- Full Size, Solid Sitka Spruce/Indian Rosewood, maple binding, abalone and pearl inlay.
- Fishman AURA Sound Imaging system (highest rated in the USA)
- Our deepest, richest sounding guitar…15% more power than our 80 Series.
- Buyers of the 900 are coming from Martin D45, Taylor 9, Gibson Hummingbird
If you demand the best this is it. When we have a customer come into the shop with a $5000+ acoustic who’s looking for that type of quality and sound, but with easier playability, the 900 is the only guitar we go to. Unlike our 20 and 50 Series guitars Mr. Zager uses a special bracing system on the 900 that allows the face to move half a millimeter more giving it more projection and power. When you hit a string on the 900 you feel it resonate through your gut. There’s very few guitars today that can do this, especially new guitars, and when you find one it’s usually the price of a small car. Read more
Zager Pro Series guitars play a easier and sound a more powerful than our regular series instruments. The woods are aged longer. The finish is applied thinner so the sound board moves half a millimeter more when the strings are hit providing a deeper bass response. Each piece of abalone and pearl is laid by hand in combination with gold Grover tuners that pop to the eye. Most customers buying our 900 Series are touring artists and veteran musicians coming from high level Martin, Taylor, Santa Cruz and Gibson. Denny did extensive testing in designing the 900 and sent it to veteran players and artists around the world who put it up against the finest guitars made. Pros say the 900 outperforms guitars at twice its price (sometimes more), but playability is easier and price is less than half since you’re buying direct from our workshop in Lincoln, Nebraska versus retail stores.
Denny wanted only the finest electronics system for the 900 series so he called Bob Fishman at world renowned “Fishman Transducers.” Fishman’s new Aura Digital Sound Imaging System allows you to download thousands of sound images directly from the Fishman online library that have been professionally mixed in Fishmans multi-million dollar recording studios. You can select from images mixed specifically for your Zager as well as thousands of others depending on the sound you’re looking for. Denny used to spend countless hours in studio time dialing in the perfect sound for his guitars. Fishman’s Aura Image Gallery Software (included) does this for you by allowing you to select from thousands of images in their online library that will give you the sound you want no matter what you’re looking for, and downloading them onto your guitar via USB cable. Read the reviews, talk to the pros, and you will see this system dominates every guitar electronics package on the market today.
Be sure to read artist comments and magazine reviews on the 900 as it consistently rates in the top 5% of acoustics made world wide. 100% money back guarantee including shipping fees both ways. It’s a lifetime instrument so it comes with a lifetime warranty. Truly a work of art with a stunning sound that will get better year after year.

