Hand inlayed, one piece at a time. Yes, it is a LOT of work. But it is the only way we have found to achieve the classic look of our latest Pearl Front model... "The Portrait." Add our acid-etched appointments, custom Di'Marzio single coil pickups and you have our most recognizable and celebrated guitar. A very special instrument, and the pinnacle of “The Elements of Tone.”
Our select African mahogany, hand rubbed satin finish is not only beautiful, but feels like nothing else we have ever played. Smooth and silky, it is comfort at its best.
Deluxe Gotoh 510 tuners, scalloped bone nuts, and ebony fingerboards… from top to bottom, we have considered every aspect of a Zemaitis guitar. Our goal is to allow players the freedom to create, and to inspire you to find your own unique voice.
