07/03/2001 Denny and Dennis, I recieved my guitar tuesday and loved the action on it, but for some reason it did not sound right. I tuned it as it should be but still not right. I was on the verge of sending it back when I started checking each string and found that the A string was dead for some reason. I have been playing for at least 10 years and know these things can happen. I replaced the string and it sounds great, sorry to say you will not be getting the guitar back. Thanks for going out of your way to get me the DM-IST-CE, it is a very well made guitar and I know it will last for years. I will be using the guitar in my stuido along with my ovation for recording. Thanks again Denny and Dennis, I'm sure you will be in business for years to come, oh and buy the way I know a lot of guitar players and will be sending them your way.

06/30/2001 Dear Mr. Zager, I've been playing rhythm guitar for over thirty years, and the other day, my old SR acoustic guitar broke (bridge plate just let loose). I cried. That old guitar and I had been great friends through everything all those years. I learned everything I know on it, and I had decided long ago that I would always use it for writing, and learning new songs, 'cause the difficulty inherent in such a [cheap] relic, made me a better player overall. Anyway, I decided not to fix it just yet, and buy a new guitar to replace it as my work-horse. I looked far and wide for something at a good price that didn't seem to be a scam. My old SR cost $20.00 new, so I had to be careful. That's where you come in. I stumbled upon eBay, thinking someone might be selling a used guitar at a reasonable price, and your eBay offer came up. I knew who you were from the '60s, so I clicked on the item page, and was quite impressed. Then I clicked on the "Streaming Video", and I was sold. It felt like you knew of my loss, and had come up with this guitar just for me. I know that sounds silly, but that's how it felt. When it arrived, it was like bringing home a newborn baby. Then I played it. It felt so familiar. The string spacing and neck width, are almost identical to my old SR, which is a very good thing for my fat fingers. I'll have to get used to the "String Science" though. It's so easy to play, it feels like I'm cheating.Thank you so much for this beautiful guitar.

06/28/2001 Hi guys- I got my EZ-Play Washburn guitar about one month ago. I am a beginner. I have ALMOST mastered Love Me Tender. At first the technique really challenged me but now it is almost automatic! Thanks for everything.

06/28/2001 Mr. Zager, I received the EZ-play and it was in excellent condition. You shipped it very well (UPS would have had to try quite hard to damage it). I love the finish and wood colors. This is my first guitar, and while I am certainly no expert I can definitely tell the difference from my friends' guitars--no buzzing at all! Also, I have left positive feedback on ebay. It'd be nice if you left some for me too, since I have so few ebay transactions. It's been a pleasure doing business with you, and I wish you the best with this business-you sell a great product and are honest about its qualities. Thanks so much!

06/24/2001 I bought your Zager ZAD-20, it is really a nice guitar. I feel like I should send in more money. I also signed up for your lessons... they are really well put together. I've been playing around with the guitar for the last 40 or so years. I learned more in the first lesson than I had in the last 30 to 40 years. It doesn't come instantly. It will take a lot of practice. Being able to go back over a lesson as many times as I need is really helpful. When ever I have called with a question I have always talked directly to Denny. Wouldn't this world be a great place if every one ran their business like Denny Zager. Again I can't say enough about the ZAD-20 guitar, very nice. Thank You

06/21/2001 I recently purchased a Zager EZ Play guitar and returned it. It was, as advertised, amazingly easy to play but it's sound, while good, would not have supplanted my top of the line Yamaha. So I decided to return the Zager EZ Play and have my Yamaha set up by Dennis Zager down the road. When I informed the Zager Company of my decision they said "no problem just send the guitar back and they would issue a full refund". About a week later I received an email from Dennis Zager Jr. stating the returned guitar had arrived and it's neck was broken ...compliments of UPS. He added that he was issuing a full refund and would handle the broken neck problem with UPS. Well..... I'm just not used to this level of customer service. Since I was returning the guitar, you could argue that technically, I was not even a customer or was a bad one at best. What a pleasure to find such a customer satisfaction oriented company. They back up their advertised claims and do so cheerfully. Zager Guitar is a company you can trust.

