, Mortal Fear and Bane hit hard.) Mike from Mortal Fear uses a 2x12 Line6 Spider IV 150 watt amp but Bhrian, who usually gets drowned out by Mike, was heard real clear and loud by everyone in the venue. Bolt Thrower already gave his feedback. As his roadie/tech, his volume on the Club was just on 3. By the 3rd song, we had to scale it back a notch because the drummer was already complaining that it was too loud.
I was at the ten02 bar last night. :-D, nuff said.
anyways here is out thread if anyone would be interested in ordering ZTs:
http://talk.philmusic.com/board/index.php/topic,184037.msg2574510.html#msg2574510
or email me at bryant@stonelakeguitars.com.
woohoo!!!! Bolt Thrower and Pao let us use their ZT Club nung sat. salamat ulit btw. anlakas!!!!! magkaiba kami ng ginawa ng kabanda ko, siya sa fx loop kumabit. ako, as daryl here recommended, plugged into the input. iirc, i set the gain at around 8:00, bass/treble 12:00, volume 2:00. para clean sound with lots of headroom yung makuha kong tunog. and here's the thing, yung v-twin ko, yung volume niya wala pa atang 9:00. gusto ko kasi masubukan yung lakas ng clean volume ng ZT. hehehe. sarap gamitin nung amps, hindi siya tunog practice amp na maliit.
you were there last sat? sayang we didn't get to meet.
may naisip nga ko next time magkasabay tayo sa gig. dalhin ko kaya yung amp ko. tignan natin kung ano mas malakas, 60W all tube or yung ZT. tingin ko yang ZT mas malakas. :lol:

how much louder is the Club 12 vs the Lunchbox? i find that the Loudbox's clean headroom is closer to a DR or C30 (22w-30w) than the 200w advertised. when it starts clipping, it just gets more distorted, not louder. i wonder what it actually is (sa totoong buhay) for the Club 12.
and where do you buy the Club 12 locally?
A Fender Tube amp is a very close comparison. But so is a Roland JC120 I think. Now, if ZT makes the loudest and smallest 2x12, that would really (over)kill! :evil:haha iniisip ko rin yun, Club Twin 2X12 dual channel with switching or para vintage vibe with trem din, champion! :-D
I heard that they are making a Club bass amp as well.
still no complains on my Club 12, arguably my overall best amp ever! and I have had quite a bunch of amps already(just for reference here they are)
-Fender Champion 110
-Fender Blues Jr.
-Fender Blues Deluxe
-Fender Dual Showman Reverb SF
-Fender Twin Reverb SF
-Fender Red Knob "The Twin"
-Carvin X100B
-Peavey Classic 30 and Classic 20
-Vox Night Train
-this small 5W Teisco Tube Amp
I may have forgotten a few but that's pretty much all of them.
the Club 12 wins because
-it's almost as loud as my previous 100W tube amps,
-sounds fairly good for my use, actually it can cover most genres if you use pedals (it reacts like a Fender tube amp in terms of pedal friendliness, it's like a clean canvas that you can paint whatever color you like, it isn't as bright as the fenders though)
-it doesn't break my back when I lug it around for gigs and jams (even much more portable than the night train head!)
-it didn't break my wallet that much
-it looks really road-worthy I still haven't experienced any problems with it.
this is really, REALLY a great amp for performing musicians who prefer to bring their own amps and don't have roadies and uses pedals instead of amp drive and other effects or modeling. :-D
thanks ZT and thanks to sir Bryant (stonelake) for giving me a chance to own one. :-D

now, that made me smile. under development na din pala ang bass amp. :-D
great review! it really had me thinking about this amp. :-Dif you have tried a Blues Jr. or a Peavey Classic 30, it is very similar to those. Contrary to what most people say, I thought the Club 12's clean sound is a bit dark, I then realized that when played at higher volumes (enough to be heard with a drummer) the treble really opens up. The Club 12 is single channel btw, and what's nice is when you crank up the gain, the tone remains the same unlike other amps where the top end gets more pronounced as the gain goes up. :-)
just a question: how is the clean tone? is it close to fender clean? i really value my clean tone and i don't rely on pedals for it (only delay and reverb). thanks in advance! :-)

btw guys, linawin ko lang, I didn't say the Club 12 is as loud as, say, a Fender Twin Reverb. Siyempre mas malakas na yung 100W tube amp, my point is it can get as loud as a 100W tube amp when used in a band setting, hindi toe to toe. :lol:

@maxi - i think the Lunchbox's clean is not that good. Meh, actually. it's too dull, sterile for my blues tastes (I"m a Fender guy). but for jazz or metal, i think it's alright.
thanks for the input sir Joric! i really want those Fender cleans as my platform for my pedals. i guess i have to try one out for myself. :-)chief, I suggest you try the Club 12 and crank the treble all the way up and the bass around 2 o'clock. that's how I use mine.

Is that the Club? it looks different from what have seen, Saan at Tagkano bili mo sir maxi?
nope! it's the Lunchbox Acoustic. bought it from turi. :-)via shipping?
@maxi- nice looking amp! good on you mate.
via shipping?
thanks! :-Dahhh , di mo na tinest ang item?
yup! :-)
ahhh , di mo na tinest ang item?
nope, no need. turi = deal with confidence.nice , ok :-)
nope, no need. turi = deal with confidence.
Now you gave me confidence to buy Club.through turi?
here's my short review of my ZT Lunchbox Acoustic.
finally got my ZT Lunchbox Acoustic amp today through turi (thanks man!).
AESTHETICS:
you really have to love ZT's job with the amp enclosure and the grille cloth. instant acoustic vibes. it has softer features compared to the Lunchbox or the Club, with the "woody" amp enclosure that even shows grains and the brown grille cloth covering the 6.5" speaker. it will really warm up any acoustic player just by looking at it. here are some pics:

(http://i443.photobucket.com/albums/qq152/maxi_musikero/PhilMusic%20Photos/Gear/DSC08764.jpg)
FEATURES:
i will just highlight the key features of this amp since they are available on the website anyway.
http://www.ztamplifiers.com/products/lunchbox_acoustic.html
this little amp is 200-watts with 2 channels, one for instrument and one for mic. each channel has dedicated controls for Gain, Bass, Treble and Reverb, and it also has a master Volume knob. instrument input is on top of the amp with unbalanced input. mic input is behind with options for balanced (XLR) or unbalanced input. it also has an effects loop which is perfect if you want to add some modulations. it also has a speaker input to allow the amp to be used with a much larger speaker cab for added power.
CONTROLS:
the controls are extremely interactive. the Gain and Master Volume knobs need to be tweaked to achieve the optimal tone you want. turn up the Gain too much and the acoustic tone will become a little fuzzy. the Bass and Treble knobs are enough to dial-in an appropriate EQ for the guitar. Reverb quality is very good as it adds just enough color to the acoustic tone.
(http://i443.photobucket.com/albums/qq152/maxi_musikero/PhilMusic%20Photos/Gear/DSC08759.jpg)
TONE:
here's the juicy part. the Lunchbox Acoustic's tone is very dependent on your basic guitar tone. if your guitar is naturally bright, then the amp will project a bright guitar. same is true with a more full-sounding guitar. but the Bass and Treble controls will definitely help even out the tone to fit your taste. contrary to the common belief that small amps lack low-end, this amp has a tight low-end and retains sparkly highs.
the Reverb is subtle and adds just enough ambiance so that the tone will not be too dry. it doesn't sound digital at all. dedicated reverb controls for instrument and vocals adds more versatility in the acoustic player's tone. if you want more, then you can add a reverb or delay pedal in the effects loop.
volume. yes. this little baby can be as loud as it can be. it can increase volume without being muddy or fuzzy AS LONG AS you can dial in a good balance between Gain, amp Master Volume and your guitar's volume.
USE:
personally, this amp suits my needs perfectly. this amp is well suited for home practice but it can hold its own in indoor bars and coffee shop-like venues. when i go to bar gigs or events, i just bring my DI/preamp and plug directly to the mixer hence i do not need a big acoustic amp.

