How does this guitar compare with your old guitar, other guitars, or guitars you've tried in stores?
I currently play a 000 rosewood guitar and a martin d-18. The Zad 50 is equivalent to the martin and a little less bass than the 000. The quality is much better than the lower priced martins I have played. Fit and finish is about the same as the 5000 to 2500 martins.
What's your favorite part about this guitar?
Being a professional antique furniture repairman. I appreciate the quality of the joinery and the setup. The finish is nice but uses modern materials so it won't approach the finish on older guitars.
If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
Probably in the 1000 to 1500 price range.
How would you rate customer support?
I purchased my Zager used although it had never been played and still had the film cover on the top so I have had no experience with customer support. I expect that I will have some contact with them when I purchase an 80 model.
Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
This guitar is a good buy and it comes with an excellent setup. Other guitars I have had all came from the maker requiring a 100 to 500 setup charge from a local luthier.

How does this guitar compare with your old guitar, other guitars, or guitars you've tried in stores?
I've had an Ovation, Epiphone, Aria, and Guilds for acoustics, Fender, Gretch, and G&L for electrics. The Ovation was my favorite acoustic for ease of play, and the Guild is a vintage Westerly mahogany dreadnought which has a big deep voice. The Zager Parlor has an even lighter touch than the Ovation, almost approaching that of a good electric right out of the box. I tweaked it a little more with a very slight neck adjustment and removed a shim that was under the saddle. I emphasize that the neck adjustment was light and probably due to the temperature(90+) from sitting in a hot UPS truck and the removal of the shim was due to a personal preference due to my stlye of play. Ease of play is incredible.It is easy to bend notes, hammer on, or pull off. In fact I'm having to consciously lighten up and try not to be too heavy handed.
What's your favorite part about this guitar?
The finish is beautiful. The volume and tone is amazing for a guitar this size and price. I read some reviews that criticized it for it's lack of bottom tone. I disagree. It has plenty of bottom voice. Not as big and fat a sound as a good dreadnought, but for it's size it's amazing. So let's compare apples to apples. It out sings a Martin hands down, and completes with plenty others costing twice as much. Oh, the wood is gourgeous too by the way,obviously high grade.
If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
$500 -$600. There are some solid mahogany high quality, not fancy, baritone ukeleles out there that cost that much.
How would you rate customer support?
Personal, attentive, very responsive and appreciative of your business. The guarantee cannot be beaten which is what helped me decide to try one. When a company stands as firmly behind their product as Zager does it's a good bet that it is a quality product or they would go broke taking back returned guitars. The guarantee speaks for itself.
Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
Absolutely! I have already recommended them to a friend of mine who has the same hand problems I do. These guitars would be immediately appreciated by an experienced player who has a lot to compare it to, and would keep a beginner from getting too easily frustrated. Another thing that was important to me is that it was MADE IN THE USA.
Additional comments:
Playing the guitar is something that has always been a meditative, trancendental kind of thing for me, so being able to play again goes way beyond just finding a decent guitar. Thanks Denny and Dennis!

How does this guitar compare with your old guitar, other guitars, or guitars you've tried in stores?
The playability of this guitar easily rivals a 3,000 guitar. Smooth action and no buzz. I had an Epiphone which was stolen quite a few years ago and thought it was a great guitar but it was not this nice.
What's your favorite part about this guitar?
Crisp, full sound and tuning is a breeze with the Fishman system. (Can you really fall in love with a guitar?)
If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
If I didn't know the price I'd say it was easily in the 2,000 to 3,000 range.
How would you rate customer support?
I am impressed! It's difficult to get good customer support but you guys rock! Dennis always answered my questions with real professionalism and never pushed. Kind of rare these days in sales support.
Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
I would absolutely recommend this guitar. If you want a high end guitar without the high end price, a guitar you can be proud of and that is very playable and will make you sound better as a player, this is it.
Additional comments:
Denny, thanks for a great guitar! Dennis, thanks for all of your quick email responses over the last few months while I did my research and "checking things out". I don't want to leave out the on-line lessons either, nice to have that available. I signed up for them on the first day and spent over two hours practicing. With the Epiphone I would have had sore fingers and I don't. (You gotta love that!)

How does this guitar compare with your old guitar, other guitars, or guitars you've tried in stores?
Over the years, I've played a number of acoustic guitars; Martin, Ovation, Gibson and an Epiphone that is approaching fifty (my first guitar). The ZAD80 is superior in action and definitely on par for tone with some higher end guitars.
What's your favorite part about this guitar?
Playability. I haven't quite figured out why but in general it's an instrument that plays easy. Not really sure how to describe.
If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
$1500-$1600
How would you rate customer support?
Outstanding. Almost instant reply to messages.
Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
Yes, for your attention to detail and quality. The instrument I recently purchased was discounted due to a cosmetic flaw. I'd give the guitar to anyone and challenge them to find it. That says something about your quality control.
Additional comments:
You are a pleasure to deal with. Thank you.

