What's your favorite?
Couple of beauties heading off to Romania yesterday. I'm lovin' the Trans-Blue . . . what do ya think? . . . Chocolate . . . Blue . . . Chocolate . . . no Blue. It is a dilemma. Certainly I love the double edge Fusions . . . but I'm thinking Blue . . . no Chocolate. Check them out at Fly Music, Romania.
Soon I'll get zeta jazz fusion 5 strings model JV45 😍 it's take 20 days Can i ask if will arrive on 20 days or just making it ? And how much time it will take to arrive in the express shipping? Thank you so much ❤️
Mugu, Isn't Zeta the violin Jean Luc Ponty plays with?
How much?
The blue is on mine😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆
I think a big percent of Zeta Violins are sold in Romania,am I right?almost any musician here must have one.Nice work and sound,however😍
I got to see Evan's octave violin last night. SOOO pretty!!!
Love the blue.
Very nice. Zeta the best !!!
Viori Adevărate 😀😀😀😀😀😀😀

Special treat this week . . . Evan Garr joins Jean-Luc Ponty on stage, Wednesday June 21st at Chene Park - Detroit, MI. If you're in the area you don't want to miss this.
For the past few weeks Evan's been trying out one of ZETA's Jazz Modern C_Octave's and he's sent me a couple of videos. One is an improv over JLP's 'Mystical Adventures Part V'. As you know, Evan is a 'monster' player, with awesome command of his bow . . . and watching him play gave me an idea. He's been playing our JV45 Jazz Fusion Violin for 15 years and I knew he'd prefer ZETA's Fusion styling in his Octave. So I got busy . . . and here's a peek at Evan's new C_Octave . . . a custom Trans-Blue Flame Maple 'Monster' JV45.
Good luck this week Evan on your own 'Mystical Adventure' with Jean-Luc! . . . and enjoy yourself my friend.
Thank you Steve! You are very gracious. This Octave violin Rocks!!! 😎
You go my spiritual brother you are so talented that that violin you play mate outstanding music calm and peaceful
Used to work with the late great Noel Pointer. He had a blue Barcus Berry and a white Zeta
Nice Evan I am very proud of you I really am.keep your dream rolling and don't stop for nothing🎼🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
Dope!! The best to ever do it!!
Thx for the post im so going to this concert
I wish I was there! Love Evan!

From Dallas, TX . . . Marek Eneti shares with us his rock violin cover (a scorching hot shred) of Joe Satriani's 1987 hit 'Surfing with the Alien'. Marek is running his custom ZETA SV24 ('Gabriel's Wings') wireless and through the GR-55 using the 'Heavy Guitar' patch. I've been looking forward to Marek's session recording ever since we shipped out this beauty in January. Marek said he was going into the studio to crank up the GR-55 . . . and that he did. FANTASTIC my friend!
Be sure to watch the full version found here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=cUBlGT1EQCs
To see more close-up pics of Marek's custom ZETA SV24 Strados check out our January 21 post. (www.facebook.com/zetaviolins/posts/1174590062654712)
IMPRESSIVE!! . . . youtu.be/SlqLUawIkOc
Many many favorites played that night at Big Sky Resort but 'Halloween Rehearsal', a 1987 Russ Barenberg tune, stands out . . . nice tune and a very interesting year indeed . . . aah the memories. Our new ZETA mando gets a work out on this one.
Ironically . . .10,000 mandolins and 24 years further on down the road . . . I reckon it's time for the '1st true ZETA built acoustic mandolin in history' . . . and for me . . . #10,000 and 1 . . . or somewhere there a-bouts. My good bud Tom Murphy has been breaking this pony in and together with the able assistance from the other 'Lone Mountain Trio' members, John Lowell on Guitar and Kevin Fabozzi on Mando-Cello . . . a beautiful night up on Lone Mountain at Big Sky Resort, Montana . . . was the perfect setting for a good work out and test ride. Giddy-Up . . .
I'm digging this. Glad to see Zeta related stuff.
incredible. Good work.

