We're witnessing the rise of the Dwasifarians. Their preferred hair style will be Dreadnought locks.

That’s right, and we’ve already patented that hairstyle. It’s AMAZING, and you’ll never have to use a comb or wash your hair ever again!!

Maybe I'll email that Nigerian prince back and see if he want to get in on this...

Instead of worshipping Haile Selassie, Emperor of Ethiopia, the way that Rastafarians do, we Dwasifarians worship King Zog, the last king of Albania.

Seriously, that was the guy’s name: THAT, at least, I’m not making up.

As for the theological underpinnings for untrammeled Zog-worship, I mean, with a name like “Zog,” how can you not?

Bruce,
That made my morning.

I'm from Long Island, not far from where Buzzy grew up in Syosset, and in all these years, that logical little play on words never dawned.

Thanks,
Howard Emerson

Yes, and the headstock would look a bit odd...



Might have to stick to 12 strings.

Heck, why be shy? Let’s go with 18 string guitars! Once you’ve dwasifarized your guitar, you’re going to want people in the next COUNTY to hear it!

Buzzy is also a "legendary" guitarist (I have always loved his solo on Stevie Wonder's "Superwoman").

I read through the patent, and it is (as I understand it) simply an adjustable bridge as commonly found on almost any electric guitar, but made out of wood instead of metal. This allows the acoustic player to individually adjust the saddle for each string to get the best intonation.

I just popped onto the zager website, and I could be mistaken, but it appears that most of the guitars they sell don’t use the patented bridge. But they do make a lot of claims about playability based on superior setup. https://zagerguitar.com/easy-play-comfort/

That's a good design. I'm going to have my wife's sister in Peoria do them.

It'll be an inland in-law inlay in Illinois.
