Hi Denny: I wanted you to know that I purchased my first guitar from you more than two years ago (DM-1)and placed an order for another guitar yesterday. I ordered the Zager EZ-Play ZAD 50CE Sunburst. I've also subscribed to your on-line instructional system a while back. It has been great. Your string science was something I had been searching for a long time. It has enabled me to play something I never could, bar chords! More than that, I've also liked finger picking because it gives you the 'whole song.' Thanks again for making my guitar's action as low as possible. Your guitars have actually made my life a little better in the last 2 years because I have found a new lifelong hobby that makes me happy. This guitar is so easy to play and makes me even happier because it was such a deal compared to the Martin I was admiring at the music store for a couple months. Warm Regards from A Happy Zager Owner,

First of all, I want to thank you for all the extra time and attention you gave me during this purchase cycle. So nice to deal directly with the owners. In today's global market place 'it's priceless' Wow! What a lovely well made guitar this is. Easy play set up is for real and anyone will find this guitar a pleasure to play. The African Mahogany sides and back have nice deep rich grain. Sitka Spruce top was well matched. High gloss finish gives this guitar an expensive look and feel I just love. Over all attention to detail is high quality. I have shown my guitar to numerous friends.... Everyone was impressed with it's expensive look and full balanced sound. Electronic preamp Fishman 60 Clearwave works really great! Only used the tuner twice as the guitar has stayed in tune. My older brother Jim, who has played drums professionally as long as your father has played (55yrs) .... He had this to say; Wow the strings are nice and close to the threts... how much did this cost you.... What do think I paid for it i said.... You can't find something this nice under a $1.200.00. The Zager's offers the best online price - performance anywhere... Believe me I have shopped all over the internet.... Nothing comes close to The Zager guitars. I look forward to my online guitar training classes through with your father's. After not playing for 18 years, I have fell in love with playing all over again. Just can't stop picking up my new Zager guitar. (Thank you again) Yes.... I have already waxed my Ax with high quality guitar wax.... Funny thing... still look the same as it arrived. Your customer service is the best I have dealt with, very fast, effective and supportive... You get 5 stars here Dennis. Thank You, and please thank all the employee's who make this guitar package possible.

Dennis, I've been strumming and fingerpicking and it sounds great and is so easy to play. I usually play electric but I've played acoustic for years too. I needed an acoustic electric to play out at the gigs our band does. I'll use it at home unplugged and there is nothing like a nice acoustic. And for that price you can't go wrong. I was using a medium pick very gently strumming and playing single note runs and what struck me when I did some hammer ons was the ease of doing them on this neck. And the clarity of the note. Fingerpicking was nice too. I just gotta get more accustomed to it. I'll play this guitar a lot. The case is great too. Thank you again.

Zager Guitars, What can I possibly say that would describe my amazement when I first heard and played this work of art at QUAD Studios in Nashville, Tennessee while producing Doug Kershaw and The Kentucky Headhunters. After years of using Takamine, and Martin acoustic guitars to get the full sound that I needed, and many times having to double track the acoustic track in order to get it full sounding, in comes this (unknown to me) guitar. From the first take we all could hear the difference, the sound was rich, clean and more so it was that full sound all producers look for in the studio and more importantly it didn't need multi takes to get it!!!! It was from that moment on, that I swore I would never use any other acoustic guitar for recording again other than Zagers.

just thought I'd drop a line to let you know how astonished I was at the superb tone and quality of the 80-CE guitar I just received. I have played guitar (electric and acoustic) for about 20 years now, and have owned nearly 20 vintage and new guitars. The sound and build of this guitar - cedar top (wise choice), rosewood back and sides, abalone trim, binding - are all top quality. It holds up to my Gibson J-200 in tone, and is of comparable quality to the high end Martins I have played (and nearly bought - luckily I found you first). The 80CE is easily one of the best playing acoustics I have touched. My wife was not happy I had bought 'yet another' acoustic since I didn't really need one, until she heard the Zager; then she understood.

