Zager Guitars is giving $1 million in guitars to children
Denny Zager found his first guitar in a trash can. With everything he learned on that one guitar he wrote the biggest one hit wonder in world recording history, and created one of the most well known guitar companies on the planet. Denny Zager now wants to give back.

Jones Elementary School would like to say a big THANK YOU to Zager Guitars for the generous gift of 18 guitars for our students! The beauty of this gift is that these guitars will be a HUGE help in getting our students exposed and learning to play the guitar at an early age, which down the road, will only help to support our high school music program which includes Guitar Techniques Level 1 all the way through Level 4! Jones Elementary would also like to thank Brenda Akins for nominating us. So thankful to get these!
Strumming for Vets, John Rola
A few weeks ago I got a call from Denny Zager Jr. in Lincoln Nebraska. His Father Denny Sr. from the 60's fame, Zager & Evans ( In the year 25,25 ), have been building Guitars since 1969. They Donated two of their Easy Play guitars to the Strumming for Vets Organization and I got them in today and they are great!!!! Right out of the Box the neck felt fantastic. They space their strings a little wider apart and you really feel the difference.
Anyways, Many Thanks to Denny Zager Sr. and Denny Jr. and all the gang down at Zager Guitars for putting this together!! I'm selling my Taylor and getting one of your guitars instead!!
You gotta check them out!!!
