Now, that's a problem for a guitarist such as him. So here's what he did, he visited all major guitar manufacturers and asked to make him an easier to play guitar. However, no one was able to deliver him what he wanted so he decided to make his special guitar himself, thus giving birth to "Zager Guitars".

In Zager Guitar the strings height is lower than the usual you can see in guitars. This way, you won't need to exert too much force or pressure when pushing the chords down. It helps to keep the chords down and for easier guitar playing.Another thing that was customized in Zagers is the strings spacing.

That's why in customized spacing it helps you play the guitar better and easier.
Next that was customized are the strings itself. These unique strings prevent a guitarist from hurting the fingers badly.
