The Steel Guitar Forum

The above link leads to a ZB custom D10. It is also for sale on EBay. I have made a bid on this but a few players are advising to stay away from this guitar as they can be a bugger to set up and keep in tune. Does anyone have an opinion as to whether this ZB is worth the cost or trouble? What is a fair price for this steel? I love the look of this ZB but a little concerned I may be in over my head. I have been playing for a little over a year and and I am taking lessons from the legendary Larry Labeck. Any thoughts are greatly appreciated. The auction ends in about a week. Thanks friends. Dale

That link is no good any more. ZB's can be a pain to work on. But, if you really take the time to really understand how they work, they are great guitars. I owned two of them, and I don't remember any tuning issues.

thanks richard, he must have sold it locally as he posted above his ebay aution he may end it at any time. dang, i was the highest bidder and probably would have won it!

It's still active on ebay...the pics of it look as clean as one could hope for...but the undercarriage mechanics look like a complex way to solve a simple problem. That said, i've never seen or worked with the mechanics first hand so maybe it's a brilliant solution...