Features
 | Dreadnought Size Dimensions Height: 41 inchesBox length: 20 inches Waist: 11 inches Widest bout: 15.5 inches Depth: 4.75 inches Scale length: 25.5 inches |
 | Venetian Cutaway Style A "Venetian Cutaway" is a guitar that has a section of the body "cut away" by the neck which makes it easier to slide your hand down low to reach chords near the sound hole. Denny braces the cutaways a little differently then his full box guitars so sound quality matches. If you’re a player that spends a lot of time on that part of the neck a cutaway box is invaluable. |
 | Grade A Sitka Spruce Top Top Sitka which is known for its strength and durability comes from the Northern coast of British Columbia up into Alaska. It tends to have a warm pinkish/tan hue to it. Spruce offers a tight, punchy low end response with great projection. Players who demand a powerful sound with tons of projection will hear the benefit of a Sitka spruce top. Used on only the highest quality acoustic guitars in the world. |
See full build sheet
 | Indian Rosewood 900CE Back-sides One of the most popular and traditional guitar woods of all time. Where mahogany lends itself to the midrange, rosewoods sonic profile is deeper in the low end. Not to take anything away from mahogany as many players will find it difficult to tell them apart, but the dedicated ear will notice a deeper, richer, sweeter tone coming from a rosewood guitar. |
 | Hand Bent Figured Maple Binding Figured Maple binding is not only beautiful to look at but it also protects your guitar from bumps and nicks in daily use. Found generally on guitars exceeding the $2000+ price point. |
 | Mahogany with Inlay Neck Mahogany—one of the most popular tone woods used on acoustic guitars for the last 50 years. Complete with hand laid contrast inlay. |
 | Indian Rosewood Headstock Indian rosewood is commonly found on high-end guitars. This wood is heavier and more dense than mahogany and also is very stable and resonant. East Indian Rosewood is dark brown with sometimes purple-brown streaks giving a pleasant figure. The guitar head stock configuration is a registered trademark and is used under license from C.F. Martin & Co. Inc. of Nazareth, Pennsylvania, USA. |
 | Zager Design (Hand Scalloped) Bracework The technique of scalloping or shaving the braces can have a huge impact on the power and tone of an acoustic guitar. By shaving or reducing the thickness of the brace, it becomes more flexible and therefore lets the top move more freely. When done by a Master Luthier the brace maintains its structural integrity, while making the top more efficient. The result is faster attack, longer sustain, more bass, more power, and an overall improvement in the whole tone system. |
 | Full Abalone Inlay Inlay Abalone inlay is found on only the highest quality guitars. Laid by hand one piece at a time, the color and translucence of each piece changes with different amounts of light. Not only does it add to the overall look of your guitar, but it also adds to the value. Our 900 Pro Series guitars have an inlay rosette around the sound hole in combination with inlay around the entire face as well as small cross fret markers going up the fret board |
 | Pearl Cross Fret-markers Used on only the highest quality guitars. Laid by hand on the fret board one piece at a time. It's a very tedious, time consuming process but the results are breathtaking |
 | Figured Maple Inlay Back-detail This accent matches the guitars figured binding and abalone inlay perfectly to give it that extra expensive look of a pro series guitar. Laid by hand one piece at a time. Adds to the overall beauty and sets off the color of the wood. Found on only the highest quality guitars in the world. |
 | High Gloss Finish High-gloss finish provides excellent protection but at the same time is extremely light and elastic. This is a crucial point in both the sound of the guitar and its ability to age—which is what makes a guitar sound better year after year. A thick finish muffles a guitar's vibration and blocks aging. |
 | Custom Adjustment Setting Truss-rod Denny designs his guitars with a truss rod adjustment setting that allows you to dial in your guitar to your particular playing style. In this way if you're a heavy handed player you can set the action higher so you can "get on it" a little for more power, and if you're lighter handed touch player you can dial in the action low so you can move faster and play longer with less fatigue. |
 | 2023 Fishman Aura Pro Electronics Denny wanted only the finest electronics system for the 900 series so he called Larry Fishman at world renowned "Fishman Transducers." Fishman's new Aura digital imaging system allows you to plug into your computer and download hundreds of sound images that have been professionally mixed in Fishmans pro recording studios. You can select from images mixed specifically for your Zager, or hundreds of others depending on the sound you’re looking for. Denny used to spend countless hours in studio time dialing in the perfect sound for his guitars. Fishmans new imaging system does this for you by allowing you to select from images online that will give you the sound you want no matter what you're looking for. Read the reviews, talk to the pros, and you will see this system dominates every guitar electronics package on the market today. |
| Genuine Fishman Aura Built-in-automatic-tuner Ask any pro who makes the finest guitar electronics systems in the world and 9 out of 10 will say Fishman. An electronic tuner allows you to tune your guitar in a fraction of the time it takes using conventional tuning methods. Simply hit a string and the LCD indicator guides you into perfect pitch. A red and green light instantly lets you know when the tune is dead on. This is a very important tool for the new player who is trying to develop and train their ear for perfect pitch. It's also helps the professional player who wants to get in perfect tune fast. |
| Genuine Fishman Aura Built-in-equalizer Fishman equalizers are the highest quality equalizers used in acoustic guitars today. The equalizer is an electronic unit that controls the sound and volume when plugged into an amplifier or PA system. There are adjustments for highs, mids, lows, and presence. Fishman EQ's are used exclusively on high end acoustics by artists such as Bob Dylan, Paul McCartney, Alan Jackson and Aerosmith to name just a few |
 | Genuine Grover (gold) Tuning-machines Genuine Grover sealed tuning machines are found on only the finest guitars made. Look at tuners on $2500+ acoustics and you will see the majority have "Grovers." Unlike open gear tuners where the tuning mechanism is exposed, Grover sealed tuners contain a lubricant that keep the tuning mechanism sealed air-tight so the gears turn smooth and continue to for the life of your instrument. Lifetime warranty. If you have a tuner go bad we'll replace it free of charge for life. |
 | Bone Hand Carved Nut Denny hand carves his nuts from bone for each guitar so the strings are set lower with custom spacing. Lower string heights make it easier to press down to form chords and it also increases finger speed. Custom spacing allows you to move faster with less buzzes, mutes, and rattles because you’re no longer bumping adjacent strings. Custom string spacing makes it easier for all hands sizes big and small. Lifetime warranty. Break a nut and we'll replace it free of charge for life |
 | Tusq Hand Carved Saddle Denny hand carves each saddle for each individual guitar. Denny also adjusts the intonation settings to bring the guitar harmonically in balance with itself. This not only makes your guitar easier to play, but it also makes it sound more powerful. Customers say our guitars fall into tune easier and stay in tune longer...this is one of the reasons why. Denny uses only genuine "Tusq" brand saddles on his guitars which you generally only find on higher dollar acoustics . Lifetime warranty. Break a saddle and we'll replace it free of charge for life. |
 | Zager Custom Lights Strings Zager custom strings are designed by Denny exclusively for his Guitars. We have customers using all brands and gauges of strings on our guitars with excellent results (Elixir, Martin, Fender, Gibson, D'addario) but these are the strings our customers seem to like the most on our guitars. Hand wound daily in our shop in Lincoln, Nebraska. |
 | Zager Soft Touch (Hand Filed) Frets Denny hand files each fret one at a time on every guitar that leaves our shop. By filing the frets Denny achieves two important things. When sliding up and down the neck your fingers will no longer get irritated and sore and you won't suffer from what we call "String Bite" and overall finger fatigue. Secondly, when you file the frets by hand each fret will have the same uniform height. 9 times out of 10 when you have a buzzing string it has nothing to with your playing, it’s because you have a guitar with a fret that’s sitting away from the fret board hitting a string. |
 | Lifetime Warranty Our warranty is simple. Lifetime on all guitars. A quality guitar should be made to last a lifetime and if it doesn't it wasn't a quality guitar to begin with. |

