All Zager guitars share the same Easy-Play design and are lifetime instruments.

• 20 & 50 Series – exceptional value, very comfortable, and outperform many guitars costing far more
• 80 & 900 Series – deeper, richer tone with rosewood and more advanced hand-scalloped bracing

If you want the safest all-around choice, most customers start with the 50 Series. If you want maximum depth and refinement, the 900 Series is our flagship.

Yes. While all Zagers are easy to play, the 80 and 900 Series do play easier for many players.

That’s because they use a more advanced hand-scalloped bracing system, which allows the top to move more freely. This reduces the effort needed to get full tone, making the guitar feel more responsive under your hands.

Yes — this is one of the main reasons Zager guitars exist.

They require less finger pressure, reduce fatigue, and make forming chords easier, which helps beginners progress faster and returning players enjoy playing again.

Yes. Many customers choose Zager specifically for comfort.

Design features include lower string pressure, lower string height, wider string spacing, a slim arched neck, and soft metal frets — all working together to reduce hand strain.

We recommend full-size first for the best depth and fullness of sound.

Zager full-size guitars are slightly slimmer at the shoulders, making them very comfortable. OM models are a great option if you specifically want a smaller body for comfort or portability.

Because they are built to be easier to play — not just adjusted that way.

Neck geometry, string spacing, bracing design, fret material, nut and saddle work are all engineered together to reduce effort and improve comfort.

Yes — many of our customers previously owned them.

Zager guitars are sold direct, without retail markups, so more of your money goes into materials, craftsmanship, and playability rather than overhead.

Zager guitars use a nut width that balances comfort and spacing, designed to feel natural for most hands rather than extreme narrow or wide dimensions.

Yes.
Zager guitars are built using solid woods for the top, back, and sides, which allows them to improve in tone as they age.