nice maxi..
hindi mo na kailangan mag dala ng DI sa gig, you can use the Headphone out as per ZT website. (DI out din yun).
although i'm not sure if gagana pa rin yung speaker, walang block diagram sa manual eh para makita.
try mo..
Nice, Maxi. Personally, I would try to use this as monitor and feed a signal to the board for PA. What if you used your DI box in between this and the board just to interconnect unbalanced and balanced? Kung walang PA, of course, not a bad choice at all.
Did ZT say if it's an FRFR system? If so, the modeler guys should seriously look at this amp.
^^ i think it's Full Range Flat Response
@deltaslim..
hindi full range ito...checked the technical data, its within the range of 10Hz-10kHz.
normally ang mga speakers may mga certain frequencies lang ang nailalabas nya, kaya paminsan may mga loudspeakers na 3-way or 4 way. (eg. may 3 cones to cover hi-mid-low freq)..pero mayroon din mga speakers na kahit isa lang sya, kaya nya from 20Hz - 20kHz frequency range.
with your ZT, according to the specs, nasa 10 Hz - 10Khz lang. meaning nasa midrange-high ang tonal characteristics ng lunchbox mo.
slight addendum to my review above:
i also have some CONS on the ZT Acoustic. but these are mostly due to the amp's inherent limitations (i.e., speaker size). given this, reasonable expectations should be put in place.
currently i'm working on them to see if there are workarounds (i.e., tweaking, etc.). i'm going to share these cons when i have identified all possible workarounds.

10Hz is impressive but 10 kHz seems bitin?
Maxi - How is the sibilance/brilliance/sparkle?
Any reviews about the ZT Club?
still no complains on my Club 12, arguably my overall best amp ever! and I have had quite a bunch of amps already(just for reference here they are)
-Fender Champion 110
-Fender Blues Jr.
-Fender Blues Deluxe
-Fender Dual Showman Reverb SF
-Fender Twin Reverb SF
-Fender Red Knob "The Twin"
-Carvin X100B
-Peavey Classic 30 and Classic 20
-Vox Night Train
-this small 5W Teisco Tube Amp
I may have forgotten a few but that's pretty much all of them.
the Club 12 wins because
-it's almost as loud as my previous 100W tube amps
-sounds fairly good for my use, actually it can cover most genres if you use pedals (it reacts like a Fender tube amp in terms of pedal friendliness, it's like a clean canvas that you can paint whatever color you like, it isn't as bright as the fenders though)
-it doesn't break my back when I lug it around for gigs and jams (even much more portable than the night train head!)
-it didn't break my wallet that much
-it looks really road-worthy I still haven't experienced any problems with it.
this is really, REALLY a great amp for performing musicians who prefer to bring their own amps and don't have roadies and uses pedals instead of amp drive and other effects or modeling. :-D
thanks ZT and thanks to sir Bryant (stonelake) for giving me a chance to own one. :-D
wala bang review sa zt club 12? :roll:
check post # 129.aw , demo pala master chino :-) my bad
aw , demo pala master chino :-) my bad
hindi ko makita yung CONS.. by the way, lunchbox continuous power is at 120W RMS. yan ang tunay nyang power. yung 200watt advertised power is actually peak. Malakas parin for a small amp !!
Yesterday, I got this for my Club 12 :-D

I think Bolt Thrower did record with the CLUB :-Dhmmm I hope he replies and gives a general assessment on the performance of the Club when used for recording. :-)

performs great man! i cant stress it enough. experimented with mic placements and positions to give a bigger sound without using a 4x12. we do high gain stuff so we need to make it sound gigantic.very nice chief! thanks! :-D
If you dig some deathmetal listen to these test mixes we uploaded in Myspace:
www.myspace.com/massdefectph
This one has a mic near the center of the cone. And another one is placed farther pang ambient.
We recorded a dry signal just in case we want to edit in the near future. We might re-amp with a club connected to a Laney 4x12 this month or so. I'll let you know how that will go.

besides the speakers
both lunchbox and club are rated 200W
what is the difference of the club vs the lunchbox with its extension cab? (lunchbox cab)
i wanna get one :D

The Club feels like a more solid amp vs the Lunchbox with its extension cab. Mas kumpleto eq ng Club because of its speakers. The bass is fuller and it moves more air.this.
I will buy a Club 12 next month. Tentatively. Help me please. :) Where and how much?Yown! :lol:

Hi RegionIII,
please contact ZT amp support right away.
http://www.ztamplifiers.com/support/technical_support.html
please quote where u bought the amp from (dealer) and serial number, and notify them re: your ZT issues.
Thanks and hope this helps.
Stonelake.
thanks bro. austin gibbons offered to replace the unit but i told him it would probably cost the same if i get a new unit here as opposed to shipping it back to the us. i think i'll just source out repair here.
i doubt it. most likely, they will ship it to you from hongkong, the nearest ZT factory from us. and you as well will ship the defected one back to hk. i got it that way, and what i paid didnt exceed the price of the unit. not even by half.
was it for sale? if it is how much? :lol:
Lunchbox was around 18k and the Club was about 33k. :lol: :lol:
hehe exactly. +8K sa Club12 :lol:
hahaha mahal ah.
Lunchbox was around 18k and the Club was about 33k. :lol: :lol:

are they selling the lunchbox acoustic? :-)
Watch out for the ZT Ghost & ZT bass amp this summer.
ano lamang ng zt club 12 sa roland cub na 1x12 din? mas pricey kasi yung club pero yung roland may mga effects nang kasama...besides the obvious difference in wattage.
club 12= transparency and tone. loads of it.
much more pedal friendly too.
umm pano mo masasabi na mas pedal friendly? what's the basis? sorry, just curious, thinkin bout getting the club kasi hehe
i have it.
at nakagamit na rin ako ng roland cube60 when i thought of buying one too. unang rinig mo pa lang sa dalawa side by side, anlaki na ng difference ng transparency ng tunog much more if you plug in pedals. the club is designed as a transparent amp while the cube is designed to be a modeling amp. and as you know with modeling amps, they don't take pedals very well.
may efx send/return din club for more pedal/efx flexibility.
yep i used clubs on those. +liptone sansampgt2 clone and mxr 6band
the final tracks in the album will be clubs micd straight and clubs in 4x12s.
March 12. Club is mine. WAHAHAHA
does it lack a 'chug'? :?
NEW AMP YESTERDAY! :-) Earlier than expected.
Quick question though, what are your usual gain settings? I used it for 30 minutes last night random tweaking. Any tips for a chug?
counter intuitive yung gain knob niya e. i set it at noon for everything except reverb. then control the "chug" from the pedals. Gain gives you more ooomph instead of giving you distortion.
the club12 has lots of low mids. So di problema ang chug.
Where do you get your highs? :)
gaya nga nung sabi ni pakoy, habang lumalakas yung club 12, nagkakadimension yung highs niya. i get my highs from the eq pedal though. that's just me. the club's highs can be fender-ish for me if i crack it wide open. and im more of a mids guy.
pero if i need it in clean passages pag direct to amp lang, di naman ako lumalagpas ng 7 sa high knob. the gain knob also can give you some "presence".
Pilipinas represent! :-Dnice!

ZT BASS AMP
"The ZT Bass Amp got a 12" woofer w/ two tweeters. It's about 17" wide, 14" high and 15" deep, and it'll put out as much clean punch and big bottom as a 4x10 at about 1/4 of the size. Exact specs & features still TBD. You can get yours summertime. A BIG hit at the NAMM show with all who heard it. Really impressive."