06/18/2001 Denny, I really appreciate doing business with you. I have purchased 2 guitars from you in the last 2 1/2 months and you would be the first person I would think of if I were to purchase another. I recommend you highly to all who have an interest in a guitar. You have even intervened when a delivery service caused damage in shipment. I appreciate the fact that you think of your consumer first. You took care of me and fought the battle with that delivery service later. You (and your son) exemplify customer service and I am proud to shout your praises. The guitars you sell are a value and they are only exceeded by the level of trust you have earned with your customers. I also appreciate the fact that you answer your cell phone at all times and patiently answer all my questions. I look forward to doing business with you even in the year........................ 2525, if man is still alive .......... If woman should survive!

06/12/2001 Hi Denny: I have had my dr-41 for two weeks now and I wanted to wait on my response to fully and completely understand what I now have in my possession. What can you say about a piece of artwork? Family heirloom? Timeless heritage? I remain in awe at the quality of the action. Sound is incredible! And this is not just my opinion. Four other accomplished guitarists have played this guitar and all have raved about many aspects. The action being the highlight! Denny you have outdone yourself and I thank you for your custom application and complete craftsman like touch to this exquisite piece. I have several guitars, including a 1933 Gibson J-7, and the action is finer this guitar than any other! I will extend this offer again. If anyone in Southern California would like to actually see what it is you do or have to offer, give them my number and I will meet with them so they can have a quick hands on! Thank you very much for such a quality piece. It is fantastic.

06/09/2001 Denny and Dennis, Thanks you for the excellent and friendly service and for coming up with the small box TB1-N Sigma Guitar for me. I am enjoying it immensely. This is not the most expensive guitar I have owned, but it plays better than instruments several times its price. The set up is outstanding. The 000 auditorium size box is a perfect fit for me -very comfortable. This piece will improve my playing by an order of magnitude just because its so much fun to play. I like it so much that I purchased a hard shell case to protect my guitar. It's a keeper. I have also purchased a subscription to your web site instruction. I've never been any good at finger-style, but felt that now is the time to really give it a try. I've gained more from watching the videos on tuning and adjusting than I had picked up in the last 30 years of fooling around trying to learn on my own -or from teachers who didn't really teach anything. I look forward to seeing some of those "coming soon" features you have listed.I'm a big fan of your string science. Thanks for all you've done to make playing my guitar a more enjoyable experience. Sincerely

06/08/2001 Dennis, I am pleased to be able to tell you that my new toy has arrived today in perfect condition. There is a little rattle on strings 4 & 5 when played open but I suspect that I will be able to put that right with a small adjustment to the truss rod. I intend to give it a few hours to get used to the English climate before I do anything though. I do play a little already and have been taught the classical style with the thumb held firmly at the back of the neck. I'm very much looking forward to learning a new style of playing. Thank you very much for all of your help and good service. If you would like an endorsement from me at any time please do not hesitate to contact me.With kind regards

06/06/2001 Denny, WOW! I can't believe it! The guitar literally plays itself. I expected a little bit of a difference but nothing like this. This guitar makes me sound like a better player than I am. I can do things with it that I never use to be able to. You are a master at what you do. I wish you continued success. Thank you.

06/06/2001 Mr. Zager. I was initially pretty apprehensive about the whole idea lowering the strings to the levels that you do. I have had my Martin D-28 adjusted by 3 different luthiers over the last 8 years, but every time I got the guitar back the strings rattled like crazy. Not only were the strings lower after you applied your modification, IT DIDN'T BUZZ AT ALL! Amazing. I can't thank you enough.