How does this guitar compare with your old guitar, other guitars, or guitars you've tried in stores?
I have a older Marlboro Martin, The Zager 50 is so much easeir to play . The sound of the Zager 50 is comparable to the Martin 28 . I have played a Martin and i prefer the sound of the Zad 50 though.
What's your favorite part about this guitar?
The best part of the Zad 50 is how easy it is to play as well as the quality and workmanship that goes in to the Zad 50.
If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
I have been shopping for a new guitar for some time and if i was to see a Zad 20 in a music store I would experct to pay well over $1500.00
How would you rate customer support?
Dennis was great to answer all my questions and he was able to do this with in minutes.
Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
I would recommend the Zad 50 to any and all of my friends. The quality that goes into the Zager guitars is outstanding.
Additional comments:
I have always wanted a good quality guitar, Now I Have One. In time if i upgrade to a Zad 5o or 80. I will still keep my Zad 50 Sunburst it is a work of art.

I haven't had time to try my Guild guitar yet and I just received the ZAD50 yesterday
What's your favorite part about this guitar?
I love everything about this guitar as it is a beauty and knowing that it will be easier to play without getting sore fingers is a plus as I type at work and I can't afford to have sore fingers. I really can't believe you can get a good quality guitar for the price that they're asking. Unbelievable.
If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
Just from looking and comparing guitars on Ebay and other guitar websites, I would say around $1200-$1500.
How would you rate customer support?
Zager's customer service is outstanding. I have never dealt with any customer service as good as theirs. They are so friendly, very helpful and get back to you right away.
Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
I would definitely recommend the Zager guitar to anyone because of the great price for a quality guitar and because it is a EZ play guitar.
Additional comments:
I can't believe what a wonderful experience it was to purchase my guitar and case from Zager Guitars. I wish I would have found them sooner.

My Zager allows me to play clear chords. It was virtually impossible to play clear chords with my original guitar. In addition, my Zager guitar is definitely richer looking and sounds better.
What's your favorite part about this guitar?
Although this guitar looks and sounds fantastic, my favorite part is that I can now play clear chords relatively easily.
If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
I really can't say because I didn't shop other brands; however, numerous reviewers say Zager guitars compare to those costing several times more.
How would you rate customer support?
Customer support is fantastic! Dennis responded very fast to my emails and Denny's Help Videos are very informative. I've learned a lot already.
Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
Yes, I will definitely recommend Zager guitars to others because they are easy to play and look and sound fantastic.