ZT GHOST
"The Ghost is ZT's most compact amp ever - 6.5" driver, 30W RMS (50W peak output), wide tone sweep, gain control for everything from clean to AC/DC bite to superfuzz. The most drive ever offered by ZT! Tone, Volume, Gain, Headphone/Line Out, Ext. Speaker Out, 1/8" Aux in. A professional quality amp for the home, desktop, or recording studio, and our first amp under $200. Look for it in stores in May."

Lookin' good!
that bass amp looks so bad-@ss in black. may tweeter pa.
kinda wished the club was also in black so it wont be out of place hahaha
+1
but to think about it man, one of the most priceless things about bringing a club or a lunchbox on stage, especially in a metal gig, is the "WTF IS THAT" look you get from other bands, PA guys and other people. Then you surprise them with power and tone during soundcheck. I'm sure anyone who brought a club to a big gig was asked "ano gagawin mo sa isang 30w practice amp e meron naman tayo 100w marshall o kaya half stack?"LOL tsktsktsk :-D
:-D :-D :-D

are ZT amps locally available here?Electrosushi or GodOfWar
ah basta. si electrosushi lang at si god of war ang may after sales repair guarantee. :-D
how much was it?wasn't able to ask. just saw it through their store's window.

That, and I'm going stereo. So... next year = 2 CLUBS?!?!?!?!?!? :evil: LOL
hold your horses. they might release a club ext 1x12 cabinet next year. :-D
may possibility pa nga daw na may irelease pa sila na 2x12 na CLUB2.
in black. :evil:
But stereo works best when the amps are in opposite ends of the room. Though, that sounds promising as well. :-)

ZT Lunchbox cost 16,500PHP at ElectroSushi.
CLUB wont be available until End Of May, cost 25,000PHP.
Thanks.

mga sir, a simple inquiry. how much does the lunchbox/club cost nowadays? pa PM if you may. tsaka i think i ran the whole way thru the thread and a lot has recommended the amp/s for metal (chug). in relation to this, has anyone experienced tone suck at any given point? thanks for your time!
how much was the launch price?
it works pretty well with metal and heavier music. if people can use peavey bandits, and line6 1x12s and manage to be loud, then you wouldn't have a problem with the CLUB. It's closed back too so the bass response is fantastic. It's a good amp with lots of mids so you can dial in a good chug.
And how many combo amps can power a 4x12 and sound just as good?
Buy one. It's one of the best solid state amps out there and the most practical too.
rrussel/godofwar is a mutual friend and pretty much play the same genre as him. nway, i was recommended a lunchbox years ago and available nga daw ZT's thru him. mga ganun din kasi presyo. that's why i said it was nice that it stayed at the current price range..
May murang crate na 4x12 sa classifieds. :roll:
There will be limited stocks of ZT CLUB, ZT Lunchbox, ZT acoustic amplifier and ZT lunchbox cabinets at ElectroSushi from Mid June 2011.
Meron po bang ZT Bass Amp? I checked the site pero I couldn't find one.
any update on prices and what amps are available at this time locally?
Search for Electrosushi sa Facebook. :-D
I'm eying on a lunchbox. I'll be using it for gigging purposes. Should I get it or save a bit more for a laney cub12r? Prob ko kase yung mobility and maintenance ng cub12r over the lunchbox na sobrang portable. ZT club is a bit expensive for me so it's just between a lunchbox or a cub12r.

I've seen and heard it from previous meetups and I definitely know its loud. Pero I'm pretty concerned about its somewhat lack of character: like how a brit amp sounds brit and to a fender a fender - kaya I'm still not sold to it... yet. haha
It actually does have its own character, a prominent ZT amp sound! :-D
:-D
you guys think that the lunchbox would be good enough for metal and gigs? im trying to upgrade and i can't afford the club :|

nope. if you do metal, the CLUB12 is the only option.
this. speakers pa lang ng lunch box won't handle metal. that matters.
Kaso hindi daw nya afford ang Club sa ngayon. So, kung hindi afford ang Club, I think the Lunchbox would work. :-)
maybe he can take the time to save up some more. sayang din kasi pag Lunchbox lang kinuha niya tapos mabibitin siya sa actual gig. then he will end up selling it for a lower price.
Get a Lunchbox now and save for an extension cab. LOL! :-)
diba 6in speaker din yung extension cab?
Yes. Lunchbox without the amp.
ah ok. ganun din pala. i'd rather get a Club kasi 12in speaker is a world of difference against a 6in speaker.
ah ok. ganun din pala. i'd rather get a Club kasi 12in speaker is a world of difference against a 6in speaker.
I actually sold my Lunchbox nung nagka-Club ako. I'm just encouragin him to get the Lunchbox kasi hindi daw kaya ng budget ang Club. :-D
Other extension cabs will do basta 8 ohms minimum.
made a world of difference diba nung naka-Club ka na? :)
Wondering if you can use the ZT Acoustic as a competent keyboard/PA substitute?
if you're gonna use only 1 channel, it can be a good substitute. but if you're gonna use both channels, make sure you tweak the gain knob to achieve balance you want. based on experience, one of the signals will be distorted if not mixed well. mahihirapan yung maliit na speaker eh.Hey Maxi thanks for the reply,I assume nasubukan mo na gamitin ito sa keyboards?If youre happy with the result then its good enough for me.

I want your opinion guys, I've tested the ZT Club a while ago sa In-Tune. I like the clean sound. do you think it's worth it to sell or swap my marshall avt50 to a ZT Club? parang nakukuluban talaga ko sa tunog ng amp ko eh.
YES!!!thanks dude! I didn't had the chance to compare both of them side by side. fear ko lang, baka manipis pala tunog ng ZT Club
thanks dude! I didn't had the chance to compare both of them side by side. fear ko lang, baka manipis pala tunog ng ZT Club
help naman,di ko magamit yung headphones out ng zt lunchbox ko, pagnagsaksak ako ng headphones parang walang nagyayari.
Depende sa headphones ga gamit mo. Anong brand yan?
help naman,di ko magamit yung headphones out ng zt lunchbox ko, pagnagsaksak ako ng headphones parang walang nagyayari.may switch sa likod yan na internal tsaka external speaker. pag naka plug ang headphones mo, i switch mo sa external speakers
phillips ginamitan ko lang ng adaptor e
mga sir im thinking of getting the lunchbox plus the extension cab sa tingin niyo ba kayang kaya na sa mga gig un? thanks! :-D
If that's your plan, I suggest get the Club instead. Mas convenient yun for gigs. Pero if you really like the Lunchbox with extension cab, pwede din naman. :)
thanks for the reply.:D kya po ba nung lunchbox and extension cab maki sabay sa club 12?
Lunchbox with cab... good for big stages or venues that can mic both speakers to the PA. May be good for standalone use, but only for more mature bands. or jazz gigs. Those that can adjust well to the volume level the Lunchbox is limited to. as it doesn't pack the punch/thud of the club but it sounds more 'sincere' to me, if that means anything. I'd like to put at least about 10'ft of distance between the amp and the cab.
Club... is the lunchbox with ooomf and reverb. too heavy to lug around in short gigs, so it stays in my room. but a few weeks ago i brought it to the beach resort and made a ruckus from my room towards the bay... i like also to use it as my portable PA System, sorry ZT fanatics hehehe. hindi nga lang sya ganun ka ganda tunog for ipods or music players, the gain knob kinda ruins the sound. but its good and loud enough to attract people to your bonfire.
Overall, ZT's are not "good tube amp" substitutes nor do they sound organic like tube amps, but it sounds like no solid state I've ever heard specially the lunchbox. If you get your tone from your pedals and you just use your amp for clean and volume, this line of amps is perfect. i get my tube feel from my SD twin tube on my pedalboard.
Very well said. If you rely on your pedalboard, these amps are perfect.
Funny. I also use my Club as a PA system sometimwes. LAWL!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:
lakas kaya hehehehe

nag reply na ang ZT, ngayon ko lang nabasa.
Thanks for writing in.
The effects loop on the Club affects everything in the signal chain, Aux input included. So while that isn't great for your particular application, it is normal in that that's how the amp is built. The only real way around this is to use your effects at the front of the amp, so they'll only be on your guitar. Unfortunately there isn't any way to have them bypassed in the effects loop.
Let me know if there's anything else I can help you out with.
-Austin
yun lang ang ayaw ko sa club, tsaka nababasag ang reverb pag nag palm mute ka with distortion.
Hihihihi... Take care of that baby. Always put her inside her cradle (Baluti bag)... :lol:Will do Bro. I'm home alone yesterday and today. Kalahati pa lang yung volume ng Lunchbox tapos tinapat ko pa sa bintana. Pagsilip ko sa andaming tambay na nakikinig sa baba. Anlakas!

