"I bought a Zager ZAD 80CE/OM a few months ago after the Pandemic started. While stay home most of the time, playing Zager guitar has become my favorite thing to do in my spare time. It is well crafted and sounds really nice. I have small hands and the OM size guitar fits me well. The strings are easy to press down against fretboard compare with other guitar I played before. I expect to play Zager guitar and enjoy it for many years to come.

"Hello Denny and Dennis,
We drove in from Yosemite today and found my new guitar ZAD50-CE waiting for me.
WOW played a few cords, for an Hour & the wife said I sounded great, lmao cannot believe that!
Hey and its set to the green wood high action still and its easier to play than my DAD’s old Yamaha!
I normally play in new standard tuning and will probably have to buy a few more of Your Dad’s Family creations, Hopefully one for every tuning possibility!
I will more than likely drop the action to close the gap then I bet she is even easier to PLAY!
As they say, “To the Best of Us All” to You Denny & Dennis we didn't even talk and I made the right decision, Thank You!
Highest Regards!
Steve Bailey"

"The Rich Sound and the End is. Guitars that I thought were really cool before I got my Zager. For the price, you can't go wrong, better than others at two or three times the size."

"It is true, I was a winner in the recent Zager Guitar giveaway. I already own a cutaway, ZAG900, and have become a better guitar player since that arrived in September. Now, I also own a perfect travel guitar, the ZAD01PK N. Came with a tuner, picks, extra strings, strap, and a great lightweight, guitar bag with back straps. In my youth, I could see myself on the side of a highway, thumb out, and guitar on my back! Now, I just have to settle for a walk over to a friend’s for a jam.
Thanks, Zagers’, not only for the prize, but also for your support, service, products, and resources. I have already referred many of my friends to you."

"I purchased a ZAD900CE series guitar but when I received it, the Aura preamp was bad. I contacted Dennis Jr., and he worked with me and had the preamp replaced free of charge, including the cost of shipping the bad one back. Outstanding customer service and response time! Now, on to the the guitar.. Absolutely beautiful craftsmanship! The abalone and pearl inlays really set it apart! Great Job, Dennis SR!!"

"I recently purchased a ZAD50CE Solid African Mahogany Acoustic Electric. I have had my Takamine for over 20 years and have always been happy with it, but when I compare it to my Zagar...there is just no comparison. This guitar is so much easier to play. Denny's years of hard work building guitars led to his "Easy Play" guitars. However, the joy doesn't end with the ease of play, on top of that, the sound is unmatched by any guitar I have played. Thanks Denny and the Zagar team!"

"i cannot say enough about the sales and service at Zager .. they make me want to practice longer and more often with their products.... it is so relaxing using one of their guitars... stay safe and keep up the great work...."

"ZAD80CE OM - Fantastic guitar sound and quality, this guitar has definitely exceeded my expectations of playability, clarity of sound and soft feel on the fret board. I have been switching between three second hand guitars trying to progress my learning over the past 9 months. Not having the perfect shape hand for guitar playing, I struggled with chord changes on the thicker neck guitars. On the thinner neck guitar, the difficulty was achieving clarity of notes, with the close string spacing. So rather than give up, I read some articles on the net which led me to my decision to buy a Zager Guitar. After only a couple of days with the Zager Guitar, my chord switches and confidence has improved and I am looking forward to progressing much faster using only one guitar. My guitar was shipped internationally and arrived at my door in Australia 11 days after placing the order. The couple of emails I sent to Dennis Jr were answered very quickly, even if it was 3.00am. The Zager Family are very community minded and generous to boot. I was fortunate enough to be on the receiving end of a Denny surprise, when I opened the case. I even emailed Dennis Jr to see if it was a mistake, no mistake due to stock levels Denny had upgraded my order. Thanks again Denny."

"Stunning guitar with fantastic attention to detail. Beautiful wood and materials. I decided to buy the OM size because it looked very comfortable to hold and I was right - sits right on my thigh perfectly. The ZAD 80CEOM I purchased has a very rich tone - particularly in the mid-range, but well-balanced - super warm (and I've only played it for about an hour). I have a Seagull Solid Cedar Topped S6 I've owned and played for about 20 years to compare it to at the moment, which admittedly is a lesser-quality guitar, but I've also owned a $2,700 Taylor. This ZAD 80 is prettier than any guitar I've ever owned and great tone right out of the case for 1/2 the price. Equally important to me is that every email is answered within a few hours and they always picked up the telephone when I called. Customer service is second to none in my book - this is a company that bends over backward for you and the customer clearly ends up on top. I had a very minor issue with my order and they made up for it in a BIG way. Let's just say I have never experienced a company that cares about developing life-long customers the way the people at Zager do."

