Zion Guitar Technology has created the Bent T model,
a variation of the Maple T model.
The Bent T's figured
maple top is bent down to conform to the back, giving a
gentle slope under the picking forearm. This makes for
a much more comfortable body to play for long periods.
It is a very subtle modification and does not change the
overall appearance of the guitar but after a few hours
on the bandstand, the Bent T just feels better.
The
peghead is now angled back ten degrees and has a body
matching face on it. The truss-rod now adjusts from the
peghead end and features a two-way rod.
Standard is the Neutrik locking jack that is
recessed into the side of the guitar. By use of this
jack, the cable is locked into the guitar until released by
a small button next to the plug using one hand.