Tsaka everytime ililigpit ko na, tinatago ko pa sa closet kasi nga sensitive yung tubes. Ngayon yung ZT Lunchbox ko nakabalandra lang dito sa sala. Fragile mashado yung Cub10. Yung ZT hardcore, di mashado kelangan ng maintenance. Bili ka. Nagiipon ako bibili ako ng ZT cabinet kay Electrosushi. Ipon muna.

Ayun na ang cabinet!!! 200 watts Lunchbox amp + 200 Lunchbox cabinet = 400 watts! Lilipad na ang bubong ng kapitbahay nyo, bro! Hehehe... :lol: :lol: :lol:7k lang yung cabinet Bro. Madami daw stock. 100 watts lang yung cabinet so 300 watts. Lilipad nga bubong namen nito.
Nag-inquire ka na kay Darwin, bro? Magkano yung ganon?
7k lang yung cabinet Bro. Madami daw stock. 100 watts lang yung cabinet so 300 watts. Lilipad nga bubong namen nito.
I think when the head is 100watts, 100 watts lang talaga yun kahit magdagdag ka pa ng ilang cabinet. Wattage is the power capacity of the amplifier, not the speakers. So example, if you have 20watts head, even if you connect a 100watts 4x12 cab, the power is still 20 watts.
Anyway, I'm also interested in getting a ZT lunchbox as a second amp. Na try ko yung sa cousin ko, and similar with some of the comments here, the sound is not that full compared to bigger amps. Pero for the size, panalo na, x10 pa when you connect a cab. Maganda pa yung lunchbox case nya, hehe. My cousin plays metalcore with Fractal Axe FX, ZT lunchbox head and a Blackstar 2x12 HTV212 cab.
Sana makasali din ako sa club na to in a few months. Lurk lang muna ako ngayon, hehe.
Dang! Lunchbox for metalcore! Astig!Ay, o nga pala, hehe, 200 watts. About higher wattage heads, I think okay lang as long as hindi i max yung volume. Pero not sure about it, kasi I'm just starting to learn these heads/cabs thing. I've always been using combo amps since high school, hehe.
200 watts yung Lunchbox amp, bro. That's why I thought 200 watts din yung extension cab.
Teka, pano naman kung mas mataas ang wattage ng amp kesa sa cabinet? Oks lang din ba yun?

Awwwww... Hindi pala nila naalagaan e. Sayang naman. Ano amp mo ngaton, bro?yung marshall avt50 pa rin. kaso iniisip ko namang palitan ng pre-amp tube. kaso titignan ko pa kung may difference nga pag nagpalit.wala lang akong oras pa. hehehe
nakakapanghinayang lang yung club 12, dalawa lang naman yung ayaw ko sa kanya.
1. pag naka effects loop, sumasabay yung accompaniment music mo na nakasaksak sa aux in. pag umapak ka ng distortion, distorted din. pag chorus, may chorus din. goodluck namang sabayan yun hahaha.
2. nababasag yung reverb, pag naka distortion ka, tapos nag palm mute ka, mag e-echo tapos mababasag.
kung ma resolve ng ZT yun, panalo ang club 12 nila. bibili ulit ako. hehehe
kayo ba, naeexperience nyo yun o defective lang talaga yung binigay na unit sakin?
I don't use the effects loop sa Club ko pero subukan ko nga one of these days...
I rarely use the Reverb knob din pero try ko din soon. LOL!!! :lol:
Now, my questions...
1. To those who use the ZT Club sa gigs, pano ang configuration nyo ng Volume at Gain knobs? Nag-tone party kasi ako mag-isa sa isang studio kahapon, nasa 12 o'clock ang Volume at 9 o'clock pa lang ang Gain knobs ko, makatanggal tutuli na ang lumalabas na sound sa kanya pag naka-engage ang dirt pedal/s ko.
2. May nabasa ako na isang review na "tubey" daw ang sound ng Club. I wouldn't know kasi wala akong experience masyado sa tube amps. So, to the owners of ZT Club na may tube amp din, "tubey" nga ba ang tunog ng Club? Naga-GAS kasi ako ngayon sa tube amp. LOL!
1. 12 sa gain, 2-3 sa volume. Bar gig na yun. With pedals engaged. Although now, I use the power amp section more often.
2. Tried it against at vox15, a 50W Valveking and a Blackstar HT. So far, may pagka tubey naman ang tunog ng Club sa clean at slight OD. Bilog at pino unlike a Roland Jazz Amp. Although mas panalo pa rin ang fender tube amp pag cleans. Try both. Iba iba din kasi.
May gumamit ng Club ko sa Jazz gig. 20pc Jazz Big Band sila. Volume nya lang nasa 4, gain at 3 pero litaw na litaw sa mix without mic. Clean lang. Ganda ng tunog niya, malapit sa Vox na timpla.

Can the Lunchbox keep up with a Loud Drummer? and currently we have 3 guitarists in the band.Can the Lunchbox keep up with a Loud Drummer? yes. gain and volume on 3'o clock. use boost, overdrive and /or eq for higher levels and better shaping. it can handle it.
@joel i changed my mind, I'm getting the club instead! hehe
Betterrrrr! :)
Excited na ko :)
Hindi ka magsisisi, bro... Actually, na-post ko na sa classified couple of weeks ago yung ZT Club ko kasi nga may bago na akong tube amp. May mga pupunta na nga sana sa bahay to test e. Yung isa sa mga magte-test dapat was yung bagong gitarista ni Franco. Pero ni-retract ko na lang. Hindi ko kayang ibenta e. Sulit na sulit naman kasi talaga ang ZT Club. Hindi kamahalan pero panalo sa perpormans! :-D
mismo!
2nd lunchbox came in 2 weeks ago pala. An LP stereo'd via a chorus pedal to the 2 amps on 3'o clock gain yields a lovely vintage jackolyte tone... inaantay ko ng kumatok ang building admin na may kasamang security. hehehe
And sorry din bro, hindi ko na ibebenta kahit sa yo. Hehehe... :-D
Eto, kakatapos ko lang gamitin ulit. Tama nga si Ali, mas maganda pag around 12:00 yung gain tapos habulin sa volume ang desired na lakas. Ang ginagawa ko kasi dati is 9:00 lang ang gain tapos sa volume na lang babawiin ang lakas. Mas okay yung suggestion ni Ali. May natutunan ako today! :)
no problem, bro. ok na ako sa lunchbox. pa try na lang minsan ng club mo sa next jam kung magkakaroon man. :-(
Sure! At pag ready ka na bumili ng Club, may alam ako na nagbebenta, mababa ang bigay. :-D
Yun, tapos ako kukuha ng lunchbox ni Martin! Fixed!
Oo, tapos ipagawa mo na lang kay Mang Raul yung volume knob. :-D
Broken! haha. Tingnan ko yan martin, baka magawa ko. Malamang broken pot lang yan. Nasa Canada na daw si mang raul e.
Ganetch?!!! So sino na ang bagong amp maintrenance king ng Pinas?!!! :-o :-o :-o

uy di nga? sana kaya mo magawa? malamang nga broken pot lang. gustong gusto ko pa naman tunog nito.

