Looking for a ZB

Post by John Robel »

I am looking for a decent ZB. Doesnt need to be a "10", just a player in good shape. Would prefer a d-10 or 11 on e9 but all would be considered. Please reply by PM!~ Thank You, John

I have a very nice SD 11 if interested. It was set up by Greg Jones and plays very well. . Bobby

Real ZB

Post by Rex Blevins »

John;
I have no idea what kind of ZB you are looking for, but I am going to post this guitar of a friend of mine on in the next day or so. This guitar was built by Zane for Bill Simms who was Tom's partner in ZB. The guitar was purchased from Bill's Widow and has not been played out but a couple of times, that is obvious from the pictures. If you are interested you can contact me through the Forum and I can give you the details, etc.

I was wrong, Emmons laquer guitars aren't the prettiest. My God that is like Barbara Eden in her prime.

Want to Thank everyone for their comments. What is so nice about this guitar is the fact Zane built it and it is a "true" ZB mechanism and has remained untouched. :wink:

This looks like a nice one though it is not a 1970. I would guess closer to 1975-76. But if it is a one owner that hasn't been run around it should make a great steel.
