About the Builder (from Wikipedia):
After the retirement of Tony Zemaitis in 2000, Zemaitis Guitars is now a guitar-manufacturing company based in Tokyo, Japan. The company's guitars are based on designs by the English luthier Tony Zemaitis. The company is led by his son, Tony Zemaitis, Jr., and produces both electric and acoustic guitars.
After Zemaitis Sr.'s death in 2002, the Zemaitis family continued the guitar-building business in Tokyo, offering both high-end hand-built guitars, and a more affordable "Greco Zemaitis" line of guitars. The current production is based on original drawings by Tony Zemaitis Sr.
