“It has been a long time since I debuted my original line of guitars at the West Coast NAMM show back in 1977. I was a 19-year-old rocker with a passion for guitars. Guitars I wanted to play simply were not being made by anyone. My only solution was to build them myself. I wanted guitars that were a bit more radical looking, but played like a hot knife through butter. These were the guitars I built. With sculpted necks that seemed effortless to play and pickups that perfectly voiced the tone woods. Big headstocks and longer string lengths that added to the unique tone and feel of my guitars. And brilliant finishes that made them attractive on stage.” — Dean B. Zelinsky Visit Sarasota Guitar Company and pick the DBZ guitar that makes your own statement.
