Zemaitis Superior Model Acoustic Natural 1971

THE SUPERIOR ZEMAITIS

We are happy to offer the following instrument from one of the world's most respected British luthiers, the late Tony Zemaitis. The guitar, a “Superior” model, is one of the maker's most prestigious models and was custom built for acclaimed British guitarist Glenn Goring of the progressive folk band Comus. Tony Zemaitis produced only a relatively small number of “Superior” instruments during his lifetime, each individually handcrafted to the requirements of professional musicians. His client list reads like a who's who of rock history, including Eric Clapton, George Harrison, Ron Wood, Marc Bolan, Jimi Hendrix, James Hetfield, Ronnie Lane, Greg Lake, etc. Details as follows.
