08/05/2007 Hi, Dennis,
I wanted to give you some feedback on my Zager ZAD-50CE, now that I've had it for about three weeks.
I looked at a lot of guitars before I bought the Zager. I considered Seagulls and less expensive Martins and Alvarezes. All of them are high-quality guitars with a solid history of good workmanship. I had an Alvarez Yairi about 20 years ago that has been my frame of reference for the sound and quality I wanted -- great resonance covering the range from lows to highs -- the Yairi just rang. I would have purchased another, but their prices are now way out of my budget. So after much looking, and taking up salespeople's time in guitar shops in the Seattle area, I picked the Zager -- not without some trepidation, though.

08/03/2007 I love my new Zad80CE. It is almost as effortless to play as my Ibanez George Benson electric!
|
 |
08/02/2007 My Buddy, Jeff Rogers, just bought a black ZAD 50CE and he loves it!! He asked me about acoustic guitars. I told him about Martins and Taylor, and the Masterbilts and how I was researching them, etc. I mentioned your guitars to him because I told him that this is the way I am going to go. He beat me to the punch and took the plunge. |

07/30/2007 Dear Dennis,
UPS Showed up at 7PM and the lady driver was curious as to what the large box contained so I told her all about you and I hadn't seen the guitar yet! It so happens she wants to get her grandson started on guitar and I told her I thought your web site was a good place to start. Some 15 minutes later I was playing the guitar and I must confess that all you said on your web site is true. I've been playing for 50 years off and on and here lately mostly off. I had no trouble with fingering even after a very long lay off and the guitar has a wonderful tone for not being top of the line. I needed a kick start to get back to playing and I think this is it. Yours, |
 |
07/30/2007 Denny,
I finally got home and had the opportunity to inspect and play my new Zager. I really do love this guitar. It's playability and sound are second to none. It is everything you said it was and so much more. Thanks! I know I'll enjoy it for many years to come. |
 |
07/30/2007 Hi Dennis,
Received my guitar today in A-1 condition.Couldn't wait to get it out of the box.By the weight of the case with the guitar in it at first thought I'd need a horse to help carry it around (I'm in a wheelchair) That case sure is well built.The guitar has a beautiful tone to it.Now all I have to do is callus up my fingers as its been more than fifteen years since I've played.
Thanks again for such a beautiful instrument. Only took 3 days to get here! |

07/27/2007 To Denny Zager:
I must say that my hopes and expectations may have been too high, but I read tons of magazine reviews and testimonmials from ecstatic customers, amd I had to have a Zager guitar. My ZAD-50 arrived recently and Ill say that the guitar exceeded my hopes and expectations. I have had some respectable guitars, but after playing the guitar for 30 seconds I realized this was something special. It was like ditching a rundown pinto and hoping into a fully loaded lexus. The look, feel, playability, and tone the whole package is just classy. There are some bad things though. I have become completely reclusive. All I do all day is play that guitar. If my phone isn't within reach I dont answer it. You should higher a Zager psychologist because Im thinking your guitars may have this effect on many people. Alright this message is taking to long the guitar is calling my name. Thanks Denny, you do it right. |

07/24/2007 Received the EZ-Play Zager ZAD-50CE Acoustic/Electric today. Fast delivery! It's beautiful and noticably easier to play with a very sweet sound that puts my old ax to shame. I'm not a very serious guitarist at all but I wanted to have an instrument of very good quality without spending a thousand or more. I was first looking at the Martin Sigma. On doing a web search I found your EZ-Play mods to the Sigma. On reading down the page I was convinced by your descriptions and decided I wanted something in the Zager ZAD-50 series. I'm not sorry about that decision. This is the ticket indeed.
Thanks Denny! You are providing a high-end guitar for those of us that couldn't otherwise aspire to a high-end guitar. |

