Full peace of mind with a 60-Day Money Back Guarantee!

I have aGibson guitar, I have Taylor guitars, and I have a Martin guitar. Along with others. Now I’m pleased to say that I have ZAAR guitar. I’m very pleased with how this guitar plays. Just like any New guitar, you have to let it acclimate to the area that it’s in before you set it up. This guitar did have a higher action than I like, but that was an easy fix. It also had a couple of high frets that were easy to fix also. Thats not a bad thing, actually it’s common in the most expensive guitars, but anyway….This guitar sounds fantastic. It plays easy and it is absolutely beautiful. I think of all of them I have this one is the best looking guitar I’ve ever played or seen. I highly recommend them. I have the. Koa Z960e. I highly recommend if you’re looking for a Guitar this is the place to go, great guitar for a reasonable price.
Also I got this guitar about 5 days earlier than promised, double bonus!!! That’s always a good thing. I hope this helps anyone who’s looking for a new guitar. ( Play until you can’t)
Thank you Zaar guitars

I am writing my review in a format familiar to any YouTuber. I have owned the guitar for 10 days.

I recently purchased Zaar Guitars Z690E during a sale, which included a hard case for under $1000, paired with a reassuring 60-day no-questions-asked return policy. Initially skeptical due to its overseas manufacturing, the policy provided the confidence I needed to proceed. This guitar has thoroughly impressed me, earning a well-deserved 5-star rating for its ease of play, exceptional note clarity, and crazy long sustain (unplugged).

**Unboxing and First Impressions:**
The Z690E arrived well-packaged, with the guitar itself housed in a sturdy hard case. Visually, the guitar is flawless. It features an innovative fretting hand cutaway and a comfortable bevel for the strumming arm—both of which enhance playability and aesthetic appeal.

**Setup and Playability:**
Despite its price tag, the Z690E required some unexpected initial setup. Once adjusted, however, it offered superb playability and acoustic performance that could easily rival higher-priced models. The guitar functions beautifully both unplugged and amplified, allowing for versatile tone adjustments on any rig setup.

**Challenges and Adjustments:**
The main challenges I encountered involved the high E-string breaking during standard tuning and noticeable string tautness. Rotating the tuning post (180 degrees) and moderately tightening the locking knob resolved the string-breaking issue. Additionally, I plan to lower the saddle to address the string tension further. A minor truss rod adjustment and a brief environment acclimation period resolved some fret buzz on the lower strings. While these setups were not anticipated for a guitar at this price point, the quality and performance of the Z690E justified the effort.

**Conclusion:**
In retrospect, had the guitar arrived perfectly set up, I would have felt like I snagged a $2000 guitar for half the price. Considering the adjustments, if I had access to a trusted luthier, even a $200 setup fee would have left me satisfied at a total of $1200. The Z690E remains in tune, plays wonderfully, and looks spectacular. It’s a testament to Zaar’s commitment to design features, quality control with their vendors and all at a price that allows anyone to enjoy the experience of a high end acoustic guitar.

Great guitar I was going to send it back at first because I was looking for something smaller travel size but after playing it for a few days I really like it now I'm thinking of keeping it more to come

I’m sure after time the sound will mellow out even with the density of the wood. It has a bright sound with the strings provided. I will change them this week to the type I use on my 45 year old Guild.
I will update how I feel in a couple of months

Sounds great and looks amazing
