01/13/2009 Hi Denny, I received the ZAD50CE yesterday via UPS 3 business days after ordering it. This instrument is as awesome as your website testimonials claim, maybe even better! I was looking for damage on the guitar as this was a bargain model, and the only thing I can find is some pick marks on the pick guard, but only if you look really really close, in the right light! I cannot beleive the way this thing plays! I have been playing with my old Yamaha model for 23 years and always thought of it as a nice guitar, but not spectacular. I now have a spectacular guitar for far less than I ever thought I would be able to get one. The tone and the ease of play are truly remarkable for a guitar in this price range. You have definately figured out how to make the guitar user friendly, while not compormising on quality at all. I recently played a McPherson guitar, costing $6,000 plus, and my ZAD50CE guitar plays easier, and sounds as good, and the price is much better for a cost conscious financial advisor! I have been taking the online lessons for about two weeks using my old guitar and was having a hard time getting the songs to sound good. I used the ZAD50 on the first song "Love Me Tender" and within an hour I had the first half of the song down solid! Denny said on one of his lessons that the tone of the guitar makes all the difference when trying to learn songs, well he is absolutely right. I am really looking forward to playing this guitar and mastering it, for years to come! Thanks again for a wonderful guitar, online training, and the whole package. Your customer service has been superb! Keep it up, as I am telling everyone I know who plays guitar to check out your site, and get one of your guitars. God Bless,

01/10/2009 Dennis, just wanted to drop you a line to let you know that the guitar arrived on time and in great condition. I drove it up this weekend to my cousin and he is absolutely thrilled with it. It is every thing he was looking for in an inexpensive guitar but with the adding playability factor that you incorporated. Thank you again for the outstanding service and the terrific product.

01/08/2009 Dennis, Hello. I want to tell you and your team that the guitar arrived safely yesterday (packed substantially - Thank you) and it sounds and looks absolutely terrific. Even the case is impressive! My son is thrilled and putting real quality time into getting comfortable playing it and is already extending himself to more complex and difficult music. WOW!! Thanks again for your care and expertise in building such a beautiful instrument. Best Regards

01/04/2009 Hi Dennis, I didn’t expect the guitar to arrive so quickly! It was waiting for me Thursday evening when I got home. Thanks so much for all of your help! I’ve just signed up for the video lessons and look forward to a long relationship with Zager Guitar and rounding up a few new customers for you in the process!

01/04/2009 Hi Denny, I received my sunburst ZAD-50 over a week ago, & wanted to take a few days to try it out before I made any decisions. This guitar is GREAT!, it is as advertised, very easy to play, beautiful to look at & comfortable to wear at a gig. I am sure this will be my primary gigging guitar for years to come. I let several of my friends play it last Saturday, & I think you can count on a few more orders coming your way. Keep up the great work,

12/29/2008 Denny, The guitar arrived this morning. Thanks so much for your prompt attention and concern. Well, it's everything you said it was and more. I know you advertised a "mark" on the back and so the reduced price, but honestly, I couldn't find a mark anywhere on this instument with a microscope and I challenge anyone else to find one. More importantly, the set up is so comfortable and easy to play. No buzzing. Fingering seems almost effortless. I am at my law office right now so I could only manage a quick version of Pink Floyd's "Wish You Were Here", but man, I could play that thing all day. Thanks also for the generous gifts. T-Shirt, strings, guitar stand, picks. I don't know how you stay in business giving this stuff away. I represent mostly for Fortune 500 Companies and I'll bet you could make a fortune teaching these guys about customer service. By far and away the best service I've ever received. I am looking forward to the online lessons and intend to tell anyone I encounter that there is really no place else to buy a guitar, by mail or in person. And best of all, this is a birthday gift to me from my wife. And it's the best present I've gotten in 40 years! Seriously. I will drop you a line by telephone after I have played with it for a few days and let you know how it's going. Thank you so much and God bless. Very truly yours,

12/27/2008  I discovered Zager Guitars while doing a search for guitar lessons on You-Tube. I have a little Ibanez AW CE which I lowered the action on a little bit by sanding down the back of the saddle, it actually plays rather nice. The reviews and info at your site and info in various guitar magazines were all very favorable as I would expect but what really sold me on your guitars were the ‘anecdotal’ reviews in various independent guitar chat forums on the internet. Also I have gone to the local guitar center and played the better Taylors and Martins (Clapton Sig. etc.) they do play much better than the AW. But I must say my Zager Guitar Exceeded all my expectations with its balance/richness of tone and ‘playability’. It amazes me how much better this plays than the AW. Thank you very much for a Fine Instrument!