07/22/2007 Dennis and Zager Gang,
Just had to tell you a quick story about the day I received my second Zager guitar. I drove home as fast as possible knowing the habits of the local UPS, my new Zager was probably sitting on my front porch.( which it was). I stopped in the driveway and grapped it like a lost child and into the house we went. After letting it adjust to the inside temp. (outside was 90 +) I gave the tuners a little touch and off we went into some chord progressions. While I was still drooling over the sound coming out of this thing, My wife came in from the garage, through the kitchen, and into the den. She had a funny look on her face and said, " I thought you were watching TV or playing a CD because that sounded much better than you on the guitar." Now the last guitar she heard me play was my $1700 Takamine. - DOES THAT TELL YOU SOMETHING? She doesn't even play the guitar, but, could hear the sound difference right out of the box. This is the reason I wanted ANOTHER Zager. Since I bought my first one I have purchased three other nice guitars and money has not been a real issue, so I could buy what I wanted. Recently though I have decided to take professional instruction and wanted the best training tool I could get. My wife ask me what did I think I wanted to take instruction on. I told her that the only people I knew that could guarantee me a guitar that was playable out of the box was Zager. So-- I came back, and plan
on staying with a sure thing this time.
P.S. Want to know what happened to my first Zager? My grandson has it and is taking lessons on it. His instructor
was very IMPRESSED with the sound and complete setup, even after all the hard miles I had put on it.
Thanks again Zagers, |

07/21/2007 Received my new baby today.....a Natural finish
ZAD-50CE. If I could describe it in one word, it
would be "WOW." I've put it down long enough to send
this note. I've had Gibsons, Fenders,
Ovations....even my 1979 Telecaster doesn't play this
easily! Thanks for the extras. Can't wait to use it for a gig. Look out
on July 4th! This is going to be so much fun.
Sincerely, |
 |
07/20/2007 Dennis:
Hey, don't know if you remember me...not important, I wanted to share something with you and ask you a question.
First the sharing...I own 2 Zagers: the ZAD-50 and ZAD-80CE. If you remember I wrestled with the quality of the electronics and the sound the ZAD-80CE would produce when plugged in before I made my purchase. Well recently I did a side by side comparison with my ZAD-80CE and my Taylor 814CE, a very nice guitar. I can honestly say that in my and my wife's opinion the Zager sounded "better" than the Taylor. I was amazed.
Second, the question...I read on the site something about Denny coming out with another guitar. Was that a wishful hope of an admirer of your guitars or do you have plans to introduce other guitar models in the future?
Thanks, |

07/18/2007 Denny and Dennis, Jr.
I just wanted to let you know how thrilled I am about my 80CEOM. After doing some research, I decided to give you guitar a try. It certainly sounded intriguing from the descriptions and testimonials, but I was a little skeptical about buying a guitar without playing it first. Your money back guarranty put me at ease, so I went for it.
Dealing with Dennis, Jr, was a pleasure when I finally decided to order. He made the process very easy and quite painless.
When I finally received the guitar, I was totally 'blown away' by how well it sounded and how truly easily it plays. I've been playing guitar off and on for almost 40 years, and have played and owned some great guitars, and none have really been easier to play than yours. Even my old 1974 Martin 00-21 is harder to play. I'm a finger picker, and the wider string spacing is appreciated.
In the month I have had it, I have been playing more frequently. Your guitar is fun to play, and
in short, your guitar is one that I will enjoy playing for years to come.
Thanks! |

07/18/2007 Hi again Dennis,
Thanks so much -
You and your Dad should consider writing a book or give a seminar about how to properly run a small business. Your business model (and execution of that model) greatly surpasses that of just about every company out there.
Every message that I have ever sent to you has been promptly and personally responded to... It's more than obvious that you genuinely care about every aspect of your business... Your product guarantees just can't be beat (you lose money on shipping if the customer doesn't like your products)... And your products...well, they pretty much speak for themselves!
Best of luck and success to you and your Dad, and thanks for everything!
Best Regards, |

07/15/2007 The guitar was delivered yesterday afternoon, my brother went over it carefully and found it in perfect condition. We played last night like fools. I learned the "scales" and found myself enjoying the sounds of sweet music within my home.
Appreciate the extras sent with my order. Thank you very much.
Thank you Dennis and all of you. Kurt B. |

