Denny Zager rose to fame as part of the duo Zager & Evans in the late ’60s, yet it’s his guitars that have perhaps had the largest musical impact. Having applied his know-how to easy-to-play acoustic guitars, he’s retiring this year — but is leaving with an oft-requested black lacquer version of his cutaway ZAD900CE model. With a lower string height, greater distance between the strings, a slim neck, and an intelligent bracing system to help movement, it’s imminently playable, producing the same rich, warm sound that’s made it a beloved favorite. Each lucky buyer will also receive a robust bonus package that includes a digitally humidified case, extra Zager PillowTouch strings, three carbon-tipped picks, a truss key, a stainless capo, a leather strap, a digital tuner, and a free lifetime membership to Mr. Zager’s guitar lesson library. Each purchase also includes an autographed vinyl copy of Zager & Evans’ breakout 1969 single “In The Year 2525,” the title of which is reflected in the price.
