How does this guitar compare with your old guitar, other guitars, or guitars you've tried in stores?
Comparable to the best I have played in a combination of fidelity and ease of play. My old guitar is a Guild acoustic/electric and doesn't have near the playability or sound of my Zager.

What's your favorite part about this guitar?
My favorite part is the neck/fretboard. Excellent action and crafted for ease of play.

If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
$2,500

How would you rate customer support?
Excellent customer support. All questions have been promptly and accurately answered.

Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
Absolutely! In fact I have already "spread the word" by encouraging my guitar playing friend to check out the web site. I will only recommend a product I believe in and trust.

Additional comments:
I have played for quite a few years and actually put down my guitar for most of the past 10 years. I work in a high stress enviromnet and considered that picking up the guitar and playing again could provide some needed relaxation. I was not satisfied with the sound and action of my old guitar and began researching the internet for alternatives that wouldn't break the bank. The result was my purchase of a ZAD-80CE which has everything I was looking for in a guitar with the added bonus of excellent craftsmanship at a reasonable price. I am a proud owner and am enjoying playing as never before.

I have owned Takamine, Gibson, Martin, Yamaha,Ovation and Seagulls along with a few others. The playability of this guitar beats all others I have owned. I bought a Zad50CE a couple of years ago, and found myself picking it up and leaving the others. (the others were a Martin and Seagull) I recently bought a Zad80CE and found it to be of such superior quality that I am selling everything else, and moving only to Zagers

What's your favorite part about this guitar?
This is a toss up. Playability, or sound. They are clear, bright and the sustain is second to none.

If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
I would expect the price of the 80CE to be in the $1700-$2300 range

How would you rate customer support?
Excellent, I have sent emails that were responded to within minutes.

Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
Without a doubt, Save yourself a lot of pain, both in the wallet and with your fingers!

Additional comments:
My Zad50CE is destined to be the road guitar, as I travel a lot and enjoy taking a guitar with me. They are both beautiful guitars. When I took a 50CE to a shop to show a friend, everyone there wanted a little time on it. I wouldn't recommend anything else for any level of player.

This is the only accoustic I have ever played that did not kill my fingers after a few minutes. It came in around 1PM today and I played it for 3 hours. Then I called one of my buddies over tonight and we played it for another 2 hours and my fingers are still good for more.. I normally play a Gretsch Country Classic that frets like a dream so my fingers are not real tough, and after several hours on the Zager my fingers are still good. Great Guitar and the other folks In the Band will get a chance to try it out in 2 days. Get ready for more orders from some of them. I picked on a new Martin one of the girls bought 2 weeks ago for about 10 mins. and my fingers started barking so this girl id in for a surprise when she plays my Zager.

What's your favorite part about this guitar?
How easy it is on my fingers and the great sound. Plus it is beautiful and crafted to perfection

If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
I played a $3500 Martin 2 weeks ago and I would not even think of trading my Zager for the Martin. If I didn't know the price and just went by the sound, craftsmanship and ease of play I would Guess over $3000

How would you rate customer support?
Customer support is Great, Response to calls and service is almost immediate

Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
I alredy have and will continue to . I love this Guitar and especially its ease on my fingers and still with that great sound and finish. The folks in my Band will be ordering Zagers after they get a chance to play it.

Additional comments:
I love my Gretsch 6122a Country Classic but...My Zager completes the whole package. Now I have the best of both sounds with these two and won't be buying another guitar

I have a friend with a $4000 Martin bought about 10 years ago that doesn't look as good as my ZAD80CE. I like the sound of my ZAD80CE (bought in 5006) just as much as his Martin and the ZAD was only one fourth the price. I can't tell any difference in sound except that the Martin plays a little louder with the thicker strings my friend uses on it. I can not justify $3000 more for a guitar that sounds the same. And, the Martin has the much sought after Brazilian Rosewood back and sides. Again, the playability of the ZAD is superior and I can't tell any difference in tone. That makes the ZAGER a better deal in my book.

What's your favorite part about this guitar?
Ease of playing, the sound, the fit and finish in that order.

If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
$2500 - $3500 new at a retail guitar store

How would you rate customer support?
I can't say enough good things about Zager service. Doing business with ZAGER GUITARS is a pleasure. Outstanding fast support and courtesy is what you get with ZAGER. They have shown me repeatedly that they honor the 100% return policy that is stated in the website. True story - The first guitar I received in 5006 had a slight flaw on the finish that I believe happened in shipping. I contacted Dennis Jr and he immediately responded without question providing me with a return prepaid shipping label and said to keep the extra goodies that came with the guitar (shirt, strings, pictures, picks, etc). He immediately sent a replacement guitar that I have to say is truly beautiful. The grain direction, the finish, the setup are all perfect! I love this guitar! And another set of goodies came with it! I play a lot in my shop which is quite a bit colder than my house. I did not want to keep exposing the ZAD80CE (a full size) to the temperature fluctuations going in and out of the house so I decided that I wanted a second guitar to just keep in the house. I ordered a second, smaller guitar from Zager, a Parlor Mahogony. When it arrived (in just 5 days from Nebraska to Seattle) I found that I did not like the shortened neck that is standard on the Parlor/Travel series. I contacted Dennis Jr and once again, he immediately responded without question providing me with a return prepaid shipping label and again said to keep the extra goodies that came with it. I asked Dennis to replace the Parlor with a ZAD80CEOM Orchestra Model. Dennis sent the more expensive replacement out before I even posted the Parlor back to him. The OM is on it's way to me now and the Parlor is just going to UPS today! Really, that's good service. No questions asked. Just answers. Well done ZAGER GUITARS!

Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
Already have recommended it, repeatedly. It is the best value that I have found for a guitar. One guy I recommended to bought a ZAD50CE based on the recommendation. He has many guitars and the ZAGER is one of his favorites because of the playability. The "string science" setup is the frosting on top of the cake and finishes making my ZAD80CE the superb instument that it is. Playability of this guitar can not be surpassed without an experienced luthier doing a lot of work. That PROFESSIONAL setup is standard and comes included with the ZAGER.

Additional comments:
A BIG sincere THANKS to ZAGER for their honesty, speedy service, and for such a fine product at a very fair price!

It is easier to play, and sounds great. I have a guitar that I bought many years ago, which doesn't play as easy.

What's your favorite part about this guitar?
The playability, fit and finish is excelant, and it's pretty too.

If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
I would guess about 995.00. I was looking at Martins on the internet, and their low end was under 2000.00.

How would you rate customer support?
Good, so far I haven't needed much.

Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
Yes and I have already done that several times. I gave your web to several people, but I don't know if it has helped you.

Additional comments:
Everone that has seen my guitar likes the look of ir. I play with a group at Veterans Home, nursing home, and our Jackson Senior center about 6 times per month.

Like night and day, compared to my previous guitar. The tone and playability are equal or superior to almost any I have tried in stores. This is a great guitar at any price point!

What's your favorite part about this guitar?
Playability would have to be the most endearing feature. Although, the sound and great looks are top notch.

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?
A+

Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
I have, and others have purchased as well. The way Zagers do business, it's a no-lose proposition.

Additional comments:
I may never need another guitar, but if I do, it will most assuredly be from Zager Guitar.

I own a 30 year old Japanese Dixon, and have owned a vintage Kay. Also have tried out many guitars of every brand in my search to get the right guitar. I was looking at top of the line Martins, ovations, Gibson, etc. New and vintage models and the prices ranged from 2,400 to several thousand dollars. I can honestly say that there was not a single guitar I tried that played any easier or sounded better than my Zager.

What's your favorite part about this guitar?
Parts. I cannot pick just one, its playability is first, second is the sound, and on top of it all it is absolutly beautiful. It also helps that everyone that sees and plays it turns green with envy.

If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
4,500.00

How would you rate customer support?
Unbelievable. I have never dealt with any company who not only is as customer minded but is as personally involved as Zager guitars. I could not be happier and tell everyone about the care, and attention that was paid to my questions and purchase. Not only before the sale but after.

Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
Absolutly!!! There is not a better guitar for the money anywhere and the customer relations are fabulous.

Additional comments:
I spend time everyday playing my guitar. Not only is it very relaxing but it sounds amazing and I can play for hours without it hurting my hands. I feel like the luckiest guy in the world for having found the link to Denny's site and making one of his guitar's mine. I had never seen or played one of his guitars, and am a firm believer in the old addage if it sounds to good to be true it probably is, but there were so many great reviews of his guitars I took the chance and boy am I glad I did. I am saving now to get the ZAD 900CE and I can hardly wait!

The action is superb, comparable with that on my Gibson Les Paul (I'd have to be honest if pressed and state that the Les Paul's action is better, but not by much, and then, it would also be many times more expensive to buy new). The tone is more pleasant, mellow yet bright, than my old guitar

What's your favorite part about this guitar?
The action! Barre chords are easy now!

If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
Pass - I have no idea about guitar prices, since I don't shop for them often. I feel the price I paid for this guitar was very reasonable, though

How would you rate customer support?
Excellent: I made a typo in my mailing address, and there was a mixup on the courier's part, which customer support alerted me to and put right immediately. As this was a Christmas gift, and in the 7 days before Christmas, I was very grateful they took so much time to ensure the guitar arrived where it should

Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
Yes I would, for tone, playability, looks (it's gorgeous!) and affordability

Additional comments:
Pity Zager don't ship overseas. Plenty of people would understand there's an extra cost and be willing to pay it, I'm sure.

I have an Ovation that I have had for over 30 years, a Martin that I have had for over 45 years, and a 3/4 size guitar from Fender. I just bought a Zager trevel model, that is the exact same size as the small fender. I have been looking for another small guitar to travel with and at the same time did not want to sacrifice tone quality. I liked the small Fender, but it lacked a lot in tone quality and finish. To my surprise, the travel Zager guitar beat the tone, finsh and string spacing on the Fender and Ovation. Trying to compare with the old Martin is not a good comparison as it it was made in 1913 and has a number of major cracks in it. I have owned a slew of various guitars over the years including Washburn, Gibson, and other Fender models. I have to say this little travel Zager is going to be a keeper.

What's your favorite part about this guitar?
Tone and string spacing.

If you didn't know the price of this guitar what would you estimate the price to be?
From just the finish it would certainly appear to be a guitar that would be a lot more than the current price...by at least several hundred dollars.

How would you rate customer support?
Jill was quick to answer all the questins I had and keep me up to date on shipping etc...first class.

Would you recommend this guitar to others…if so why?
YES...its really hard to find a well made product these days at a fair price....

Fun little guitar to play.....looking now at the Zager Parlor...
