"The Zager buying experience is second to none. Dennis Jr answered questions right away, usually within minutes. The guitar arrived safely and on time. It's the most beautiful acoustic guitar I've ever held. It only needed a slight tuning right out of the box. It plays like butter and sounds great. I tried a lot of high end acoustics at local music stores but I always felt something was missing. This guitar felt like an old friend the first time I picked it up. This IS the acoustic guitar I was looking for."
"Well Received my Zager ZAD80CE LH: Did not received my lucky package, e-mailed Dennis Jr. he replied very fast and told me why and said he would take care of it. Now back to the review I ordered it and a day later received a email with the tracking number very excited, however at days end I received a email from Dennis Jr. that said it did not ship. (hope you feel better Denny). Well waited two more days, but then it came happy. However just a note about delivery by FedEx they just put by my door, did not ring the bell bad FedEx. I have been playing for more 20 years own and owned many guitars, Always wanted a Martin or Taylor. played Taylors at their factory never played a Martin. So when I open the case She looked so nice picked her up and strummed her little out of tune very little after a fast tune with the Fishman.Very pleasing sound rich deep mellow nice. Then I plug her in and Wow she came to life. Amp up or not what a sound loving it. Now playability or easy play not sure if she easier to play then others, that being said I have a heavy hand you know fingers. As far as workmanship what can I say seems top notch and looks great. I have not seen another guitar for the money bang per buck like this. Now for the customer service rating 10. Oh and its guaranteed for life nice. So there it is from someone who OWNS one. "
"I purchased my zager guitar back in 2013. The Zager company then shipped the guitar over to me in England and I can attest that the quality of this instrument is second to none. This guitar has been played regularly and it is still in pristine condition. I changed the strings recently, November 2018, and noticed a fracture on the saddle. I contacted Zager and they immediately offered to manufacture a new item free of charge. Upholding the promise of a lifetime guarantee. These guys have great customer service and more importantly honest integrity. I can highly recommend Zager Guitars. "
"Having been a guitar player for many years, I was looking for a guitar that was easy on the fingers, the one biggest problem I had while I was playing with a different guitar. I am encouraging my grandson to live his dream of playing a guitar by buying him his very first one for Christmas. I search for many hours until I read and watched a video of the Zager guitars and I was really excited about buying it. I bought it online and ,when it came it was in perfect shape. The all wood guitar is really a thing of beauty. I can't wait to see my grandson's face when he first sees the guitar on Christmas mourning ."
"I really had a rough time selecting an acoustic, with all the brands available. There are so many to choose from in the $300 to $800 price range. I played a Gibson Song Writer, an Ovation, a couple different Martins (which I liked), a Fender, Breedlove, Taylor, Yamaha and Guild to name a few. Each had it's charm, some had no appeal to me in the least, some were just out of my price range.
I read great reviews on the Zager guitar, and some saying they're like an Estabon, which is absurd. I've played one of those too, and I'm not into the polyurethane encased wood sound and a plastic feeling neck.
So, I bought a Zager and I love it still. Bright, easy on the fingers and it reproduces the same full sound as a couple other brands that were above my pay grade. Do yourself a favor, buy a Zager (and save some bucks without compromising your desire for great sound). "
"I rarely do reviews, but when I find something extraordinary, I pass it on. Left-handed people often have a difficult time (in some areas), like test driving a high-end acoustic guitar. The big box stores don't have them on hand for you to try, so you have to order (purchase) one and hope you're happy with it. When I learned that Zager Guitars offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee (free shipping both ways), I decided to take them up on their offer. I bought the "left handed ZAD900ce." I didn't get my hopes too high because everyone advertises their product/s as "the best." However, when I pulled the guitar out of the case and began plunking away, I was... and still am BLOWN AWAY! Understand something, folks... the Zagers (Denny and Dennis Jr.) are the real deal! This instrument is every bit, and more that it's advertised to be. The craftsmanship, projection, sound quality and aesthetics are incredible! In my mind, the ZAD900ce is second to no one. In my mind, It's worth twice the price I paid for it. If you're in the market, try one... you'll see what I mean. "
" I ordered the guitar last day of June.. and got $99 international shipping, which is a great deal in itself.. here to Asia. Because of the Zager production demand and backlog.. it could not be shipped until September. Dennis gave me $100 off for that inconvenience, which was also nice. So basically, it was shipped to me in the Philippines, for free. It arrived first of October. I was impressed by the beautiful solid custom fit hard case, as well as the guitar. Beautiful finish and solid all the way around. Not one flaw I could detect. Most impressive, was the playability and custom setup.. right out of the box. All I needed to do was play, and enjoy. Dennis was a pleasure to work with, in customer service.. and his dad Denny, is definitely the setup man / luthier he was reviewed as being. Another pleasant surprise, was getting the Fishman electronics / tuner on the guitar (that I did not originally order). Only minor issue, was the slippery strings and the overall newness of the guitar. They sent me a years worth (6 sets) of uncoated Zager strings, so the next string change should resolve the slippery issue. I am quite happy I decided to order this guitar, vs buy the Alvarez mahagony Parlor I tried in the mall music store here. I could already see, it would need a lower action setup on the Alvarez, although still sounding good. The Zager sounds every bit as good, and has lots of punch and volume for a parlor size guitar. No regrets.. and would not hesitate to recommend them, or order another model."