nandito na uli si mang raul pinas. :) kausap ko ngayon.
tol bumigay yung isa kong tbx head nung isang araw. ang ginawa ko naman ginawa ko head zt amp at 16ohms. tangna bastos sa lakas pag naka 4x12. pano pa kaya kung tumatanggap 8ohms yung cabinet. lalakas pa!
sulit talaga.
(brotip: off mo lang speaker pag naka head mode ka. nag ooverheat pag pinagsabay mo. pag power amp head naman, sarap saksakan ng mga rack amp modelers tipong axe fx, pod pro at elevenrack)

My very own zt lunch box with little Junior. :-D

hello mga sir.. newbie po. ask ko lang kung ok ba sa stompbox zts?
planning to get a lunchbox with extension cab :-)
Very much stompbox friendly, bro. :-)thanks sir!
Yep!!! Very pedal-friendly... I have a suggestion, though. Instead fo buying a Lunchbox with extension cab, why not just buy a Club? :-Dbakit na suggest mo club bro? haha.. sori ala talaga ako alam sa amp. mmm gustong gusto ko kasi sa kwarto ko ng cab at head haha.. gas ba lol
thanks sir!
bakit na suggest mo club bro? haha.. sori ala talaga ako alam sa amp. mmm gustong gusto ko kasi sa kwarto ko ng cab at head haha.. gas ba lol
Di ka madidisappoint sa ZT Club. Kaya nya sabayan mga malalaking amps.
It was my dream amp before the Philmusic sulsuleros introduced tube amps to me. :eek: :eek: :eek:
First of all, mas convenient kung yung Club na lang kasi isang bitbitan lang yun compared sa Lunchbox with extension cab.thanks sir.. pang bedroom jam lang sana. anyway incase pang gig pede naman bitbitin lunchbox hehe.. thanks sa advice bro. btw naka try kanaba ng lunchbox with ex cab.?
And second, in my opinion, mas maganda tumunog ang isang 12 inches na speaker compared sa dalawang 6.5 inches na speakers.
Sana makatulong. Try mo din pareho para mapakinggan mo kung alin ang swak sa taste mo. :-D
We have very good friends here sa GC talaga. hahaha :lol:
thanks sir.. pang bedroom jam lang sana. anyway incase pang gig pede naman bitbitin lunchbox hehe.. thanks sa advice bro. btw naka try kanaba ng lunchbox with ex cab.?
Kumbaga, good (Lunchbox), better (Lunchbox with cab, best (Club) sya... :)wow thanks! now gassing for a club.. yun club 200watts din? ntry mo na club + cab = overkill? hehe
wow thanks! now gassing for a club.. yun club 200watts din? ntry mo na club + cab = overkill? hehe
Hehehehe... GAS will never end as long as tumatambay ka dito sa GC. :)bagay na bagay sa maliet kong kwarto yun. pag labas ko baliw nako hahahaha.. si electrosushi dealer ng zts yun diba? san ba maganda umiskor ng zts?
Hindi ko pa na-try gamitan ng cab yung Club kasi super lakas na e. Pero si Ali (Bolt Thrower), na-try na nya. Bastus daw sa sobrang lakas pag naka-4X12 na cab pa e!!! :eek: :eek: :eek:
bagay na bagay sa maliet kong kwarto yun. pag labas ko baliw nako hahahaha.. si electrosushi dealer ng zts yun diba? san ba maganda umiskor ng zts?
Hi MrGobots,
Have you tried using the Club with a 2x12 cab? Pwede ba yun?
Happy owner of a ZT Club here :) Natatapatan ko yung Marshall halfstack sa gigs hahaha :D
2x10 lang... pero in theory the lunchbox and the club share the same power, parang speaker size at reverb lang ang pinagkaiba, so with the main speaker turned off, more or less pareho lang tunog nila. at least thats how I saw it when I tried them both with the 2x10.
nakakita ka na ba ng muka ng tech/amuyong pagtinanggal mo yung speaker cable sa cab nung marshall MG nila tapos ikinabit mo sa lunchbox? priceless...

pag nakabili ka na, magpagawa ka ng bag kay Baluti Gear. :-D
p pm naman sir price ng bag pra sa zt lunchbox from baluti.
san kya makakuha ng orig zt bag?
cannot find the baluti adds mag inquire sna ako.
Well, you have 3 options...
1. Electrosushi
2. Ombeng Moknat (here sa Philmusic)
3. InTune (bought my ZT Club sa Greenhills branch nila)
Tapos pag nakabili ka na, magpagawa ka ng bag kay Baluti Gear. :-D
Sure! At pag ready ka na bumili ng Club, may alam ako na nagbebenta, mababa ang bigay. :-D
hahaha! okay yun a! buti hindi nagagalit sayo?sorry haven't really tried the effects loop in my club... but 8ohms to 8ohms should work and yes sa speaker out jack lang.
San mo pala kinakabit yun? sa may speaker out jack (with the 8ohm label?)? Would that also work if I'm using the effects loop (because I'm using a different preamp)? thanks MrGobots :D
LOL!!! I could imagine! :-Dkiller face madalas, pang meme
Ibig sabihin ba nito mas mura sa InTune Greenhills yung ZT Club? Plano ko kasi bumili pag may natira sa bonus. hehe
sorry haven't really tried the effects loop in my club... but 8ohms to 8ohms should work and yes sa speaker out jack lang.
btw san ba naka place yung loop sa circuitry ng club? anyone here know exactly where? is it before the reverb? how does the signal travel ba guitar? gain>volume>eq>loop>reverb?
although, i don't really need that info with my current set up now, but may be i can plug the pod hd directly into effects loop in and get a significantly different result.killer face madalas, pang meme
Pag naka effects loop nakasaksak yung board ko, the ZT club's preamp is totally bypassed. So the reverb / eq and volume controls won't work. Thanks for the answers bro :)
bali gain lang..... interesting, now I'm wondering why I never tried using the effects loop... masubukan nga.
totoo po ba ito?

OT -> FT to ZT Club both my Roland Cube 30x and VOX AD30VT
Haha nag post na!
ZT Club. :-D
200 watts is overkill for the bedroom, baka tirahin ako ng leftover fireworks ng kapitbahay hahaha :eek: :lol:

200 watts din yung Lunchbox. :eek:how is the amp at low levels? :)
LOL! Ako nga sa condo pa nakatira pero naka-ZT Club e. Minimum nga lang ang volume. :-D
i know man :) remember the beast petrify gig? freakin loud man :-D how is the amp at bedroom levels though? :razz:
and I don't' wanna go deaf due to loudness haha :lol:how is the amp at low levels? :)
good point, but I read online that they need a cab for gigs apparently. idk why a 200 watts amp would need a cab that would just push the destruction levels higher hahaha :-o :-D :)

pag lunchbox kailangan mo siguro ng cab pa lalo na kung metal tugtugan. kahit 200 watts yun bitin pa rin yung response ng 6in speaker vs 12in speaker. kaya mas ok talaga club12. yung lunchbox puwede pag jazz, blues that dont require much low end or body.
bedroom levels, yun nga 12 sa gain 845 sa volume, all other knob settings flat. malakas pa rin pero buo tunog.
MALAKAS. hinay hinay lang. kung nalalakasan ka na sa pevaey bandit, medyo mas malakas ito.