How does this guitar compare with your old guitar, other guitars, or guitars you've tried in stores?
First let me point out that the guitar I purchased from Denny was a ZAD-50, not a 50, but there was no option to choose that model. I used a 3/4 size Guild when I was in College (in the 70's) and purchased a Madeira from a local NYC shop that was closing it's doors in the 80's. The Madeira was definitely NOT an EZ play guitar...and it was probably what kept me from playing a lot more in those years. I bought a few lower end Washburn models off the internet and the ZAD-50 outshines them all...soundwise and playability. I gave the Madeira and one of the Washburns to my son but closely guard the ZAD-50 as my favorite. I may update that from Denny's collection soon as I am slowly becoming more adept at this instrument. I can play for hours now (calloused fingers help) and my wife actually enjoys my "concerts". I have NOT spent a lot of hours playing guitars in the box stores (Sam Ash, Guitar Center, etc.) but I intend to do so. I do NOT think I will find anything near the price I paid for the ZAD-50 (or the updated model prices) that will sound so sweet and play so easily.
What's your favorite part about this guitar?
Definitely the ease of playing. The sound is a function of the strings against the frets and unless you can get a clean contact the sound will never be good. I don't have to worry about it when I am playing the ZAD-50.
If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
I would say around $750 or so. My son is a musician and lives with several guitarists. I have played their Gibsons and various other models and I would say my ZAD-20 is right up there with their instruments.
How would you rate customer support?
I have never had a problem so I would not know. I did write to Dennis Jr. and got a response within the hour which was a pleasant surprise.
Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
Yes. You cannot beat the price and the unlimited warranty including shipping both ways is simply the best testimonial to the Zager line.
Additional comments:
Pretty finish as well. I am sorry I rubbed off the signature on the back but after years of use it was to be expected. May Denny can come to NY and re-sign it?

It was my first guitar. i now have a 65 Epiphone 335 (dot) and a Gibson VOS 1957 Goldtop. I had it rewired with 4 push/pull pots. Vol pots turn humbucker into single coil, tone pots take it out of phase, and put it in series. very versatile guitar. I have NO need for another acoustic. lol
What's your favorite part about this guitar?
All of it. and the fact that everyone that plays it is blown away. Friend of mine has a Martin, nice guitar... Until he played mine. He was amazed at the tone and playability. I played his Martin. Did I say play? I mean I fought his Martin.

Gotta remember, this was my first guitar. I did my research (It had the highest rating on Harmony Central of all Acoustic Guitars) My neighbor just finished playing it, I put new strings on it today, and he was blown away. I asked him if I should use a Medium string, he said "dont fix it if it isn't broke" lol He said the SP martins are made for that guitar. He wants to borrow it for church, funerals, etc... Now I guess I need a case for it... lol Terry Davis 239 Badger Circle Roxboro, NC 27573

I have tried many Acoustic Guitars at Guitar Center and every single one of them doesn't compare to the ZAD80CE! They just didn't ring out the Chords and the buzzing strings were annoying.
What's your favorite part about this guitar?
I have been playing for almost a year now, but embarrassed to admit that I have never learned Guitar Chords, because it was so difficult until now. I am truly amazed at how well the Chords "ring out" on my new ZAD80CE. It is actually enjoyable to learn a new Chord Each day. Thank You! Thank You!
If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
I would have paid at least $1750 for this guitar. The prices are way too low. I imagine in the future that the pricing will have to change because of the Laws of Supply and Demand.
How would you rate customer support?
Dennis has been amazing. He has a Live Chat via the Zager website. I emailed him a question and literally 5 minutes later, he had an answer!
Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
I would recommend this guitar, because of its ease of use (ie. the EzPlay Setup) and the guitar is absolutely gorgeous.
Additional comments:
I definitely made the right choice purchasing the ZAD80CE. I can tell that Zager is looking out for "our" best interests and not theirs... There aren't enough American Companies like this anymore. Please keep up the great work guys!