How does this guitar compare with your old guitar, other guitars, or guitars you've tried in stores?
Very favorably. It sounds better than any other guitar I have owned that cost less than $1,000. I was particularly impressed with the level of fit and finish for a sub $500 guitar. It looks as good as anything I have seen, played, or handled by ANY manufacturer costing less than $1,000.
What's your favorite part about this guitar?
Without a doubt the tonal quality of the instrument. It gives off a crisp clean tone with well rounded range. It is also the easiest guitar I have played in a long time. The action is fantastic and I find that I can play it longer and faster than my other guitars.
If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
$900.00 or more.
How would you rate customer support?
Very good. Dennis Jr. was very responsive to e-mails and questions. I usually got a reply within an hour or two. He was also helpful in answering questions about the set up of the instrument and accessories available with the guitar.
Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
Absolutely. I bought this guitar based on the many favorable reviews I read on the internet, hoping that if it were 75% of what people were stating, it would be a bargain. I am happy to say that it has been everything I had expected and have yet to find a real gripe with this guitar. My only criticism, as small as it may be, is that the hygrometer (that comes included with the purchase of the Zager hard case)is not permanatly mounted in the case. It arrived laying loose in the accessory compartment of the case. I would have liked to have seen it embedded into the lining of the case.
Additional comments:
My 12 year old son loves playing this guitar so much that I may actually have to consider buying another one and giving him this one. Perhaps a ZAD 50 or ZAD 80 is in the future.

I have many guitars including 5 acoustics. My favourite two are Gibson J160e for general acoustic flatpicking and an Ayers AS for sweeter fingerpicking style. Both these are great guitars for what they do but I just got tempted for something new. Since getting the Zager I must say that the action on the Zager is lower and much easier on the hand than the J160e all the way up the neck and much zingier than the Gibson. The Zager on fingericking is also good way up to the 12th fret still keeping a decent volume. It's a different type of guitar to the Ayers AS which has a much wider neck than a normal acoustic so the sounds are quite different, the Zager being powerful and projecting with a pick, whereas the Ayers is more for sweet finger style. The Zager is still however for the price is well up there in construction, looks and sound for the money. I really cannot believe the low smooth action all the way up the neck. I have tried some really big name acoustics in local shops and I could not justify paying £1500 plus to own a M****n or a G***d when they are not as comforable to play, nor are the sounds significantly better. ( overall sound being subjective and personal anyway ) Zager is as good as anything I've tried whether acoustically or amp'd up thru the pickup.
What's your favorite part about this guitar?
Apart from the looks and the excellent sound that comes out this thing, I am really pleased aboout the action and how easy it plays. Maybe it in my head but I do feel my chord changes have become cleaner and I've checked all my other dreads and I'm sure there is a slightly wider string spacing on the Zager at the nut,??. I;m convinced this does help with achieving cleaner notes.
If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
If this guitar were hanging on a wall in a guitar shop I'm convinced it would be in the high end section beside the big names not in the mid price section where the price point actually is. Buying direct obviously avoids a retailers additional profit and taxes so considering this I really have got a high end guitar for a bargain price.
How would you rate customer support?
Emails back and forth between myself and Dennis Jr before I made the decision to buy were real friendly, and gave me confidence that I was a one to one customer. Questions were answered, special shipping was costed back to UK and I was invoiced personally to arrange. Quick and simple but with a personal touch gave me the confidence to buy from USA to UK.
Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
Its a great looking, great sounding and very, very easy guitar to play. The neck has obviously been well designed, well set up and made very playable. The whole sale process had that bit of TLC from people that are in the business of selling you their product , their name and their reputation. All too rare nowadays.
Additional comments:
Glad I found myself doing some research on 'all guitar makers' to have got all the way through to the lette 'Z' and to have come across Zager. It was meant to be !!!!!

My new Zager ZAD50E Sunburst guitar is noticeably more playable than my vintage Washburn given its amazing action and relatively narrow neck. The tone easily rivals my vintage Gibson.
What's your favorite part about this guitar?
My favorite part is the neck.
If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
I would estimate the price to be in the $1200.00 to $1800.00 price range.
How would you rate customer support?
I would rate the customer support a 10 out of 10, especially since I mistakenly ordered the wrong model initially, but the Zager guitar company paid for my return shipment cost of the first guitar even though the mistake was mine, not Zager's.
Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
Yes. It's a screamin good deal.
Additional comments:
I greatly appreciate the personal touch in this guitar purchase from Dennis Zager and his family owned company.

