Thread Name: Girly Guitars
Subject: RE: Girly Guitars
Some have accused this guitar of being a bit girly, but as it is slightly larger than a J200, it'e probably only for really big girls!

Actually it's a rather good Zemaitis copy that I acquired from Hanks in Denmark Street, London via eBay, and since I will probably never be able to buy a real Zemaitis as prices are now stratospheric, it will do me for a "different" guitar. The model name is Zephyr, and I would love more information about the makers, Custom Guitar Craft, as the only luthier of that name I have been able to locate is in Wooloomaba, Australia, but Hanks said it had been made for the Japanese market. A Google image search turned up a similar black guitar on a Japanese Zemaitis copy owners' site (sic!), but my Japanese runs to "Hai" and "Sushi" and that's about it, so the information given there was of no use to me.

Has anyone else come across one of these guitars?
