THE PRIVATE LABEL...PLAIN AND SIMPLE
WHY BUY DIRECT?
With my "farm-to-table" approach, I cut out the middleman...saving you hundreds while still delivering a much higher quality instrument. I sell a big, fat-hand carved, single-cut with killer humbuckers, great flame top, chambered body, locking tuners and a brilliant finish for only $1499. Or a three single-coil guitar with a compound radius fretboard, killer cloth-wired pickups, flame maple top, locking tuners, graphite nut and string retainer, two-post trem and a brilliant sunburst finish all for only $1349.
“I only sell internet direct here in the USA…we cut out the middleman. My Private Label Guitars are 30% less than all the competition with better features…you get a much better guitar at a really great price."
FROM OUR SETUP BENCH TO YOUR DOOR
Every Dean Zelinsky Private Label Guitar ships directly from our bench to your door…new in a box. Not played by hundreds of kids on a Saturday afternoon in a local music store. I went overseas and set up production to build my guitars old school again. Hand made the exact same way I did it in the late '70s and early '80s. Necks cut on shapers, then spindle sanded…bodies band-sawed out, then cut on shapers…lots of hand sanding. Arched tops cut on old-fashioned dupli-carvers. Hand sprayed and buffed.  Each guitar a unique hand-crafted masterpiece, the way it was when all the great guitars being collected today were being made.

"Simply amazing...
Besides being gorgeous, this guitar (Tagliare Standard) is built with unrivaled quality and craftsmanship. Dean has done a wonderful job with the design of this instrument and it shines through in absolutely every way and in every detail. And besides being probably one of the most beautiful guitars I own and have owned, it plays just as beautifully."

"Best out-of-the-box setup I've experienced...
My Strettavita Z-Glide BT Custom arrived in perfect condition. Setup is flawless -- really -- this is the best out-of-the-box setup I've experienced. The guitar is gorgeous -- looks just like the website photos. Mine has a very nice, flamey veneer. The paintjob is very well done. The guitar's construction is spot-on -- I couldn't find any construction flaws or paint boo-boos. Very impressive! Strict quality control at all stages of construction is apparent here."

"Z-Glide Neck exceeded my expectations...
Just received mine today........excellent quality, gorgeous guitar. The Z-Glide neck exceeded my expectations and the overall setup was one of the best I've ever seen on a new guitar.......flawless medium/low action and the nut is actually cut to the perfect height. Almost every new guitar I've purchased over the past few years (Fender, Gibson, even boutique) needed a new nut ASAP, not this one! And it sounds great. Thumbs up to Dean for producing an affordable quality instrument that can compete with anything I've owned. I sense a Tagliare Z-Glide Custom in my future.

"This Guitar is a Keeper...
"The Z-glide neck felt funny for the first few minutes grabbing it. But I can definitely move faster. Then I A/B it to a finish neck. There is not going back! Thank you Dean!