12/23/2008 Denny & Dennis... I wanted to follow up again, for a reason. I had not played guitar much at all since 1977. I don't think I played as much in the last 30 years aggregate as I did in a normal afternoon in the years before. Since I got my Zager guitar, I have plucked here and there, but I was recovering from surgery, and just wanted to get my feel back at holding a little piece of heaven in my hands. Tonight, I decided to take the plunge. There's a song I've been hearing and I like, so I searched out the chords and lyrics; Dierks Bentley's "Long Trip Alone." I played. I played again. And again. I was myself again for the first time in many years. I had a friend back. Denny, I'm no talent. I have short, stubby fingers, and short arms. But I never lost the dream, even if it is one that will never fully come to fruition. My new, beautiful ZAD 50CE gave me back a piece of myself I had lost so long ago. Thank you, thank you, thank you for making such wonderful instruments at a price that a guy like me can justify when his talent says "Gibson? Martin? Don't waste such money!" My landlord has an expensive Takimine (I know, I misspelled it) and when I showed him mine, he played for a moment, and said "this sounds better than my expensive guitar!" I feel alive again.

12/21/2008 Hi Dennis, We received the guitar this week. I can't tell you how pleased I /we are with it! I have been playing a lovely, Koa, anniversary model Martin....which, though beautiful, has difficult action, and speaks only if I coax with a strong stroke. Your instrument in contrast, is ready, willing and almost plays for me. I debated between your model and the Martins you set up with your "easy play ", and thought I'd take a chance on a newer product. I'm delighted with my choice! What a gift you have given to those of us Martin loyalists, thank you. I'm a believer! Sincerely,

12/20/2008 I just wanted to say thanks allot. Your guitar is everything and more of what you say it is. I have played allot of guitars and I am always looking for the ones that virtually play themselves and this is definitely one that does. The first time I played it I felt like I had become a better player in an instant. It is also a beautiful guitar. Thanks again and I am sure you will have continued success because of your great guitar and customer service.

12/17/2008 Hi Denny: Last week I received my ZAD-50 sunburst guitar and absolutely love it. I actually bought the "discounted" version thinking I could use it as a "Knock around". Make no mistake....This is not a second and it actually plays as nice as my ZAD-80CE. Well, I wanted to share my thoughts. Keep up the nice work. Thanks again.

12/14/2008 Hi Dennis, I played around with the levels on my amp and guitar. Sounds much better. Thank you for all of your help. You guys have an outstanding product and customer service. I've told a bunch of people about how impressed I am with you guys and the guitar. I have two other guitar players in my band and now they wish they would have bought one of yours before spending so much on their guitars and not having the quality of Zager/Martin. You guys really understand what it takes to make and keep a customer happy. If only the rest of the businesses out there were only half as good as you guys the world would be a much better place. Thank you again. I will continue to spread the good word and hopefully throw some more business your way. Thank you,

12/11/2008 Mr. Zager Jr. A couple of years back a purchased one of your EZ-PLAY guitars. Let me say that it is the finest guitar that I have ever had the pleasure to play and for the price...the purchase was the biggest no-brainer in the history of Earth. Upon receiving shipment of my guitar I was given a proto-type guitar capo that turned out to be another one of my favorites.

