How does this guitar compare with your old guitar, other guitars, or guitars you've tried in stores?
There is no comparing my new Zager to anything else that I have owned or played. The Zager outplays them all.
What's your favorite part about this guitar?
The sound and the ease of play.
If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
1500-2000
How would you rate customer support?
Well I've not really needed any support since I got the guitar but when I was trying to decide which Zager to purchase I emailed Dennis jr about 50 times. Dennis jr. Is the best. He helped me with any questions I had and I had a lot of questions.
Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
Absolutely. This guitar is so well made and so easy to play. When I took this guitar out of the box I sat down and played for three hours. No pain or soreness in my fingers at all. The sound is just as good as aged Martins that I've played and this thing is brand new. When it gets a little age on it I don't think anything will compare to it on sound.

10 out of 10 again "amazing"
Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
Yes, yes, yes, don't go any where else.
Additional comments:
Hi, I am "Max Twelve O Six" a singer/songwriter in the NYC area, and I just got my Zager guitar. I went on a search for a guitar about one year ago, I tired may, many guitars at stores around my area, most of these store here have pretty much all the top guitar anyone would want to play and I did tried them, I can say proudly that my Zager guitar by far outplays any of them, you would have to be crazy to not get one if you are on your search. One of the biggest reasons why I needed a new guitar, is because I have very bad tendonitis on both hands and arms, so I needed a guitar that I could play without aggravating my condition and I know I found it with my Zager.

How does this guitar compare with your old guitar, other guitars, or guitars you've tried in stores?
I have four acoustic guitars. A Taylor,Blueridge,Gibson and now a Zager80ce. The Zager blows the others away!!! It is much easier to play and has a much deeper and richer sound. I don't get near the volume with the other guitars.
What's your favorite part about this guitar?
The ease of play is amazing and I have never played a more beautiful guitar but the sound is my favorite part.
If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
$2500 to $3000
How would you rate customer support?
Unbelievable! My emails with questions were answered very quickly. One even on the Fourth of July . I was not expecting to here back for several days but it only took about 50 minutes .
Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
Absolutely ! It is a beautiful instrument that almost plays itself and has an incredible sound.
Additional comments:
If anything ever happens to this guitar I won't have to shop. I'll just order another Zager.

.Unbelievable, Denny and the team have been fantastic, whilst I had to wait longer for my guitar due to initial quality of wood was not deemed not to be of the standard required, and kept informed all the way....great team.

Absolute and unequivocal.

As a beginner, to own something like this is .Fantastic, at such an affordable price it just goes to show that this company is not about money or profit but quality and customer satisfaction, I will recommend without being cheesy!!

What's your favorite part about this guitar?
I like the look, sound and play-ability. It is a work of art.
If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
I don't know for sure, but I would say it compares in quality, play-ability and sound to a $1500 to $2000 guitar

Excellent A+. This is what impressed me the most about your company. The direct communication from the people that actually own and run the company is unbeatable. Plus your willingness to work with the customer exceeded my expectations.
Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
I would highly recommend your guitars to anyone looking to buy. When you compare the quality of the instrument, ease of play, sound quality and finally the customer service I can't think of a better company to buy a guitar from. Plus you are buying from an american company that has a mid-west work ethic. What could be better? I congratulate you all on your fine product and company.

well know that I own and have played the zad 80ce I think the guitars in the store are all over priced or your price is cheap. the playability is light and comfortable. the sound is warm, clean and the resonance is awesome. ive played the high end Martins and Taylors and the zad 80 stands alone