This guitar is absolutly the best one I own. I have an Ovation Legend since 1972, A very great sounding guitar, but not the easiest to play, A Carvin 980, beautiful guitar. It plays fairly easy and sounds good, but the body is so large that it is uncomfortable to play while sitting. I also have a Ibanez semi hollow electric and a Carvin Bolt kit I built Both good but need to plug in. The Zager is as easy to play as a well set up electric and the sound and action gets better every day. The guitar is beautiful to say the least. I used to go to the music store to play guitars I could not afford. I have tried them all. Now I go to see if any one can make a guitar as good as my Zager for under $3000.00 NO ONE HAS

I can't praise the support enough. Every comunication I have had seems like I am dealing with a very good friend or family member 10 x 10 is not even close.
Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
yes I have and will continue to do so. I have two teen age grand daughters who have just decided to learn guitar. As soon as I am sure that they will stick with it , they both will recive a Zager from me.
Additional comments:
I am very sorry that I didn't discover Zager sooner. Denny is very honest and will never need to put someone elses name on a guitar just to sell it for a few thousand dollars more Like all the major guitar makers do.

I am very sorry that I didn't discover Zager sooner. Denny is very honest and will never need to put someone elses name on a guitar just to sell it for a few thousand dollars more Like all the major guitar makers do.

Plays much easier.
What's your favorite part about this guitar?
Playability and just gorgeous
If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
much higher than what I paid for sure.

I have already recommended it to my brother and he bought one and loves it. I recommend it to everyone.
Additional comments:
My wife and I play southern/bluegrass gospel music and we play in a lot of churches and jams around NW Indiana and my Zager ZAD50 goes with me everywhere. I just love how it plays so easy and is just a beautiful guitar and sounds great. I would someday like to have a ZAD80 too. I'll put it on my wish list for Santa...ha. Anyway, I highly recommend the Zager guitars for anyone from a beginner to a pro. Can't go wrong.

I was playing a Michael Kelly Rose cut away that was custom setup by my luthier friend and has incredible action and tone quality. I would put this guitar up against any for playability and tone. truly a very nice instrument. I have played many guitars in all price ranges and my Kelly Rose held its own against all of them but a few. When my ZAD 80 arrived i was giddy as a child at Christmas. Absolutely Beautiful guitar. incredible workmanship and the finest playing guitar i ever had in my hands. Tones rich and full, perfect highs, Bass that you can feel. Great Volume with out over strumming and action so light i couldn't believe it. I played twice as long as I normally do with no discomfort so in comparison... there is none blows the Michael Kelly out of the water. My friends $5,000 Martin compares in tonal quality but when it comes to action and ease of play it does not compare either.... enough said?
What's your favorite part about this guitar?
Playability and tonal quality unsurpassed.
If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
$2000. plus
How would you rate customer support?
Personal and effortless 10 out of 10
Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
I do I will and will continue too. best value in guitars bar none = Zager

It plays "as they say" real EZ. Smooth, and was blown away by the rich sound.
What's your favorite part about this guitar?
Well, there is a lot to like. The finish and build are stunning. But I guess I would have to say the ease of playing for long periods without your fingers getting tired.
If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
Well over $2000.00 for sure

Very impressive, amazing communication, this company can teach many other companies a thing or two about great customer service!
Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
Absolutely I would and would be very proud to!
Additional comments:
Not much more I can say except it was packed really well and arrived exactly when they said it would. Their video support on the website is really well done and detailed. Denny is an amazing, patient teacher for sure. His reputation is priority number one, and no guitar will go out unless he approves it. I am very happy. Thanks...

How does this guitar compare with your old guitar, other guitars, or guitars you've tried in stores?
Ite is not as 'clunky' as my Ibanez classicial thin body electric, and holds a tune better. And ir is MUCH easier to play than my big Guild D-55.
What's your favorite part about this guitar?
The CE - cutaway electric - allows me to get way up the neck, and the OM - orchestra model - is 15% smaller, making for easier playing. The built in controls are nice, but the integrated tuner really makes for easy, accurate tuning.
If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
For an instrument this precise I would pay 50% - 100% more than I did.
How would you rate customer support?
Support is second to none. Classic underpromise and overdeliver. The free shipping got it to me 48 hours after I placed my order. Then customer support said the hardshell case was on backorder, but it arrived in a cardboard box inside a hardshell case. They had a prototype (improved) case with humidor and indicator they gave to me at no extra charge. Not to mention the extra set of strings, picks, documentation, and a signed concert picture.
Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
I would highly recommend the Zager family guitars - for this is a true family business - to anyone. I was instantly a better player because of the neck construction, custom string placement and the low, easy action. No buzzing. I compared it to my other guitars and I sounded much more professional.
Additional comments:
Did I mention this was a blem? That consisted of about 4 pinsized marks on the side near the jack. Even I cant see it unless the guitar is on its side and I am right on top of it. I am considering sending my $2500 Guild to Denny to see if he can do the Zager magic to it like he has to so many other high end guitars over the decades.