"My experience with Zager was very good. I asked Dennis (by email) a ton of questions and he answered them very quickly. Have had the guitar for several months and really enjoy playing it. The finish is very good, the sound and quality of sound are great, the harmonics are excellent and it really is easier on the finger tips. I play it almost as much as my Taylor. (But then again I've had my Taylor for 24 plus years) Would have no reason to not buy another one."

"Just received my new Zagar ZAD50CE. I LOVE it. I’ve never played an acoustic/electric before. I love the size of this one. Easy to play. Quality workmanship. I can feel the love that was put into making it. It is a beautiful guitar. I hesitated to spend this much money on a guitar I never played but with their money back guarantee it gave me the freedom to take the plunge so to speak. Once I played it I was sold. I had a question when I first got it and Dennis Jr responded to me in less than two hours. And it was Sunday! Best customer service ever. If you’re waffling take a chance. You won’t regret it. "

"I got my Zager 900 OM CE delivered and it is better than I had hoped. Beautifully made and plays really really well. This guitar sounds just as good if not better than the Taylors I have been looking at. Customer service is above and beyond what any other business is doing these days. Top Notch! "

"I rarely (almost never) post product reviews, but in this case I feel compelled to do so. A little background: I am two years into a battle against cancer, and an unfortunate side effect of my chemo treatments is that I now have a pretty bad case of neuropathy in my hands and feet. I was devastated when I realized that I could not play my instruments (banjo and guitar).

To overcome this, I signed up for online lessons with Jamie Andreas, following her "Principles of Correct Practice for Guitar". This method focuses on very rigorous training of the fingers, hands, and whole body to achieve proper form for playing any style of guitar. I was a couple of weeks into this training, using a very fine Whitebook dreadnaught guitar, and making slow but steady progress, when a friend suggested I take a look at Zager guitars.

I spent quite a bit of time on the Zager site reading the promo verbiage and reviews, and looking at all the photos. In my mind, I was holding onto quite a bit of skepticism. Zager makes a lot of promises about their products and service, some of which are a bit of a challenge to believe, especially given the relatively low prices of their guitars.

The "Easy Play" moniker, and all the talk about playability, the string spacing, low-profile neck design, low action, etc. was attractive to me in my situation, so I decided to take a chance and order the ZAD900CE model. I was relying on the money-back, shipping paid guarantee to assuage my buying fears. ("Buy a $2,000+ guitar without even holding and playing it? Are you frigging crazy?")

My first big surprise was that the box arrived in just a few days, much quicker than I expected. The guitar was well protected in its case and outer box, and when I opened the case it almost took my breath away. It is every bit as beautiful as it appeared on the website. I expected minor flaws in the inlays, the finish, and other details, compared to the expensive guitars I've played and owned, but I have to say, the craftsmanship is virtually flawless.

I immediately felt comfortable with the neck and action, and really love the satin finish on the neck. And another big surprise to me is the volume and tone - this thing is loud! The tone is bright and round, and I like it a lot.

In summation, Zager makes a lot of big promises, and I'm totally blown away by the extent to which those promises are fulfilled, and then some. I'm thrilled with this guitar!

"I bought my Zager early in 2020. I prefer it to my Yamahas and my Martin. Plays easier and sweeter; set up out of the box. I like everything about it and so do those I've let try it out.
I had a little issue with the tuner/preamp seemingly dead all of a sudden. Dennis JR. got back to me immediately and inspired me to check the battery placement. Yep; it was not quite shoved in far enough. Instant fix! Took me a few minutes between finding the problem and getting personal help with it! Who does that!"

"Dennis,
The ZAD80CE arrived on August 20th. It’s been a month now and I LOVE IT!

I’ve looked at many guitars of all makes and none compare to the ZAD. The bass tones are especially sweet. I lowered the strings a little with the key and got them in a sweet spot that’s really easy to play. The beautiful darker color of the cedar is also my favorite.

Tell your dad thanks for the masterpiece. "