I will continue to share my the experience to all my musician friends and have the play my zad80c
Additional comments:
First off for me I don't buy guitars without playing them 1st, but when I saw the add on the internet pop up for your guitars I clicked on it because I never heard of them. When I watched the video testimonies I decided to take a shot at the Zad 50ce that you have on sale for $795. I received my guitar today and unpackaged and looked over the guitar and was amazed at the workmanship, I am a 30 year machinist that daily builds parts to blueprint, so I know how hard it is to manufacture things. I sat down and played it.This guitar is truly a piece of art. The tone and resonance is warm/ sharp and sweet and it does play easily just like one of my high-end electric guitars. The whole time I was playing it, something in the back of my mind was wrong though. When I was done playing the guitar and putting it back in its case then it hits me. This isn't the guitar I ordered, its the Zad80ce. So I go back to the box with the shipping instructions and confirm that the shipping label says Zad50ce. I pull out the shirt out of the bag and notice the black envelope with the post it note that says " You've been upgraded to an 80ce for free"! Dennis Jr. I sat back in my chair and was humbled. I want you to know how grateful I am and appreciative of your generosity. I play with a lot of musicians in bands and open mic nights and I can't wait to share this story with everyone and let them try this guitar.

How does this guitar compare with your old guitar, other guitars, or guitars you've tried in stores?
This is the first acoustic electric guitar that I have purchased. I'm new to the guitar and have primarily played an epiphone hollow body. I love the tone and the ease of playing even with the limited skills that I've developed thus far.
What's your favorite part about this guitar?
It's beautiful and it sounds great.
If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
Hard for me to say since I haven't purchased or shopped for that many guitars.
How would you rate customer support?
Superb.
Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
I would, but being a novice I'd be more inclined to let them try it and I'm pretty sure the guitar would sell itself.
Additional comments:
Looking forward to continued learning and hours of enjoyable playing-thanks for your dedication to the craft.

Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
Yes, Because for the value - to price ratio - it is the best in the industry. Moreover, even if it cost more... I would still recommend it.
Additional comments:
I received my new Zager 900CE guitar and I wanted to let you guys know that I am completely satisfied and most impressed with the workmanship, skill and expertise ZAGER put in designing and making this guitar. I have had so many guitars over the years (some of the other top brands) and I wanted to say that this guitar is truly the best I have ever owned! The easy of playing, the rich and profound sound, the beauty and the electronic transducer/pick-up are the right combinations for a “near perfect guitarâ€. I will be letting all my associates and friends know about the ZAGER custom guitar company.

How does this guitar compare with your old guitar, other guitars, or guitars you've tried in stores?
I was looking for a quality 3/4 guitar. This has great sound, appears to be crafted very well, and has a beautiful finish. The ones I tried at stores used laminated woods, didn't have as nice of a finish, and sounded "tinny" to my ear. This one sounds like I'm playing my regular size guitar.
What's your favorite part about this guitar?
The size. It's easy to transport and easy to play. When my 9-year old grand-daughter visits, she can play it while I play the full size guitar. In the meantime it's become my "go to" guitar.
If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
$700 to $800.
How would you rate customer support?
I haven't required customer support other than being updated on delivery. Dennis immediately responded to any inquiry I had.
Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
Yes. It's a beautiful product with a great sound at an affordable price. You can't go wrong.

How does this guitar compare with your old guitar, other guitars, or guitars you've tried in stores?
The sound quality was not as deep as my Epiphone...making me a little nervous. I read all the literature that you sent and noted that the guitar would get a deeper tone once the wood cured. When I first began playing it my fingers hurt (I have not played in a while)and I thought easy play? I next played a chord with a light finger touch and laughed out loud at the full rich sound with such a light touch. The playability is all that was promised.
What's your favorite part about this guitar?
One cannot choose a single favorite. The beauty out-classes any guitar that I have seen and yes the playability; something that I have to remind my fingers that a hard press is not necessary.
If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
$3,500 to $4500
How would you rate customer support?
Boy do I know about customer support! I ordered my guitar on January 30, 5014 and knew that it was backordered. I emailed Dennis and had an immediate reply with the anticipated delivery month. I emailed him several times in the interim and had a gracious reply each time. When the delivery month arrived I was notified that there would be a delay due to a non satisfactory delivery of materials. I considered canceling my order and purchasing a guitar from a local music store. Dennis gave me this opportunity and said that you would refund me at anytime. I decided to stay the course. I was told that the new delivery date would be the end of June and on the first week in July I had my guitar. Customer support...Great!
Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
Yes, the beauty, playability and cost versus lesser quality guitars costing an equal amount are reasons to order a Zager.
Additional comments:
My zad900ce arrived with an upgraded case, a years worth of strings and a very nice guitar strap. All due to the wait time. Now that is taking care of ones customers!