"I purchased the 80CE OM 3 weeks ago and couldn't be happier with my purchase. Great guitar - love the cedar top and warm tone. First rate customer service. "
"Dennis went out of his way to provide timely answers to all my questions. He even answered emails promptly that were sent outside regular business hours. The shipment arrived 2 days earlier than expected and in pristine condition. I was amazed how many useful extras were included at no additional cost, particularly the gorgeous sturdy case ,the strap, the extra sets of strings, and packages of picks. The guitar is a beautiful instrument with a lovely rich sound. I am surprised how little force is required to play barre chords. The coated strings are easy on the fingers. The instrument is a delight to play."
"This is my first Zager Guitar. I had decided to go top-of-line and if I wasn't satisfied that would give me every right to complain.
Well, there are NO complaints here. First of all it arrived a day earlier than Fed-ex quoted. I brought it in the house, opened it and it was BEAUTIFUL. It was everything I was expecting in quality and workmanship. Being an ex-QA Manager you know that I went over it very closely. It is fantastic. This Product and Guarantee are meeting/beating all of my markers.
I then tried a few licks and a little finger picking that I picked up on your video lessons. I love the lower string heights, neck shape, overall feel and beautiful tone and resonance. I will soon have a Fender GA45SCE-LH for sale, which is a great guitar, just not in the same class as my new Zager.
Keep up the great work, I may have some new Customers want to check out your gear.
A very happy and satisfied Customer.

"My ZAD 80 CE is a Christmas gift and I couldn’t be more pleased with the decision to chose Zager. With some arthritis in my hands the guitar plays super easy given the extra string spacing and the sound is amazing (rich) at both low and high ends. But it was the price that grabbed my attention at first......an all hard wood cutaway electric that sounds as good if not better than all those other brands I’ve tried. The guitar is such high quality for the price and the quality hard case that it was delivered in is a big bonus. I had a great customer service experience and it’s obvious Zager cares a great deal for their customers! I feel like I’ve received a custom made instrument and I love playing it. "
"I bought my ZAD 80CE earlier this year, used from a pawn store in Denver, Co. Shout out to Wedgle's Music and Loan. They were awesome! I found my Zager after a lengthy online search and got an incredible deal. I sent my guitar to Zager and asked them to set it up since I bought it used and it is about eight years old. Their turn around time was very quick. I recently bought an amp and found the input jack was needing replaced, as is common over time (I've replaced two on my other guitars). I also noticed the piezo was not picking up the high E evenly. I contacted Zager and asked for the dimensions on the piezo they use and Dennis Jr stated they would replace it for me. I did not expect this as I bought an older Zager from a pawn shop. They told me I was still a part of the Zager family and wanted me to be extremely happy with my guitar. Not only am I happy with my guitar, I'm really impressed with their customer service. I've played Martin, Takemine, and Fender, my ZAD 80CE is absolutely my favorite. Perhaps someday I'll buy the ZAD 900CE. Thank you Zager family.

"Absolutely amazing! I love everything about this company! High quality accessories like strings, picks and the cases are sturdy as hell, can really take a beating from my clumsy jazz hands! Will recommend to all my guitar buddies!"
"I bought a 38" parlor electric acoustic guitar. This easily one of my favorite musical purchases I have ever made for two reasons. First the guitar is exactly as advertised. Not only is it easy to play, but it also has an full robust sound for a guitar this size. I have played other full size guitars that don't sound as good. Second, the customer service provided is exceptional and some of the best I have ever experienced. Dennis and his Dad take great pride in their products and their efforts towards their customers make it quite evident. I will be purchasing another Zager in the future. Likely a full size to replace the full size acoustic electric I have from another big name manufacturer. You will not go wrong purchasing a Zager guitar. "
"I found the Zager website purely by accident on Thanksgiving of 2015. I was searching for a how to adjust the neck of my acoustic guitar and there it was. So I watched and listed to Dennis Jr and then looked around at the merchandise. I'd never heard of Zager Guitars and then I realized that Dennis Zager SR. Is the Zager of Zager & Evans of the major hit song "InThe Year 2525!" Being of that era made it a special find also. On Thanksgiving I decide to reach out on the Chat section to inquire about the ZAD900CE. I figured I would here back in a day or two and just like that Dennis Jr. And I are Chatting. He said "Don't worry, dinner isn't until 4:00." I ordered my ZAD900CE a few days later as I figured with thier 100% Guaranty I couldn't loose. You couldn't buy my guitar back from me at Any Price today. The playability, tone, fit & finish are all 5+Stars. Now after two years it is even sounding sweeter and more full bodied then when I received it. The Aura sound system that they selected to add is another secret find of owning a Zager Guitar. It allows you to download a multitude of guitar manufactures into it for a completely different sound and more. As good as my Zager ZAD900CE sounds acoustically, wait until you plug it in, wow. I use a Roland AC 60 Chorus stereo amp and it just fills the entire room with such a balanced tone. You can feel the guitar resonate as you play and the nut and string spacing is everything they say it is and more. I have several, as I call them, Children or my acoustic guitars and each one has its own personality. Without fail every time anyone plays my collection, only one has been called The Beast, my ZAD900CE. I highly recommend the Zager Guitar family and thier products."
