You had better believe it is. I just received my new SD-10 Hybrid with 4 & 6 about 14 months after I placed my order. This guitar is awesome. The top and upper back are curly mahogany and the front and lower back are figured maple. A small upper and lower strip of curly mahogany were placed between the metal and mother of pearl inlay to accent the figured maple front. It plays and sounds every bit as good as it looks. The Hybrid sound is beyond my expectations. I have made no adjustments to this guitar. It was set up perfect right out of the case. I sure wish someone would let me send them a couple of pics to post for me. I would like to show everyone why a Zum is well worth the wait.

Hi! Billy, I plan on going to Dallas next March. The more I play the Hybrid, the more I love it. I am extremely satisfied with the looks,tone and pedal action of this guitar. I have owned at leat 10 new Zums which were all good. This one is special.

Even though I haven't played a Zum, I would love to play one. I hear they are wonderful steel guitars. I remember seeing and hearing a Zumsteel for the first time and I can remember how amazing it sounded! I love Zumsteels too! Brett, Emmons S-10, Morrell lapsteel, GFI Ultra D-10