Dennis, Landon loves his new guitar. He has been playing it alot and his guitar teacher said it was a great guitar (we already knew). Last night we met Dave Matthews and he signed Landon's guitar right under your name. I have registered Landon on your site under my email address and we plan very soon to sign up for the online lessons. I like the guitar so much, I'll be buying one for myself soon (I have 3 guitars already, but I can't get over the action on this ZAD 50!) so Landon and I can play together. Thank you for your wonderful service and the amazing quality of your instruments. Best

I received the Zager 900CE today and it is a beautiful guitar, Iâ€™m not a professional guitar player but I enjoy picking out songs by ear. I have a total of 7 guitars that include a Gibson J185, a Martin DM acoustic, a 1970 Framus acoustic, a Sigma electric,( Greg Bennett design,) a Gretsch acoustic electric, and a Takamine acoustic electric. When I took the Zager 900CE out of that very nice hard case I gave it a quick tune up and was pleasantly surprised at how nicely and smoothly this guitar plays. The tone is wonderful and I love it. Looking at this guitar is like looking at a piece of art. It has been a pleasure doing business with you.Thank you and keep up the great work.

I finally got it today and I was soooooooooo happy about the playability and the sound....it sounds better than my friend $2000 guitar, and also another friends $1500 cort. And its so much lighter than my previous guitar...Fender GDC-200 SCE. But the most important thing...my fingers doesnt hurt, I dont need to press the strings too hard !!!! I cant really explain how good the guitar is since I am just a hobbyist, but by feeling this is by far the best guitar I have ever played......I just wish...I could get to know Zager guitars earlier. But seriously, for anyone who is skeptical, just buy it its risk free anyways! THANK YOU ZAGER!!! YOU ROCK!!!!

I have in my possession a tremendous instrument that I hope will last me a lifetime. I have picked up a number of much more expensive guitars, but none that surpass my Zager ZAD-80CE. It is a thing of beauty, but with a sound quality and ease of play that are second to none!

I just received my Zager Guitar and I felt obligated to let all posible buyers out there know that these Guitars are the REAL DEAL. With the 100% money back guarentee I felt like I had nothing to lose. My guitar instructer has been playing guitars and teaching professional guitar players for over 20 years. I had asked him about purchasing a new guitar and he recomended at the time a Martin D-28. When I brought my new guitar to my lesson this week, he was so amazed by the quality, the sound, and how easy it was to play. He said that he will now recomend the Zagar company to anybody in the market of purchasing a new guitar. In less than a week my quality of guitar playing has already improved. Save yourself the money and buy a $ 2,000 guitar for under a $ 1,000 with the case. What a great experiance it has been. Thank you so much!

a couple of weeks ago I spent some serious time at a National Guitar Center. I played all the top dollar Gibsons, Takamines, Yamahas, and Martins. Some , of course, were very nice guitars, but in all honesty, none of them sounded as nice ( or looked as nice ) as my new ZAD-80CE. You guys are the BEST, keep up the good work !

Greetings from Central Florida, I received my ZAD50CE, and I have to say it 'is' everything everyone raves about. The action is a pleasurable experience, light and easy, the sound is outstanding, as is the projection of sound from the instrument. Like others state, I have tried guitars of top quality in time, but nothing is near the pleasant, pleasing attributes of this guitar. The Zager guitar is head and shoulders above the rest. Thanks to all who brought it into being what it is. I love it!

