The Zeal 

Built to offer the most articulate tonality possible

The Zeal's body design inherently increases sustain and makes extremely low action possible while offering increadible stability.  The deep carves of the heel and tummy cut allow for a completely uninhibited playing experience.  The result is a single cut that is extremely expressive and responsive. 

AESTHETIC CONFIGURATIONS:

CHAMFERED - A hand carved bevel travels around the instrument, varying in thickness and depth.  This is a great option if you want a high grade or exotic wood "droptop". Contrasting accent layers and veneers are also available.

AERO-CARVED - The body is fully carved to be as ergonomic as possible.  The carve of the top falls away smoothly, blending the player and instrument together.  *This option os not available for instruments with a drop-top.
