Zion Guitar Technology presents their version of a 50+
year old design. It was created in the "Fifties", thus the
inspiration for the model name "The Fifty". Zion took what they felt was the
best of the traditional idea and added improvements
to it, creating an evolved classic instrument.
The Fifty has a ten degree angled-back peghead,
eliminating the need for "string trees" that cause tuning
problems. The tight fit of the neck to the neck-pocket in
the body increases the natural sustain and resonance
of the lightweight swampash body.
Individual bridge saddles can set accurate intonation.
The Fifty eatures standard Zion/Neutrik recessed locking jack
and natural wood faux binding.
Zion also offers a range of options and finishes on the Fifty. For more information, visit their web site at www.zionguitars.com. |
