I just saw a nice-looking ZB online at this address:
http://portland.craigslist.org/msg/94501075.html

It's a blue single neck 3X4....$600 in the Portland area. Seems like a great deal for this guitar. I know little about these guitars, besides the fact that they have a great reputation.

If you can't connect using the above address, google "ZB Custom" and it's the first link.

Any comments? Someone's probably already spotted it, but I figured I'd throw it on here in case someone might get a deal.

Hey Chris and Forumites:

This looks like a student model ZB that was upgraded to a four lever guitar. Note the metal (square) frame. This is still a good find, but just thought you might like my two cents worth.

The changer on these guitars is just like the pro model, and someone took the time and trouble to drill holes for the levers in to the back metal apron of the guitar. The pickup, if it's the original pickup, has just one setting - unlike the 3 position/coil pickup on the pro models. Notice also, that there is a very simple pedal bar. Good luck to whomever ends up getting this. They are good guitars, and, with 4 levers installed already, will provide hours and hours of ZBest sound.

All ZBest,
Larry

I just inquired about it. Perfect color, short legs. Thanks for the heads-up.