At low volume, the Club sounds good also. Gain knob at 12 o'clock, volume knob at around 8:45. :-)ok ok :) ligawan nyo pa ako mag club 12 :-D balak ko kumuha ng lunchbox kasi yun ang kaya pero mas ok yung club 12 ah hehe :-D
I'm seriously considering the Lunchbox. I've heard lang na it heats up a good deal. Does it still get hot even if you use it with a cab?
Yeah, that's an issue with the Lunchbox. However, if it gets too hot, it shuts down automatically. If that happens, you just have to turn it off for like 15 minutes or so, and then, it'll work again.
I'm just not sure if it still gets hot if you use a cab... My guess is yes. :)
I was thinking na baka the temperature just shoots up because it's in the same box as the driver or something but yeah that probably doesn't make sense since it's still passing current. Okay, now that my pedal/guitar GAS is done I just need a more powerful gigging amp. Baka mabitin ako sa Micro Terror so 200w might be my best bet. :))
Ah, oo naman! Hindi ka na mabibitin sa 200 watts, bro! Hehehe...
I think I just saw a new ad sa classifieds na nagbebenta ng ZT amps. Mura yung presyo ha, in fairness. Bought my ZT Club sa InTune for 25k almost 2 years ago. Tapos parang 22k lang ang benta nung seller sa classifieds ngayon... :eek: :eek: :eek:
I think I saw that ad! Sometime this year, I'd probably get a 2x15 cab and a ZT Lunchbox. That MIGHT be enough volume/air for wall of sound stuff. :))

Tried doing a 2x12 double Club12 setup awhile ago. I think I'm deaf in my left ear. LOL! May feedback pa rin ako naririnig. That's 400watts of power on tap! I barely got to 8 oc'lock and it's damn loud.

Dang! Dalawa ang Club mo?!!! :-o :-o :-o
hahaha yeah perks of being an endorser. :lol:
How's your Lunchbox pala? Naayos na ba?
I miss my Club 12. I'm thinking of getting one again if....
You can run a rack unit with it? Is it just as simple as hooking it up in the FX loop?
Sorry, I'm back to noob. :eek:
Tanong ko lang po kung ok po ba pang gig sa small venue yung ZT Lunchbox Jr.?
yep efx return ka lang mag saksak.
hello! ok ba pang metal ang zt club? o malata?
More than enough, man!!! 8-) 8-) 8-)
so what's a remedy for the overheating issue? electric fan pointed at the back of the amp? :)
That's what the guy from ZT told me. Nakakatulong daw yun sa Lunchbox. :-)
sa ZT Club naman di na kailangan tapatan ng fan sa likod. May mga heat sink naman siya sa loob. The most Ive run my CLUB was 61/2 hours at 60-70% volume. Mainit talaga pero di siya nag auto shut down.
More than enough, man!!! 8-) 8-) 8-)sir! kinakabahan kasi ako baka puro mids at high lang sya? alang low at chugchugness help! :-(
sir! kinakabahan kasi ako baka puro mids at high lang sya? alang low at chugchugness help! :-(
Actually... You can actually get more chugging with mids rather than excessive lows. :)
Sino na po ang nakatesting ng lunchbox junior? Pwede ba siyang pang-humbucker crunching? (with pedals)
Actually... You can actually get more chugging with mids rather than excessive lows. :)thanks sir sa advice :-) meron kasi akong gustong mix sa low at mids para sa chugchugs hehe so iniisip ko baka alang low ang club then hindi ko ma achieve yun tone gusto ko. mids at high zt obviously ok jan pero po how about sa low? :-)
sir Bolt Thrower sasaksakan ko sana ng vox tonelab sa front end, marshall-esque preamp sim. Habol kong tone tulad ng
tantiya nyo po ba hihingalin yung amp? :D
eto medyo test mix. pero zt club 12 gamit ko dito:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dcgNRLcUsgM
kung ganyang sludgy soundgarden na tunog gusto mo bro, kayang kaya ng club12 yan. yung recorded nga namin puwede pa dagdagan madami bass. mid and treble heavy lang.
Ala eh! Kamahal naman nire!!! :-o
http://www.zzounds.com/item--ZTAPEX1
tapos di naman maganda
Hello, pwede po ba sa bass guitar ang ZT lunchbox ? I was at Mike Sison's place the other day and he tested my bass in a ZT Lunchbox, malakas! Ako natatakot, baka bumigay? Syempre alalay lang dapat; pero ang ganda pala ng ZT lunch box, saan ok bumili nito dito sa 'pinas? Salamat po.
Magkano ngayon ang Lunchbox at Club sa Pinas?
GAS ko to last year kaso naging pangarap na lang dahil sa wedding expenses... :eek:
I think 13k na lang ang Lunchbox at 21k ang Club. :-D

Hello all,
Just wanted to ask how to know if a ZT Amp is legit?
I saw some ZT Amps being sold here in Davao at Victoria Plaza. I was planning on getting a Lunchbox Junior.
Thank you all! :)

Was suppose to get a Club 12 but no stocks from Ombeng Moknat. Oh well, POD HD GAS. lol
Ayos to! Pinong-pino yung gitara o! ZT Lunchbox lang to pre? Walang pedals/multi-FX?

yep, Franco and his new guitarist used this on gigs, two for each of them...
wow. stereo setup for their delays?malamang sir, hindi ko din kasi masundan yung path nung cables nila...
malamang sir, hindi ko din kasi masundan yung path nung cables nila...
Pano nila kinakabit yung 2 ZT clubs? So parang 2x12 setup ba ang labas nun?
magaan lang ba yung ZT Club ? magkano na bentahan nung lunchbox at club ngayon 2nd hand at brand new ? locally ah
tried reamping 2x12 na Club. gamit namin splitter box or amp selector. although puwede naman din going through the amp send of the other amp. parang power amp lang yung isa.
Sorry di ko gets.. pano yung wiring nun? San siya sinasaksak sa likod? Hehe.. nakakaintriga kasi eh..
One more question: pwede ba let's say bili ka ng amp head tapos saksak mo sa Club para gawin mo siyang 1x12 cab?
meron na fake na zt amps?
guys, saan mga local music stores in manila makakabili ng ZT Club? thanks!
Its possible, lalu na super simple lang ng construction ng ZT amps IMHO.
Mga kaibigan nating Chinese mahusay sa pag kopya.
In tune Pro Music Shop,, I think (not definite) Behringer carried it for a while but stocks were pulled out..
See you tom sir :)
Norvin Aka Ombeng :)
No problem bro. Puwede kasi from your guitar or effects chain kuha ka splitter box to feed one signal to two amps. Or Slave out ka sa kabilang amp. Plug ka sa guitar input nung amp1. Lagay ka cable sa amp send papunta sa amp return nung amp2. Di mo lang magagamit pre amp nung amp 2 kasi power amp lang gamit mo.
Yung speaker out kasi ng zt pang speaker cabinets lang.
Haven't tried this one. Siguro same thing with using a preamp. Sa effects return ka sumaksak. Mas okay kung may preamp out yung amp head na yan.
Who is the local dealer of ZT amps? Checked In Tune, they don't carry this brand anymore. Thanks

I also supply them :) , yes,, it was pulled out from behringer and in tune,,,
Mods, paki-delete na lang and notify ako if may existing thread na about this :-D
ZT amps,
* malakas ba talaga siya tumunog? specifically the Lunchbox
* Kaya ba ng Lunchbox ang full band/ studio rehearsal set-up?
* Pedal-friendly ba siya? multi-effects user here :-D
sa mga ZT amps user, comment naman jan mga sir. thanks :wave:

Can anyone direct me to where I can buy ZT amps? If I remember correctly, guitar Luthier MICSIS was actually using one the time i had my guitar set up. It was so small, yet it packed huge tone. Thanks!
good day mga ZT amp user's, tatanong ko lang kung meron ng naga testing or naka try ng ganitong setup sa ZT lunchbox Amp
Guitar -> Guitar Effects -> ZT Lunchbox amp -> (12" or 15" 300 or 500watts) P.A. LoudSpeaker (Active or Pasive)
any idea or suggestion will be a big help.
(http://i1272.photobucket.com/albums/y399/Asuradasix/example_zpsb4afc7d6.jpg)
bad idea. won't sound good. try a guitar cabinet instead using the speaker out of the lunchbox. .
naku sir thank you sa reply, and sir kahit na ung loudspeaker is power speaker hindi parin magiging magnda ung labas ng tunog galing ZT Amp?
oo pre. di made pang frfr speakers ang zt amps. you need guitar speakers. a good 1x12 or 2x12 would suffice. puwede din kasi mag overheat yung zt mo pag power speakers mo nilagay.
ok sir it is clear to me na di pwede ung loudspeaker kahit na passive or active speaker sya. buti nalang nag tanong ako bago ako mag score ng lunchbox.
mas ok kasi ung lunchbox pwedeng ilagay sa backpack na jansport eh hehehe. tpos saksak nalang sa kung saan pwede hehehe
thank you sir.
Meron naman nabibiling extension speaker ang Lunchbox, sir. Cute na cute din. :-D

Based sa specs, it only has a speaker out. You can connect it to an active speaker. You can connect it to an 8 ohm passive PA speaker, but I cannot comment on the resulting tone.
na-try nyo na sir? ano kaya ang kakalabasan ng tunog sir. curios lang kasi ako, salamat sa input sir
Mine is a technical answer based on published specs. I have never tried a lunchbox.
Edit: typo pala original reply ko. It should be you cannot connect sa active speaker.
much better na hindi ko nalang gawin para di masira ung speaker pati ung amp. mahirap na rin. thank you sa input mga sir.
Pwede sya ikabit sa kahit anong PASSIVE speaker cabinet basta 8 ohms (or kahit 16 ohms). Pero, mas magnda yan tutunog sa speaker cabinet na pang gitara na talaga. Na try ko na isaksak yan sa 1x12 and sa 4x12 na guitar speaker cab. Mas solid ang tunog.
Yun kasing PA na speaker cabinet, if 8 ohms, pwede mo isaksak, hindi masisira yung lunchbox, pero since hindi made for guitars ang speaker, I asumme na pangit ang tunog. Pero you can try, basta same impedance 8 ohms and up hindi yan masisira, yung sound lang baka hindi mo magustuhan (but then again, baka magustuhan mo).
By the way, yung speaker out ng lunchbox is for PASSIVE speaker. Hindi yan pwede sa active speaker.
By the way, yung speaker out ng lunchbox is for PASSIVE speaker. Hindi yan pwede sa active speaker.
ah so sir pwede pala sya sa (PASIVE Speaker) basta 8 ohms up ung ohms nya. but it depends nalang kung magugustuhan ng player ung output ng sounds galing sa PA speaker.
reason why nag come up akong ganitong idea kasi, what if walang guitar cab or isa lang ang mic at walang mixer ang napuntahan mong jamming tulad ng biglaang jamming ng friends nyo. pero may extrang passive speaker. at may dala kang lunchbox so tuloy parin ang jamming diba sir.
and may i repeat sir, hindi pwede sa (ACTIVE Speaker)
Thank you talaga sir sa info and we hope maka tulong din ito.
Yup tama sir.
If biglaang jamming, kayang kaya ng lunchbox ang band (wag lang metal). Kami nga, 2 guitars, ako naka 4x12 100watts na amp, tapos bass naka 100 watts na bass amp, drummer, and 1000w na vocal speaker, litaw na litaw pa dun yung isang guitarist namin na naka lunchbox.
:-o litaw paring ang bulilit amp. hahaha, un lang sir, genre namen is metal may pag ka rage at rap metal, but still i will try parin. sana maging ok,
sa mga me issue regarding sa nag ooverheat na lunchbox just PM me me sulution na po tested ko na sa lunchbox ko....
hi bro freemansj ayaw ko kasi bro pagkakitaan ng ibang bro natin dito sa PM dito kasi pag pinost ko yung aulution eh gawin pang buss. ng mga iba dyan at baka maningil pa ng malaki at dpo aya pwedeng DIY need nya ng tech.actually pwede naman sila mag email...

sya mismo nagbigay ng sulution sa problema ng overheating na ZT lunchbox....
ano ba ginagawa niyo sa mga zt niyo para mag overheat ng ganyan? :lol: tatlong club 12 diresiretso nag rereamp tracking ng halos full volume, walang problema e.
Guys, dark sounding amp talaga yung club no? Pansin ko kasi masyadong bright ang timpla ko pagdating ko sa gigs kasi tinitimpla ko sa house eh. (tamad ako magdala ng amp minsan kahit magaan na). I tried putting an EQ in the fx loop, pumapangit naman yung base tone. I have the high freq at max, and the bass freq at 10-11oclock. Take note that this is bedroom level only. Dapat ba medyo mataas ang volume para matweak ng maayos yung highs?
Yes, sir, dark sounding sya talaga.
Eto ang settings ko sa Triple Wreck sa tugtugan (studio jams) with my band pag ZT Club ang gamit ko: Treble = 2:30, Mids = 12:00, and Bass = 10:30
Kakabenta ko lang 2 weeks ago nung Club ko. :oops:
Kita ko yun as classifieds.. Ano pamalit mo sir? :)
I tried Ali's reco (gain at 12) then habol na lang sa volume.. Mas ok yung highs bigla :)
May nag-reserve agad nung Club ko wala pang 1 hour na naka-post.
Mag-Boogie na ako. Hihihihihihi... :-D
Ah, yes... Gain at 12:00 tapos timpla na lang sa volume. Ganyan din ginagawa ko. Ayus pa ang cleans nya sa 12:00 na gain.
Lintik! Kaya naman pala! Hahaha! Gas man!! Congrats on the boogie :)