12/09/2008 Hi Denny, Sorry it took me so long to write you. I bought my Zager guitar about 2 years ago. I've been playing guitar for 40 years, and just started playing at pubs and vineyards with an old friend recently. I must tell you that I prefer playing the Zager over my $2000 Gibson. It's easier on the fingers, it stays in tune, and the sound is fantastic. One of these days, I hope to buy a ZAD-80.... Thank you,

12/07/2008 I've owned my ZAD50CE OM for 3 months now, and I want to tell you the more I play it, the more I love it. The action is amazingly easy, and the sound of each individual string when I'm finger picking is so clean and pure. I've played for 30 plus years, and have never really been a lead player, mostly a James Taylor-ish plucker and rhythm guy, but the ease of playing melodic lines and short riffs makes this instrument so much fun to play, I'm getting inspired to do more of it. My rheumatoid arthritis was one of the main reasons for buying a Zager, as I'd heard so many testimonials about the lower action. My Taylor 810 is a wonderful instrument that I've owned and enjoyed for 17 years, but I do find that after an hour or so of playing, my left hand tires. I often sit and play my ZAD for 2-3 hours with hardly any hand fatigue at all. Besides being such a pleasurable experience, I believe playing my ZAD for long stretches is actually helping to keep my hand(s) strong and flexible. Many thanks again for a wonderful and inspiring instrument.

12/05/2008 Mr. Denny Zager and Zager Jr. : I received my guitar today. I had the pleasure of playing the EZ-Play Zager ZAD-50CE Acoustic/Electric Black as soon as I opened the box. I just want to say everything that was stated about the Zager company is absolutely true to the fullest and more. From your customer service to your product, it has been a pleasure to play a Pure Zager guitar. Moreover, I would like to thank you from the my family to your family. You're family business is extremely rare. I have never in my life experienced such satisfying customer service. Not once was I told no that you can't help me. Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!! I definitely look forward to doing business with you in the near future and I will definitely share my experience with your company. Thank you so much. Note: To all customers who are unsure about all the comments posted about Zager and Zager guitars, please "Don't waste money and time". Zager has the BEST customer service by far and the best guitars for an affordable price that are comparable or better than 3 thousand dollar guitars that you can find at the store. Sincerely,

12/05/2008 Had my Zager about a month now and I'm just getting around to tell you how much I like it. My Zager is everything I expected and more. It looks great, sounds great, the case is great, this is truly a guitar you can buy mail order and not be disapointed. I know a fellow who's looking for an acoustic who wants to play mine. So thanks for everything.

11/29/2008 I cant believe it but I guess I didnt need the tracking number, the guitar is already here! I cant believe it! Its everything I read about it, beautiful craftmanship, extremely easy to play and sounds better than my high-end guitars (I have about 34 guitars). Someday these guitars will be worth a fortune. You have been more than kind and I cant wait for my friends to see this instrument. If you come out with another lefty model,please,please let me know! I cant thank you enough..

11/27/2008  Denny, I received my guitar right on schedule. It arrived in perfect condition and as would be expected I just had to play it. I was surprised how much my finger tips hurt when I put it down. Surprised because it was two hours later and I could not play my old guitar much more than thirty minutes before my hand was aching so much I had to stop. I'm 53, and have only been playing for 3 years and was ready to throw in the towel before I came across your web site. I wasn't sure I wanted to invest nearly seven hundred dollars into what may be a losing effort, but took a chance and had to thank you.

11/27/2008 Hi Denny I just wanted to let you know that my ZAD50 arrived yesterday and I absolutely LOVE IT! It looks great, plays wonderfully and the sound is fantastic! My buddy came over today and after playing it, he said that it played as easy as his electric guitar. I've been thinking about purchasing one for the last few months and I am so glad that I made the decision to go ahead and buy one. I also signed up for the online lessons. Anyway I just wanted to let you know that my guitar had arrived and I really appreciate all of the support and help that you guys offer. Thanks alot and have a good weekend.

11/27/2008 I bought a Zager ZAD-50CE a couple of years ago because I was intrigued by the testimonials. Loved it and found it was the only one I played. My son moved out and took it with him. His reasoning being that it was his favorite also and that I owned several big name, high end guitars. Long story short, I sold all my other guitars and purchased the Zager ZAD-80CE OM. Received it yesterday and am again in guitar heaven. Trust me, there is no comparison. The Zager is so much easier to play it's ridiculous and the tone and craftmanship match or exceed all the others at a fraction of the price. If you're a beginner don't waste your time and money buying anything else. If you're a seasoned pro I would recommend you try a Zager. You will be pleasantly surprised. Easily the best guitar value on the market. Personally, I think it is the best GUITAR on the market, hands down. Buy one or more. You won't be disappointed.