How does this guitar compare with your old guitar, other guitars, or guitars you've tried in stores?
This guitar is so much easier to play, and has such great sound quality! I have played a Martin guitar, but it was harder to play. I barely have to press down on the frets with my new Zager guitar.
What's your favorite part about this guitar?
Easy to play.
If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
Doesn't matter... I love it!

Customer support was excellent and kind!
Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
I would most definitely recommend this guitar to others, because it's a beautiful guitar, plays easy, and most definitely has great sound quality.

There is no comparison. This is a masterpiece in quality and craftsmanship.
What's your favorite part about this guitar?
E V E R Y T H I N G. There is no way I could choose any one part over another. They are all equally excelletnt
If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
I would expect to pay well over $2,000.00 for this ZAD50CE Special
How would you rate customer support?
Customer support is superb. Dennis answered my questions usually within 10 mins of sending the email. I don't know of a better customer service.
Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
Without question. The quality of the instrument and workmanship are excellent, but the sounds and ease of playing is unmatched. The action is incredible and your fingers do not get tired after extended playing.
Additional comments:
I could not have found a better guitar for myself. The sound is incredible and the ease of playing is something you have to try to believe. The entire package is off the chart. The guitar, the case (with humidifier)and the care and attention to detail that Dennis Zager puts into each and every one of his guitar4s. I'm sold, and so will you be.

The look, feel and sound of this guitar speaks for itself. It is by far the best guitar I have owned.
Additional comments:
I’ve had a guitar most of my life, but never really took the time to really get into it. I have mostly just picked it up every once and a while and strummed along to songs or tried to figure out how to play something. This year I decided that (at the age of 59) it was time to do something that I always wanted to, really learn to play guitar. Once I started practicing on a regular basis, I felt myself not being able to put in as much time as I wanted, since my fingers we bothering me. Playing an electric guitar helped a bit, but my acoustic was not very comfortable to me. After about 50-30 minutes my fingers (not just my finger tips) were hurting. I started on my internet search for help. I tried finger exercising, bought finger exercising grips (which does help a bit), had the acoustic setup with the action as low as I could get it, but I either had to suck it up and work through the pain, or keep looking for a magic answer. Well, I think I found it. After doing a lot of research on the internet, I thought I would try a Zager guitar. They seem to have a great loyal following, although they also seem to have a lot of haters, which made me shy away at first. Most of the negative reviews I saw were from many years ago, so I thought I would give one a try. I was on contact with Dennis Zager Jr, who answered any and ALL questions I had before I made the purchase, not only quickly but honestly. Since Zager has such a great return policy, I figured I had nothing to lose, but the pain in my fingers. I ordered a ZAD50 Sunburst from their discount section. Great(er) price and almost perfect (once I received it I had a hard time finding the small cosmetic defect). Due to a UPS screw-up, I had to go pick up the guitar at the UPS office. The UPS employee at the counter was also a guitar player and had never heard of Zager guitars. I told him a brief history, of course he had known Zager and Evans great hit, “In the Year 2525â€. I was excited to see the guitar and play it, so I opened it in the UPS Office. I also purchased a case, don’t buy a guitar without one, and when I opened it and tuned it up, I knew it was a good decision. It sounded Great!! Of course the UPS guy wanted to give it a whirl, which I let him and it sounded even better with someone who really knew how to play. I unfortunately had to go back to work, but when I got home I was like a kid with a new toy. When my wife called me for dinner, I realized I had been playing for well over an hour pain free. I thought that maybe it was the “new toy†adrenaline, but so far I have not run into any significant pain issues. First, any fingertip pain is gone. The amount of pressure required, is so much less than my other guitar. I guess the pressure I was exerting on my other guitar was causing my joints to hurt, but that pain is minimal know. I have no problem going an hour or 2 comfortably. Another first happened. My wife actually knew what songs I was playing without me telling her. My