I tried Ali's reco (gain at 12) then habol na lang sa volume.. Mas ok yung highs bigla :)
Tenchers! :wave:
minsan nga 3o'clock yung gain ko para mas may highs ng konti. pero kung clean application ok na yung 12 sa gain. yun yata yung optimum level niya na pantay ang tunog. malinis pa rin naman e. pag mababa masyado gain ngongo at dark tunog.
lagi din ako naglalagay eq sa efx loop. pero kahit saang amp naglalagay ako eq e. so di ko napapansin diperensya. :lol:
Laveeet!
Wow!! Thanks Ali for the wisdom. Hehehe! Never ko pa natry i-angst yung gain ng ganun. Kagabi nasiraan ng amp sa gig, pero buti may nagdala ng Behringer GDI21.. nasalo pa. Pero naisip ko sana dinala ko na lang yung ZT.. problema lang baka hiramin ng lahat. Hehehe.. :)
Bro, nakatry ka na ng lunchbox sa gig? If ever oo, kumusta naman?
Kung heavy sa distortion or metal ang tugtugan, di kaya ng Lunchbox. walang dating. pero ung tamang alternative, or mellow styles, kaya ng lunchbox hahahaha
Ah talaga? Hmm.. napaisip ako bigla. Anong pinakamabigat na music ang pwedeng mahandle ng Lunchbox? Anong klaseng "tamang alternative" - parang Gin Blossoms? hehehe..
Played a gig before with Doubletrouble. Around 200 people. Medyo malaki yung venue pero closed. Lunchbox ang gamit nya. We played songs from Summer of 69 to Semi Charmed Life. Okay naman. So, IMHOU, okay lang sa alternative si Lunchbox. Sa metulllzzz sya medyo kukulangin. :)
Would you say sinlaki ng 70s Bistro yung venuw bro? hindi mic-ed pero kaya? :O
Never been to 70's Bistro. Hahahaha! :lol:
Yes, hindi mic'd yung Lunchbox sa togs namin na kinwento ko.
interestinggggg :O baka yung timpla lang ng friend ko sa dirt niya sa lunchbox kaya wala masyadong Oomph. :O might have to sit with a lunchbox soon!
I'll try the lunchbox at Micsis.. kasi di ko mapihit yun at gigging volume kasi nakakahiya (and hindi akin yun) hehe. I'm sure the ZT Club can do it, pero my bandmate and I are thinking of getting Lunchboxes to gig with... para madali dalhin ba.. I'm not sure if that's good idea though.. (cuz I'm letting go of my Club IF EVER)...
Bro, nakatry ka na ng lunchbox sa gig? If ever oo, kumusta naman?
Kung naka try ka na ng Club12, huwag na, mabibitin ka lang. Hahaha! Pero to be fair, malakas talaga yung Lunchbox. Nung may party kami nila Pete nung pasko yung isa sa amin naka Lunchbox lang, sumasabay sa Mark V at Plexi. Pero di naman mabigat tugtugan. Low to medium gain.
sarap din siya pang Jazz at Bossa.
mga ZT Amp people! may tanong lang ako
ako at yung tropa ko had to try a ZT Lunchbox Junior, then he plugged first using his Tokai Breezy Sound Tele so we calibrated things and mix our pedals on a all 12 o'clock setting sa knobs ng amp. then he got a good mix on it.
then here comes me plugged in my axe using a LTD MH-100QM equipped with Dimarzio Super Distortion, suprisingly on the same amp settings, my overdrive na yung output nung amp, as in thick OD sound.
has anyone experienced this one? talaga bang ganun ang output kapag humbucker pups ang gamit?
TIA! and GOd bless! :wave: :wave: :wave: :wave:
High output kasi ata yung pickups mo. So mag ooverdrive talaga yun kapag naka set na lahat sa 12 oclock yung knobs nung amp... try mo babaan yung gain? hmmm..
Super bilis talaga mag-break up ng Lunchbox Jr.
Tingin ko because of the speaker size eh.
Wala naman issues yung Lunchbox Junior, kasi we tested it over and over again and again, the Tele with SCs really stays clean, but mine is overdriven, thick OD. we tried interchanging from SCs to humbuckers sa akin lang talaga ganun, i'll try my friend LP sa weekend, if ever ganun padin bka nga because of the wide range humbuckers provide sa sound versus the SC pups. :?
If you want to get clean tones from your guitar using the Lunchbox Jr, babaan mo yung pickups mo. :)
Hehehe.. sige sige. Isip na lang kami ng paraan para sa amp niya. Hanap na lang siguro ng isa pang club or similar :) salamat salamat :)if you wanna sell your Club, send me a message. hehe
Share lang mga sirs! :) Used the ZT Lunchbox here :)
Signal chain:
Schecter Blackjack ATX 8 - Wampler Triple Wreck - ZT Lunchbox
eto settings ko amp:
Ambience - 12 o'clock
Tone - 11 o'clock
Volume - 3 o'clock
Gain - 12'clock
Maraming salamat din kay cayle sa pagpapahiram! :)
*verdict:
medyo bitin sa heavy riffing, kailangang i-force yung pick attack para mas mahabol yung chug chug. bagay na bagay at litaw na litaw sa mix naman sa bagsak bagsak na chords, leads and fills. bagay siya sa tugtugan namin since most of time, puro chords, leads and fills ang ginagawa ko. kung hindi lang siya umiinit (IIRC, 40-45 mins ata set namin nun), kukuha talaga ako ng ZT lunchbox. :)

sobra ba yung init bro Fidel? as in nakaka-worry na?
NAD! This thing is a monster. Kaya sumabay sa drummer and pwede dalin sa gig mismo. 5 pa lang volume anlakas na. I wasn't expecting so much from this amp but this amp really sing. Ganda tunog!

ZT Club User here, saan kaya may available na carry bag?
Walang carry bag na readily available para sa Club. Nagpagawa ako kay Baluti dati.ahh kay Baluti pala.... Thanks Bro. :-D
Oo Bro. Galing to kay Nicky.
Joel, eto yung kay nickson diba? yng Jr? :D
Oo Bro. Galing to kay Nicky.
Oo angganda. Tone is in the fingers.
Is it normal?..... Whenever I turn on/off the amp there’s a sound (thump) … the sound will pop once every time I power on/off the amp even when the volume & gain are all the way down. :-(
Would you say sinlaki ng 70s Bistro yung venuw bro? hindi mic-ed pero kaya? :O
Yes it is normal.
From ZT Amplifiers FAQ (http://www.ztamplifiers.com/support/faq.html)
There’s a loud ‘pop’ noise when I turn the amp on and off. Will that damage the amp?
No, the noise is perfectly normal. It’s essentially the result of switching on or off an incredible amount of power in an instant. This does not damage the speaker at all.

Share ko lang guitar amp cover ko....synthetic leather ang material.....
Any other ZT dealers here? Electrosushi doesn't carry them anymore. Thanks!
Wala na ba talagang nagbebenta ng Club? Kahit sa ZT sabi naka-hold pa yata production eh. Should I buy a Lunchbox instead, or may mahahagilap pa ba akong Club somewhere? :)
Ang hirap naman kase maghintay na may lumitaw. :cry: Excited na ako eh... Some people are trying to convince me that the Lunchbox is good enough, but having the Club would remove any worries I have - for a price, that is. Kung gumraduate na kayo sa Club niyo, message niyo ako! Hahaha. :-D
Dadalhin ko sana as amp for gigs eh. Kakayanin kaya ng Luncbox sa venues like Route 196? Genre naman is not metal, pero tamang bigat din at bagsakan ang tugtugan. :-D
Good day! just want to ask, if ideal to use the ZT Club or lunchbox in a studio rehearsal? as i review the feedback , madali syang magoverheat. I'm planning to have a studio rehearsal kasi. Still undecided whick amp to buy.
appriciate any advice. Thank you!
peace.
Is there an authorized repair shop for ZT amps here in Manila/Philippines? or anybody who does repair ZT amps???

How about Lunchbox?
Pahirapan na talaga kumuha ng ZT club ngayon! Yung kabanda ko gas na gas hahaha :)
anyare bakit tinigil production ng club?
Hey everyone i just got my Lunchbox today. Any tips? also do any of you notice a slight buzzing when you are at about 12 o' clock or past 12' o clock especially at bass notes? Also the AC cable maluwang pa siya talaga or dapat medyo snug? I've been experimenting with an EQ pedal and Reverb so far i love the amp =)
yes. mejo nahihirapan talaga siya sa bass notes dahil sa small speaker. roll up your tone pa to compensate. :D
i changed my AC plug to a more durable, PC version. para mataba talaga hahaha so snug siya ngayon. :D
happy tone hunting! :D
Thanks po =). Do you know where i can get the Lunchbox Cab?
Pao Ortega? tama?
anyway, try mo kay electro sushi, tska kay bro norvin. anjan siya sa taas nagpost siya about ZT Stocks ng store niya :)
Yup =))
ZT amp users!
I'd like to ask for your input on using a ZT Lunchbox with an acoustic guitar (fitted with SD Mag Mic). I know there's an acoustic amp version but I'm thinking of using it with effects ala John Butler
well, it will work, itll be loud, but it will definitely not sound like an acoustic guitar as the ZT Lunchbox is not an FRFR amp like the Lunchbox acoustic.
is the lunchbox acoustic capable of playing with an acoustic piano and acoustic drums? nothing too loud naman more on indie folk -ish stuff
yes. for a small venue, it'll be okay. you need to mike it for larger venues.
thanks for your input! I'm contemplating between this and a Marshall AS50d :-o
sir Ralph, kung FRFR ang lunchbox acoustic, will it work sa PodHD500X? or am I out of context?

anyone know where to get ZT products nowadays? already checked with Norvin and Carlsys music and they no longer carry them :(
