As hard as it was to wait for such a quality, one of a kind guitar to be built, this was sooo well worth the wait. This is clearly one of my nicest guitars and is on its way to be my favorite. The z-glide neck is so slick and the fact that you can engrave any name or whatever onto it is really a game changer. The sound options are beyond compare and I will need to spend a lot of time with it to see what all it can do. You will not find another luthier with this quality and options to offer for your build at the price points Dean Zelinsky offers. Thank you Dean and crew for putting so much love into my new prize possession. Cheers, Terry M.