07/12/2007 I got a problem, my Les Paul is getting dusty as well as my strat, this Zager guitar seems to still be getting all my attention.
Thanks!! |

07/10/2007 Dennis, I was searching for a guitar for my church and stumbled on your guitars. After a review of what you had to offer and listening to you videos I decided to purchase one. I myself am an amatuer player but the UPS driver plays and I let him check it out. He said it was awesome and loved the action. I took the guitar to my local music shop to install the strap peg. The owner had just returned from Nashville and said he had played many of the top stars guitars because they are so proud of their 8 and $9000 ones. He said your guitar was the best sounding he had ever heard and the action was awesome. I gave him your information and he wants to carry your guitars in his shop.I appreciate your attention to detail and the great customer service. I will recommend you to anyone looking for a great guitar.
Thanks and best regards, |

07/10/2007 Hello Denny & Denny Jr:
My name is Vince Hughes, I purchased a ZAD-50 CE a little over a year ago and it is impossible to tell you how much I am enjoying this instrument!! I own several other guitars, but I can't hardly bring myself to play them now (including a custom model handmade by my great-uncle who himself was an extrodinary luthier, he built guitars over the last 50 yrs and passed away this year at 99 yrs old! So needless to say his guitar is a special heirloom to me) At the time I purchased your Zager I really had become somewhat stagnant with my playing, but no longer, I signed up for your lessons and am thouroughly enjoying them ! I have been interested in a travel size guitar for sometime now, I purchased a g-series Takamine last summer for this purpose but I am so spoiled to the Zager that I just dont enjoy playing it! (I have a birthday coming up soon and I can start dropping hints to my wife!!!!) THANK YOU !!!!! |
 |
07/10/2007 Denny:
Just wanted to drop a line to give you another pat on the back. I have had my zad80om for about 5 months now and love it more with each new day. I finally had to tune it at the end of May. Honestly, I didn't have to tune this guitar for 4 months. I don't play as much as I used to but I still play about every 2-3 days. Great strings but also a stable guitar too! Thanks for everything. |
 |
07/06/2007 Again, I'm very pleased with the sound and the playability of it. It's a
real beauty. Love the tuner that'll work in acoustic mode, a first for me.
Next week I'm heading for my 59th birthday. The fingers are getting older
(and fatter). This baby accommodates them just fine!
Thanx again, |

07/04/2007 Zager Guitar
I received my guitar four days after I placed the order. I must say it is a beautiful guitar, the Zager e-z play string science makes such a difference. It has been such a pleasure to deal with a company like yours. You realley care about the customer and make sure he is satisfied . I also get the lessons on line and enjoy watching and learning from Denny. I could go on and on with how pleased I am, but will just say you are a class company with wonderful people behind it.
Thank you again |
 |
07/03/2007 Thank you Denny Zager for your dedication and commitment to serve others. Each one of us that have the privilege to own a Zager Easy Play Guitar are truly thankful. This ZAD-80-OM arrived from the master hands to my hands. The dynamic sweet tone of the guitar is exciting to hear. My wife's first comment was now that's a great sounding guitar. I been playing the ZAD50 for about a year. I really enjoy the online lessons and it is as you say each time I view the lessons something new is there to learn.
The ZAD-80-OM is a beautiful guitar. I feel like this guitar was custom made just for me. I have one final comment: a thank you goes to your staff, they are always easy and generous. |
 |
06/30/2007 Hey, thanks for your very responsive customer service,
and helpful website.
You guys are customer-oriented to an unusual degree,
and at a very high level.
It's much appreciated!
...and of course, I'm very much enjoying my ZAD 50CE.
It's become the mainstay for my acoustic gigs.
Naturally, I love my Martin.
But now it stays home, where it belongs,
and the Zager goes out and does the real work!
I've been recommending your guitars to people.
All the best, |