06/03/2001 Denny and DZ2, The Sigma spruce top cutaway arrived Tuesday just in time for my son's 2nd lesson. That made his sister very happy as she got her Martin OM16GT back. That's the one we purchased from you last year and the sister to the model that appeared in your video. Well, my son loves the Sigma as does his teacher. You were right, it's a real looker. Thanks again and just to let you know, the 2 guitars that you performed your string science on, my Martin SWOMGT and my 30 year old faithful Yamaha 12 string, don't seem to spend much time in their cases. Later

05/31/2001 Denny, I tried to leave a supplemental positive feedback for you on Ebay, but only 1feedback is allowed. Anyway, thank you so much for replacing my son's guitar ....and sending the T-shirt. He got a kick out of that. Service really is everything and you sure delivered. Who knows. This guitar could still be making beautiful music in the year 2525.

05/29/2001 I would just like to take a moment and tell you how much of a pleasure it is dealing with all of you. Every time I have E-Mailed you with a question or problem (which have been on my end - not yours). You have been amazingly prompt in your reply. You have resolved or answered anything I have thrown at you so quickly it almost scared me. I called your 800 number one night, when I first signed up, and talked to Denny himself. He told me to E-Mail you, which I did, and before I could get off my E-Mail screen, you had replied. I expected it to be an automated response but to my amazement there was a real person on the other end of the keyboard. I'm very pleased to be able to business with a company of this QUALITY.

05/29/2001 Dennis, I can't believe that your being so customer oriented. It was an honest mistake and even in a perfect world they do happen. Its great to get a response like this. Have you ever though of branching out of the music business and teaching customer service siminars to large corporations? Thank you so much.

05/29/2001 Denny Zager, I'm a 25 year player. I own 4 guitars ranging in price from an old $300 Yamaha to a 1971 Martin D-45 that's probably worth over $7k. I sent you the Yamaha to see exactly how much improvement your string science could make. Long story short...I haven't put the guitar down since I got it back from you...it's lightening fast and plays like a dream. You will be receiving my Martin shortly. Best regards,

05/25/2001 Dear Denny, I wanted to let you know how happy I am with the String Science you performed on my new Taylor. When I first opened the box and played it, I worried the action was too low but after playing it a day or two, I have absolutely fell in love with the playability of it. A friend of mine who is a very seasoned player played it this past weekend and he said "I love that guitar". This gentleman is 70+ years old and plays as much like Chet Atkins as anyone I've ever heard. He took my new Taylor and played the "Hawaiian Wedding Song" and he began smiling. It sounded heavenly. Thanks again Denny.

05/23/2001 Hello my name is Karie I just joined your wonderful sight about a month ago i got the music bug having this desire to play the guitar for about a year now i have spent tons of money on learning to play guitar dvd's,casettes,and books but i have not learned as much as i have on your site it is a wonderful thing for me to come home from work and learn how to play it releases alot. I am almost finished with eric clapton tears in heaven. I was wondering if i could request a dixi chicks song i'm a fan i don't know what level that would be but maybe you could have one on someday.

05/22/2001 Dennis, UPS delivered my guitar this morning and it is great! After the situation with the first two guitars, apparently the old saying "third time is the charm" is true. If the second guitar ever shows up I'll send it back to you. Thanks for all of your promptness to the delivery problems. I have never doubted your integrity. You have been great to work with and I am looking forward to playing my guitar. I'm off Monday for the holiday so I'll have a long weekend to enjoy it. Thanks again!!!!

05/19/2001 Dennis Zager Jr. After writing the email I thought to do the exact same thing you mentioned and have already spoken to your father. He was wonderfully attentive and helpful. As soon as I get my computer upgraded I'll be getting the online tutorial as well. I'm very very happy with all the personal attention and the quality of the guitar. Bowled over is more like it!

05/19/2001 DZSR and DZJR, I just got the guitar about an hour ago. WOW! I haven't played in a couple years, but I feel like I never stopped. The string science is a huge advantage. Bar chords are so much easier on this guitar than my old one. The tone is outstanding. I used to be the king of buzz! I have yet to get the guitar to buzz at all. I can't wait to hear how well this guitar sounds once I get my "chops" back. Thanks again!
