Prescription Extra Strength/Junior Strength

Intro:

Thank you for purchasing a Dr Z Amp.  This amplifier was designed to give you 

years of playing and sonic enjoyment.  We are proud to forge ahead and create 

new tube amplifier sounds with a nod to the classics of the past.

Whether you are a touring professional, weekend warrior, or basement jammer; 

we take your sound and need for a reliable amplifier seriously.

Overview:

The Prescription design structure is unique for a Dr Z Amp, it uses an EF86 pen-

tode set up in a post EQ gain layout. This alignment yields a rich harmonic com-

plexity and an almost active response from the tone stack. The dual calibrated 

inputs allow for sustaining gain in the Hi, and a rich warm clean in the Lo input 

jack. The RX also features a footswitchable “Overdose” mode, which engages a 

3 dB boost for added drive and gain without altering the pre set tone, same EQ’d 

tone just much more DRIVE.  The Junior Strength RX also employs a post phase 

inverter master volume circuit.  This allows for a very transparent ability to dial in 

great overdriven tones.  The RX JS also uses a 5Y3 rectifier to give the low end 

a very pleasant bloom and spongy feel.  A 5AR4 rectifier is used on the RX ES to 

give it the big tight low end needed for stage use.

drive will occur along with an increase in level.