06/30/2007 HI Denny,
Sam Draper here. I got my ZAD 80 ce today. It is a beautiful instrument. It seems to settle in the more I play it and play it I will. I don't fall in love at first sight so I will need a bit more time before I can use the term love on this guitar. But when I do I will mean it from the bottom of my heart and you will be the first to know! I am looking forward to getting to know this nice guitar and I can't do that whilst I am typing so Thanks for a nice guitar and I will be in touch. |
 |
06/30/2007 I recently purchased a ZAD-50CE and I was really knocked out from the git go.
I've been playing guitar for more than 40 years and I have never pulled a guitar out of a case,much less a box that was already virtually in tune.
I WAS AMAZED!!!!! This is the guitar that I have been waiting for.The tone is so rich.
Thanks so much, |
 |
06/27/2007 First I would like to thank you for building great guitars that play awesome. I have a ZAD-50CE and absolutely love playing it! I also want to thank you for putting all of this together. I throughly enjoy playing full arrangements more than the usual strumming or lead lines. You have helped me learn through your videos and it has been well worth it! Thank you very much for a great experience with guitar, you have done a GREAT thing. Oh, and the strumming in 2525 makes my hair stand up! Great tune...Thanks again. |

06/24/2007 I've tried to teach myself guitar off and on for 30 years, but never progressed very far. In January I started taking lessons for the first time, and my teacher wanted me to buy another guitar because the one I had did not produce a good tone. Although he wanted me to purchase another brand, I went ahead and ordered a ZAD-80CE based on your user feedback, 100% guarantee, and on your word that you would deliver a great instrument.
I was not disappointed. Two weeks ago I received it and thought it was wonderful. It sounded fabulous and did seem easier to play. However, I reserved judgement until I let my guitar teacher evaluate it. He is a very accomplished musician, with a collection of expensive guitars, so I was a little anxious to hand him a guitar I bought online. When he took it in his hands and started playing, he suddenly stopped, and all he could say was "Wow!" That was when I knew it had his approval. He complimented the beauty of the instrument, the richness of tone, the playability, and the solid construction. He absolutely loved it. And then he told me I had made a great purchase.
The guitar does seem a lot easier to play that my other guitar. I do know that I can play this guitar with considerably less finger pressure on the strings.
Needless to say, I'm totally delighted with the guitar and found buying from you a great experience. |

06/22/2007 Denny,
Received my new ZAD50CE Monday. Very impressive looking finish, great case, and on delivery time as stated. I had my first chance to really wring it out today and have to say I am tremendously pleased with it!!
I?ve been playing guitar on and off for 40 years now. Had a group in the Army and played at EM clubs and local clubs in Germany. It's probably the closest I'll ever come to being famous *grin*. I've played since then on and off again, but mostly just plunking and picking out songs here and there for my own pleasure. I've been through quite a series of new and used 6 and 12 string acoustics and electrics. Just enjoy the sound and enjoy playing, as a "hobbyist" and sometimes lucking out and getting with others to play.
You've enriched my enjoyment with your guitar. It has a very bright yet mellow sound and a simple light and easy playability that I haven?t heard or felt in my prior guitars. I just spent a couple of hours enjoying playing again!! I am glad I made this purchase! I don't want to put it down! Thanks for the great product, quick service, and the fine tuning and design work that you've put into this guitar!
By the way, the hard-shell case is also a beauty. I'm also glad to have sprung for that. It's good looking, sturdy, and has a very plush interior. Just the right accent/necessity for the guitar!
Thanx, |
 |
06/21/2007 Hi Denny - love my guitar I bought a few years back - my buddy who is a country singer songwriter played it and was blown away. He is recommending you to his brother - thx man - GREAT guitar (my gibson J-185ec misses me...;) |
 |
06/20/2007 Dear Denny
I have been your new on-line student for about 3 months.
I am still doing Stage 1 songs. My favourite are Fur Elise and You are My Sunshine. I have also completed Love Me Tender and The House Of The Rising Sun. My next challenges will be Scaborough Fair and Heart Of Gold.
I think you are a very gifted musician and a wonderful teacher.
I am saving up for a Zager guitar by Christmas.
Thanks & Regards |
 |
06/18/2007 Hello,
Hope you're all doing well, and thanks very much for the ZAD-50 I bought a while back. It is truly a wonderful guitar (of course you know this!), and I am very happy with it.
Thank you! |
