What Our Customers Are Saying About zZounds "I "discovered" zZounds about 2 years ago & was curious about their "Play as you Pay" installment plan. I am a musician so, I am sometimes strapped for cash. Without this plan I would have never been able to get the gear I need!" - customer on May 8th, 2012

"great guitar, great looks,awsome frettboared, great price allaround good guitar."

Sound: I play metal and this guitar sounds well for the style, the pickups are nice not the best but sound awsome for the overall price. Feature: this guitar has an awsome paint job, the fretboared inlays are sick i got the grimm reaper inlays and for the price of this guitar the overall apperance is nice. Ease of Use: this guitar actually made me play much better. the only thing i had to get used too was the gap between the bridge and the neck a little smaller than i was used to but no big deal. Quality: for the price the best out there. Value: this is a awsome guitar. thats it. Manufacturer Support: no problems wat so ever good. The Wow Factor: this guitar brings your eyes to happyness instintly, everyone loves the overall look of this guitar. Overall: this guitar i recomend to everyone who loves metal style even if you dont this axe looks sexy and is worth bying, i will keep it for the rest of my life.

Style of Music: metal,hardcore,

"One mean rockin machine"

Sound: The pickups are pretty good. They aren't the greatest but for the hard rock I play they do just fine. If you don't like the pickups you can change them out. Remember the the cost of this guitsr is pretty low considering the inlays on the neck. Feature: The paint job on the body, headstock and inlays on the neck are worth the price of this guitar alone. It would have been an even better deal with a Floyd Rose but the set tail pice also has its advantages. If you brake a string in the middle of a song you are still good to go. If you brake a string with a Floyd Rose you would most likely have to put the guitar down because your tuning would be all out of wack. Ease of Use: Put you favoriet strings on this ax, plug it into you favorite amp and your ready to rock. Quality: I just got this guitar and so far it seems really cool. The paint job is real nice, pickups are ok to get started and like I said before the inlays on the neck are so cool. If you don't like the set up you get out of the box take the time to set it up the way you like it or have someone do it for you. It's no big deal. Value: There is nobody selling a guitar in this price range with cool neck inlays or paint job. Think twice before you pass on this guitar. Every body else selling a guitar with cool neck inlays will charge you at least $699. Manufacturer Support: Don't know The Wow Factor: This is definately an eye catcher of a guitar. Everybody wants a closer look. Overall: Overall if your looking for a decent sounding, eye catching, guitar that wont brake your wallet this is the guitar for you. There is flat out, nobody selling a guitar in this price range with this many eye catching feathers.

Style of Music: Classic rock/New rock
