@Keysalagain @John_Ripley @Lulz4l1f3 My friend’s Zager 900ce is not labeled as “Made in America” I assume it is “parts manufactured in Indonesia; assembled in the US”. Fit & finish are virtually flawless. It had a little hump at the 13th & 14th frets, the saddle slot is cut a little too low & the saddle’s B & E slopes needed a sharper edge (buzzing). I had to file all slots on the bone nut. It sounds good, rich but not open. I was able to low action & .004” 1st fret clearance without buzz.

So your rating?

Compared to a couple magical A+ guitars (Larrivée & Martin dreadnoughts):
Ease of play: C
Tone: B possibly B+ with brighter strings. I used Pearse phosphor bronze mediums which I love on one my acoustics (cedar top, mahogany sides, back, & neck). I suggested medium strings as the Zager’s owner is a rhythm player and I could get very low action without buzzing compared to the Zager light gauge strings.
General fit and finish: A
Aesthetics: A
