I recently received my new Zager guitar, and signed up for the lessons too. I'm so excited about owning this treasure! The quality and attention to detail is incredible, and Dennis even signed the back of the guitar in gold. When I first took it out of its case (free with the guitar), I strummed the strings and the clarity and sound is exceptional. Thank you for continuing to make these fine guitars! Prior to and after the purchase, when chatting with Dennis, he replied immediately to my questions.