I'm a veteran guitar player for over 35 years and I've never had an experience like this with a new guitar ease of playability right out of the box. It was even already tuned and kept its tune in transit! I own over 100 guitars in my collection, most of the acoustics are high-end Martins, Ovations, Yamahas, Takamines, etc. Some have been reworked at a high cost to fit my personal style for best action by highly respected luthiers in our area. I've just received my new Zager ZAD-50CE and have directly compared action with the best guitars I have, and I'm pleased to report the Zager is a hands-down winner! This guitar wasn't even personally fit to me. I'm amazed at the difference! Fast chord progressions are a snap, proving the spacing of the strings are ergonomically balanced to be complementary with human hand anatomy. Makes me wonder why other guitar manufacturers have missed the importance of ease of play for out of the box. The fit and finish is second to none. Its a truly a beautiful guitar to look at from any angle as well as very close up. No flaws anywhere and even the wood grain is perfect. The well-placed subdued abalone inlays are special touch, providing a distinctive appearance over other guitars The sound, whether you're plugged in or not, is also incredible and compares with my high-end Martins that cost me thousands more. The accurately balanced treble and bass assist with strumming or finger-picking to allow the player the ease of flexibility needed for the performance level-intended accents. I splurged and also got the hardcase with the humidifier - turns out to also be a good investment and one I would definitely recommend with the purchase of a Zager guitar. I'm very pleased with my investment in my Zager and am convinced this is really a first class company offering guitars that compare with the very best in the industry.

I am proud to own and play this Zager guitar. I just recently got into playing guitar at the age of 54. The ZBB has a rich deep sound and I can actually feel the resonance through the back of the guitar into my body. The first day I played it- just last week- I could not only feel this music going into me I noticed how much easier it is to play over my fist guitar, a G series Takamine made of flame maple, it has a bright sound, with not nearly as much bass response. In the few weeks I have been playing guitar I have visited two of our local shops for a national guitar chain and have picked up no less that 40 different guitars to see just how well they sound and how easy they are to play. Priced from $69.00 to $2600+. I am no expert but to my ears my ZBB plays easier and sounds just as good if not better than guitars in the $1000.00+ range. I won't mention all the big and small name guitars I have played but really I think I would have to spend well over $1500.00 to get this quality sound and then there were only a couple (very expensive) that I could feel the resonance through the back of the guitar and into my body and that had the base response of my ZBB. I studied them hard to really get the feel for each one and try to figure out why they play and sound like they do. It is only the very expensive ones that project the bass and then carry the sound through the guitar like my Zager Parlor does. As far as customer service goes I had a concern about my guitar and sent Dennis an email tonight late in the evening here in Ca and not only did I get one response back tonight but several with the invitation to keep asking questions if I needed to. And I got all this help even though I am the second owner of this guitar. I can see myself making music for many years to come with this guitar. A word about quality of workmanship, this is a well built guitar and the fit and finish is top notch. Yes I have plans to get a ZAD 50CE from you in the future to add to my list of guitars. And I would recommend you and your guitars to anyone in a heartbeat.

To everyone at Zager Guitars: I received my ZAD-50 two days ago and I am truly impressed. I admit I was a bit apprehensive about ordering a guitar online without being able to play the instrument beforehand. Wow, were my fears groundless! This is really a nice instrument. I was immediately struck with the guitar's appearance - the woodgrains are tight and uniform and the finish very attractive. I've been playing for 40 years and I bought the Zager to be my 'traveling' guitar. Right out of the case the Zager sounded terrific with excellent tone and good low-end 'punch.' I'm sure the sound will just improve as the guitar ages. I have played several Martins over the years and this ZAD-50 is so much easier to play. What a refreshing change to buy a guitar that I will not need to take to a technician to have the action lowered! Denny Sr.'s 'String Science' eliminates the need for that. The Zager is really a great value for the price. You have made me a very satisfied customer! Best regards,

Hello Dennis, I received the guitar today and what a suprise to see my new guitar with no dents or chips from shipping in the case! I have seen some nice guitars before, but not anything I could afford. I am totally thrilled with the quality of my new guitar. It is not a campfire guitar by any means. I am sitting here now enjoying my new fine easy playing guitar... With zero finger pain. What a delight. Again, thank you very much for getting me this brand new guitar, and what a pleasure dealing with you and your wonderful company. Yours truly,

