    Zon basses - is everything OK ?

    No response to emails. I am convinced my order is a piece of wood and a neck blank. They give you just enough lip service to make you go away for a while. Gave them the benefit of the doubt with Covid but this is ridiculous . Sometimes you have to cut your losses and move on. Has any one...

    A drop of something sweet does not change the taste of something inherently bitter. I glad this individual received their basses. Do you happen to know how long they waited or how many empty promises were made to them along the way ? What dog do you have in this fight? Thank you Otis

    100% correct. At my estimated delivery date they had not even been started. For the last 7 months neck and body have been done. In the meantime I had another bass built and I am in no rush

    Also depends on who you talk too . Martin always charges more than Joe! Got my fingers crossed. My body and neck have been finished for over 6 months

    Hi everyone, I am like most people on this thread expecting a bass this year. Curious if you have heard of the gloss finish on Zon basses being prone to cracking? Most images online typically show a well taken care of bass with cosmetic cracks especially the legacy models. I am wondering if I...

    Jefus, I have heard that Zinc is soft. Maybe he uses this metal because he makes the 8 string bridge in house and it’s easier to mill. Did he ever explain the use of Zinc over brass for a 8 string? Looks like there are several people including myself that have their basses mostly completed...

    Zon basses - is everything OK ?

    Joe does see all the emails that go to the customer email. At least that is what he told me. Best advice is to send a email requesting to talk directly to Joe and call their office number and leave a message with same request. This has worked for me. Once you speak with Joe he should be able...

    I agree with sharing the the thread. The few lawyers I reached out to never returned my call. Small potatoes for them! The fact that he is still taking deposits and cannot fill his current orders is more than concerning. The deposit is for parts and payday is when the instrument is complete.
