Didn't I read some time back of a fella remanufacturing ZB's? Are they still being made and by whom?

Kevin, I am so glad that you have updated the roller nuts. That was one major problem of the ZB's and I played, sold and repaired them for many years. I finally solved the roller nut problem with ball bearings.
They always had a great sound, and I hope you still have it in the new ones.

| Lonnie, I am making new ZB's with modern bellcrank mechanics under the name Retro Steel Guitars. I am only producing 3-4 per year. They are strictly a custom build. |

Any other ZB replica owners out there with a picture of your guitar? I'd like to hear about the guitar and its playability.It's a very beautiful looking steel.The ZB look is attractive.