Dennis, I am interested in another ZAD-80CE. I have purchased several from you. Primarily I have purchased the 50 model and given them to my nephews to encourage them to learn to play. I have enjoyed looking, showing, and playing your families guitars and would like to continue. Tell your father that I have watched most of his training videos and learned more from him then I learned from my mother who was a school music teacher most of her life. The first enjoyment I got when I got home from my trip was getting to play my Zager Guitars. I hope I can get another Zager guitar so I can personally use it to encourage another person close to me to play guitar. Thank you,

Hi Denny, I just wanted to thank you for my two Zager guitars. I have owned my Zager ZAD20 for one year and still love its bright tone, it really sings when I play up beat songs. I have owned my Zager 80 acoustic for over six months and it has really opened up and has the most beautiful deep, rich tone. Iâ€™m so glad that I own both of them. My father in law has owned a Gibson acoustic for over thirty years. When I let him try out my Zager 80 acoustic he said that in thirty years he has never found a guitar that even came close to his Gibson in tone and playability until now. He couldnâ€™t believe how rich its tone was and he said the action was perfect. When I told him what I paid for it he couldnâ€™t believe it. He said my guitar was far better than any guitar in the $2000 to $4000 price range. I just wanted to thank you again for making and selling such a fantastic product for such a reasonable price. I couldnâ€™t be happier with both my Zager Guitars.

Dennis - I received my Zager 50 model acoustic guitar a couple of months ago and it is beautiful. Even the case looks top notch. This guitar is much, much nicer than the one we got at the local guitar shop a couple of years ago which was so hard to play that I gave up and sold the thing. Let me tell you it feels so cool to really be playing now... and I contribute that to you! Like I said, I gave up guitar before because I thought it was just too hard for me. Little did I know there's people out there like you helping people like me. You make me feel great. I love my Zager guitar and will tell everybody about you guys. Thanks again, and thanks also for your help pre-purchase.

Hi Dennis, I received my dreadnought Zager ZAD50 guitar last week and I can't stop playing it since then, every afternoon, when I get home from work! In my personal opinion, the tonal quality, playability, and finish quality of this guitar is second to none at this price!! Im sure it is better than most of the high priced name brand guitars! Ive never heard of your guitar until I saw your site one day when I was searching for something affordable. I am so glad I bought one from you and I will certainly recommend this to my friends and family. Thank you so much for this great guitar!! I would also like to thank you for your prompt responses to my inquiries. More power to Zager Guitar!! sincerely,

It has been 2 years since I bought my Zager ZAD-80CE. As I was looking at the 6 guitars I now own including the Gretch Black Falcon, Les Paul, Ovations, and Takamine which I appreciate for each of their charactristics I felt compelled to send a note to you guys for inspiring me with a great guitar to go on to turn music into a major part of my life. The Zager is still the guitar I pick up first and as much as I love that guitar it is not for purely sentimental reasons. I have been fortunate enough to be associated with many guitarists far superior to myself in these last few years due to the sound stage that I constructed for locals to jam at and the few that I have allowed to play the Zager (including one of Prince's studio guiarists - he played it exclusively while recording tracks for a demo CD at my recording facility) have all agreed that it is truely a great guitar. My experience with Zager Guitars service and support and product quality convinced me that Zager Guitars is 'one of a kind'. That guitar was the perfect instrument for me as a beginner and is still the best as I develop as a guitarist. Your committment to complete quality is unique. I hope many others will have the opportunity to feel the gratitude that i do for you and your great company. Thank you!

Hi Denny, I finally got some time and wanted to drop you an e-mail. Well, I received my guitar a couple of days ago and much to my utter delight and surprise the intonation of this guitar is absolutely dead on! This is absolutely the best guitar I've ever owned or played. Even with the challenges I have with my extremely large hands it is definitely the best guitar I've come around. Anyway, I want to thank you and Denny Sr. for going the extra mile! I am currently considering buying my seven-year-old son a Zad15. I've also recommended you to my best friend of 45 years and I will continue to recommend you. I can't thank you enough,