The neck fits my hand better and the string height makes it easier to make chords without as much pressure. The strings themselves are to me smoother and feel better on my finger tips.
What's your favorite part about this guitar?
First I love the look but then comes the sweet sound...
If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
I figure in the 1200 range as some others I have looked at but they did not play as well.
How would you rate customer support?
To this date the customer support has been outstanding...Every question I have asked has been answered very promptly and answered in a way that is easy for a beginner like me to understand...
Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
Absolutely...It is a quality guitar for a very good price.
Additional comments:
Just want to thank the Zager folks for their help and service. If not for this guitar I might have gotten fed up with sore fingers and quit. This has helped me to extend my practice times greatly and sped up my learning curve...

I have owned 28 guitars in my life time and had them from Gibsons, Yamaha, Fenders, Ovation, Harmony, Music man, Martins Mitchell's, Stella, & more, I still own 8 of my collection and 4 vintage which I love playing and sound great. When I received my Zad50E took it out of the case it was just beautiful, The Sunburst color is such a great finish and the smell of the Mahogany wood is very strong and fresh, Love it, I tuned it some from the long trip to AZ with the on board preamp tuner, the guitar sounded great played wonderfully up there with the very top of the line $3000.00 plus guitars that I previously own. The case has a beautiful black felt cushion perfectly cut to fit the guitar snug & Zager Logo on it which looks great also
What's your favorite part about this guitar?
Well my favorite part of this Zad50E is the sound it puts out, from the very low end to the high end E & B strings just sing out, The on board Fishman 60 is one of the best that I have plugged in to an Amps and sounds great, On board tuning is quick and easy and very accurate tested it with my other tuners and right on pitch. The playability is very easy and the feel of the neck is just a perfect fit, easy and quick chord changes, just an all around great guitar to play for hours on end.
If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
I would have to rate my new Zad20E around the price range of about 1800.00 to 2500.00 dollar guitar
How would you rate customer support?
Customer service is right on and answered my emails with in minutes of any questions that I might have asked about the guitar before I even purchased it, that was a mind blower cause companies to day take days to reply if they do at all. Dennis was emailing me as soon as he received my email. That said a lot for me.
Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
Oh I would most definitely recommend these guitars to any of my musician friends, this will not be my last ZAGER by far Planning on to purchase the 50 & 80 CE in the future to add to my collection of beauties
Additional comments:
I have been playing guitar for over 50 yrs and have played them all from low end to high end in the thousands, and this Zager is right up there, the looks the style just a beautiful finish, and of course the sound just awesome, The comfort of holding it is a perfect fit could play it for hrs and never get tired of playing it. My Thanks to Denny for a great design & Dennis for a great customer support and also can't beat the life time warranty for no additional money for insurance like on most guitars being purchased out there

I have an Ovation Ultra that from day one, needed the action lowered. The seller did not mention that, it was my first big dollar guitar so I was ignorant of guitar set ups. After years of not being able to play beyond the fourth fret, I had the action lowered. It plays better but I liken the frets to playing a cheese grater! Sound is dull. My new Zad50E is light years ahead in all aspects, playability, tone, Fishman 60 electronics package with tuner over all quality.
What's your favorite part about this guitar?
The tone, its so clear and rings out.
If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
$1000.00 easy..

Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
I already have. Over all quality and sound and customer support.