My first guitar was a Takamine Jasmine and the Zager is so much better and easier to play.
What's your favorite part about this guitar?
The ease of playing....the string pressure is so much nicer and takes so much less pressure to play which makes this an easier guitar to play for any amount of time, especially when learning to play and need to practice a lot. Sound quality is a big plus!
If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
At least over a $1,000 which it isn't.
How would you rate customer support?
Excellent, got my guitar only a few days after ordering and the on-line support is excellent. My questions were answered promptly.
Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
Yes definitely....it is so easy to play and has such a beautiful sound quality. I have friends that play Martins and they are definitely impressed with the quality of the sound and the ease of playing it; it's hard to get them to give it back to me! I am so happy to have this wonderful guitar! I also love this size.
Additional comments:
I believe anyone buying a Zager would be extremely pleased to own one as I have been.

How does this guitar compare with your old guitar, other guitars, or guitars you've tried in stores?
I have owned many different guitars including high end models from Martin, Takamine, and Ovation. I have played Martins and others in the stores. This Zager is a very nice, wonderful sounding guitar. It is much easier to play than any other guitar (with steel strings) I have held.This guitar just feels perfect in my hands.
What's your favorite part about this guitar?
What is my favorite part? The whole guitar is my favorite part. I just enjoy playing it. It sounds great, it looks great. It is a very sweet guitar that feels very good in my hands and sounds magical to my ears. It sounds great unplugged and it sounds great plugged in.
If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
This guitar could easily be sold for twice the price if it were sold in retail store. I would say somewhere around the $18-$1900 point would be very realistic. I have played some much more expensive guitars that do not sound or play as good as the Zager. This guitar proves a person can spend too much for a name on a guitar.
How would you rate customer support?
Customer support at Zager Guitar should be the model for customer support in America! I have always received prompt responses to my e-mail questions, doing business was very easy and seem to have a personal touch to the transaction. It is sad that other businesses seem to have lost the ability to really go out of their way to earn someone's business. Customer service with Zager guitar could not be any better in my opinion. I was very satisfied in doing business with them.
Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
Yes I would. I have had an outstanding experience. I found this website accidentally and learned about Zager guitars. it takes a certain amount of risk to buy something as personal as a guitar over the Internet. I have had a couple of negative experiences doing this on eBay. However, this company offers a money back guarantee and even agrees to pay for shipping both ways if I didn't like the guitar. I took a chance, I bought the guitar, and I have been very impressed with my purchase. I now own a guitar that appeals to my eyes, ears and let's not forget, hands! I can play this guitar for hours on end and not be sore. Because of this, I know I will progress faster in my knowledge and ability to play the guitar because of me not wanting to put this guitar down.
Additional comments:
For anyone who reads this testimonial, I am not working for this company, nor am I being compensated. I'm just a customer who took a chance on something I read on a website and researched what other people posted for about two years before buying a Zager guitar. An acoustic guitar is a very personal instrument. It has to feel good in your hands, it has to sound good, and you should get good value for your money regardless of who makes the guitar. From my own personal experiences, it is very easy to get into the brand name game. People will debate whether a Gibson is better than a Martin or a Martin is better than a Martin and the debates rage on. There is also pressure put on players b the big companies who pay the stars to play or endorse their products. I am not here to tell you that my Zager ZAD80 Electric Acoustic is greater than a 1957 Martin D 28 or a Gibson J500. That's just something that is too subjective and not realistic. What I am going to tell you is that it is easy to get caught in brand debate. I have been there and done that with some guitars purchases I have made in the past. My new Zager guitar is a high-quality instrument that stands on its own merits. It is beautiful to look at, it rings out like a harp, the action is the best action I have ever had in a guitar. It has high quality Grover tuners and a Fishman Tuner/ Eq/Preamp. I look forward to playing it every day. My fingers are never sore after playing it. I am proud to own this guitar and it also proves something at least to me: I didn't have to break the bank to get an outstanding guitar and a very reasonable price from a company that is very good to do business with. Had I purchased this guitar first, is highly probable that I would if not purchased the other guitars and saved myself a lot of money. I love my new Zager guitar. It is a keeper and seems to be "the" guitar I was looking for!

The ZAD80ce is honestly in a league of its own. One simply cannot purchase a guitar of this quality for the price Denny is asking. I own an Ovation Balladeer from way back. Although it has a lot of sentimental it simply can't compare with the ZAD80ce
What's your favorite part about this guitar?
My favorite part of this guitar is the sound. It's rich, deep and sweet to the ears.
If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?

Second to none.

I already have recommended the ZAD80ce as well as the others depending on the person I'm talking to.

I would really like to encourage everyone reading this review to check out Denny Zager's online guitar instruction. I've been playing for almost 30 years but there's no substitute for learning from a professional of Denny's caliber.