No comparison. It's setup just the way I would have done it had I the skills and know how. And the sound is incredible. Bright and full - abundant musicality. I've owned Gibsons and Martins before and nothing outshines this.
What's your favorite part about this guitar?
Well, it arrived a day before DJ said it would which was a great surprise. And then it just smells great coming out of the case. It gleams. It's just so cool to have the built in tuner and then it's ready to go as if I has been breaking it in for years.
If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
Donno how to guess this one. But at least three times what I paid, if not much more. Really, this is not BS. It's a great feeling axe that looks and sounds perfect. Just wish I were a better player - but now I have even more reason to get back to playing.
How would you rate customer support?
Haven't needed it. But Jr has been right there with every question. I haven't had to wait long for an email answer.
Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
Absolutely. No hype or BS about it. Just a fantastically player friendly instrument that looks and sounds wonderful.

My new ZAD80CE is the best playing guitar I've ever touched in my 45+ years of playing. The fit and finish are outstanding - second to none.
What's your favorite part about this guitar?
It is truly the easiest guitar to play that I've had in my hands. My fingers were hurting at first because I was using the same pressure that I've used on my other guitars. You have to relax and accept the fact that it is not going to be difficult to depress the strings. What a great feeling! Then you see what a guitar is supposed to feel like.
If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
$3,000+

These folks appear to redefine "customer support," two words that usually make me cringe. I have been treated like family, even though I have made a pest of myself.
Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
YES. I was a Yairi disciple. My favorite '82 Yairi (bouht new) was stolen, and I stumbled onto this site when looking for a similar, vintage replacement Yairi. I saw the sample video lessons and knew that I may well have found the "true path" to my musical growth. I now have the guitar in my hands, and I can tell you that Zager is the real thing, guitars and system. I will soon get another Zager as a back-up. Who knows? Somebody may steal my favorite guitar.
Additional comments:
If I had had this guitar when I was 12 years old instead of that old Kay arch-top, I know that I would be a much better player today than I am. If I had had the system, too, I would already be the player that I want to be. Thank you, Denny and Dennis!

I have 1991 Ovation and a 5003 Takamine, both electro-acoustic. Both are good guitars and I will still love playing them, but it is the sound quality and volume of the sound that makes the ZAD900ce stand out.
What's your favorite part about this guitar?
Early days and still finding out, but so far the ease of playing, and low string action. The acoustic sound is exceptional.
If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
£1200 ($1900)
How would you rate customer support?
This is where this company stands out. I live in Scotland, and although I liked the guitars I saw on the website, I was wary of shipping all the way from the USA. I needn't have been. I made an initial e-mail enquiry and got an immediate reply form Dennis Zager Jnr. He reassured me about shipping abroad and walked me through my purchase. The whole experience was quick, efficient and painless, and the added reassurance of a lifetime guarantee is exceptional.
Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
Yes. The whole package is exceptional. The ZAD900ce is a quality guitar at a very reasonable price. If you are looking for a guitar I would certainly recommend the Zager brand. Go on give it a go, you won't be sorry...I'm not.
Additional comments:
I've been playing guitar now for about 40 years and have played several models, favouring my Ovation above all so far for its low action, narrow fretboard and ease of playing. The Ovation will always have a place in my heart, but I'm enjoying my ZAD900ce and I'm sure it will mature into a wonderful playing instrument.

They told me how to fix it myself and also pointed me to videos to help as well.

I have a Martin D-41, made in 1973. It has been my instrument of choice for all these yearas. The Zager ZAD80 is a close resemblence to the Martin D-35 in style, tone and playability. I also have a NMI 1976 vintage, however, there is not comparison between this guitar and the Zager.
What's your favorite part about this guitar?
I must say, ease of playing. When I recieved this guitar, I opened it, tuned the b string and played it for 2 hours sraight. Absolutely, playability is my favorite part however there are many other great things about this instrument.
If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
I would place the price of this instrument in $2500-$3000 range

I have worked on the phone and via email with Zager Guitars and I must say I was always assured that the most important thing to Zager was that I had the right guitar and that I was completely satisfied with their products. I am.

I first heard the song 2525 on the FM channel 1969 in the jungle of Pleiku. My English was not good enough to understand everything...but later on...my English has been improved and I start to understand what was the philosophy of the song..later in life, after searching (35 years) and involved with technology and I find out Dan was ahead of his time! ..I'm sure Dan builded his guitar with "the Love of music"...Thank you!

My English was not good enough to understand everything...but later on...my English has been improved and I start to understand what was the philosophy of the song..later in life, after searching (35 years) and involved with technology and I find out Dan was ahead of his time! ..I'm sure Dan builded his guitar with "the Love of music"...Thank you!
