Zemaitis Custom Deluxe Superior Metal Front

Original Tony Zemaitis Metal Front from Tony’s penultimate year of production, the guitar has been stored since day one so it is 100% perfect with zero playwear, highest specifications possible with all hand made Dural metal parts, engrave pickup surrounds, hand made proprietary Dural bridge and tailpiece, the engraving is all the work of Danny O’brien, the back plates are also engraved which is very unusual and expensive feature, more provenance than you could ever need including photos of TZ with guitar.Mediocre metal fronts can command $35,000, Tony passed away in 2002 and he retired in 2000, this is among the very last metal front built if not the very last one, if it was possible to order a new guitar from Tony today and you wanted the best of the best, this is what it would look like on day one.