You're an artist Steve!
Price?
Beautiful. God luck in their journey.
Great finish!
Wow ! Supprrr
żebym mógł takich choć dotknąć :(
They look great
gorgeous
Hi, I'm the owner of a zeta violin I would like to know what price the violin you posted on facebook? Thanks a good day
You know when you're feeling lonely so you decide to have a party and invite just your Cello friends over. Things are going well and then right when someone says, 'Let's take a group picture!", Roasted Charlie shows up with his 2nd cousin . . . you know, Billy Bob Bass. All you want is a pic with your best Cello buds . . . but to be polite and inclusive . . . you take a 2nd picture. Then the Alder twins shout, 'We need a diversity shot!' . . . and before you know it Charlie and Bob need a portrait to update their Facebook profile. Finally the jokes start flying, 'What do you get when you cross a Roasted Fusion Cello with a Roasted Fusion Bass? . . . a Roasted Fusion Baby' . . . and that's when you realize it's just not that bad being alone sometimes.
good..
I'm loving Ms. Jo A-Ram's latest cover . . . 'Hot Stuff' (Donna Summer_1979) . . . and she's loving her new ZETA Jazz Modern . . . Roasted Maple Top & Neck, Cremona Burst with Custom Inlay and Monogram. You can check out the full version of Ms. A-Ram's video here: youtu.be/1mgLSjR3YVE
Taking off today and arriving soon at Electric Violin Shop, Durham, NC. A gorgeous JV45 Roasted/Roasted Maple Dbl-Edge with Roasted Maple neck.
Cat costa vioara zeta in s u a
Looks familiar!!!
Recent sighting . . . a ZETA Crop Circle . . . ready for an early Spring harvest. Roasted Fusions and Classics ripe for the picking. I'm seeing some Naturals, as well as Chocolate or Cremona Bursts. Add a couple of Flame Maple outriggers, perhaps Trans-Blue or Red? . . . what's your flavor?
ZETA's Strados Fusion 5-String Cello . . . you know you're almost there when the only thing left is sending the case mock-up off for production . . . yea . . . and onward we go.
Will be anxious to try one!! Hope all is well everyone!! 🎶
Wow! I didn't realize you still made cellos too!
I love my zeta cello! 🙌
Gorgeous Trans-Blue ZETA C_Octave Jazz Modern arriving in Detroit today. Can't wait to hear this one! Me thinks a special treat coming our way . . . stay tuned.
This is the one I have (and have had since 2001)... LOVE IT! ❤
what price
I know a certain someone who played a blue violin in high school in Detroit a long time ago. Curious to hear this chin cello.
lovely work, Steve.
The custom inlaid 'Heartbeat' Jazz Fusion (JV44) we made for Nicolas Draps was a show stopper . . . and one of my favorites for sure. His control and self-expression with his new 'Heartbeat' is . . . spectacular! . . . so creative . . . Love it! Thanks for sharing with us Nico.
Bon je vois qu'on s'éclate déjà là ;-) Enjoy !!

I love the processes involved in the start of a new batch. The sorting and matching of beautiful wood for . . . color, flame & grain. Then the layout and band-sawing in prep for machining, shaping & gluing. ZETA's next batch of Roasted Flame and Birdseye for Jazz Fusions and Jazz Classics is well on its way . . . oh boy!

“Gonna be some lookers for sure . . . including a couple Jazz Classics w/roasted birdseye. … t.co/bFgOtPXF8M”Finishing up on the set-up bench today . . . all dressed up and heading south. Some amazing roasted maple continues to make its way thru our shop here at ZETA. You can check this one out when it arrives at the Electric Violin Shop next week. The wood . . . a natural wonder . . . the instrument a 'Natural' beauty.

“5-String JV45 DblEdg (Rstd Rstd Rstd) 'Natural' beauty heading out to Electric Violin Shop… t.co/knX3TTvRHz”Taking flight to Dallas, TX . . . 'Gabriel's Wings' in Pearl, Gold Pearl and Stone. The Chocolate Burst finish on this Roasted Maple Top/Neck perfectly compliments Marek ENETI's custom inlaid ZETA SV24 Strados Modern. Heading into the studio with this beauty next week . . . I can't wait to hear it soar under Marek's masterful bow. Cranking up the GR-55 I believe!
Since the rebirth of Zeta you've raised the bar. Unfortunate that the previous owners tarnished what was a good reputation. Nice to see you bring it back. Those chocolate burst instruments are stunning!

This double-edged roasted maple Jazz Fusion (Chocolate Burst) JV44 is en route to Belgium for Nicolas Draps. When Nicolas shared his inlay idea with me I was like . . . wow, why didn't I think of that!? As we worked out the details of his instrument Nico shared how his music flow's from his heart . . . his very soul, and his playing here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=1oM7R9S_GcE&nohtml5=False
(2:30 . . . 5:00 on) and here:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=7MpgwUdEW4A&nohtml5=False clearly demonstrate his ability to dig deep and express himself. Do a little search and you'll find other examples like this self described 'moody' piece: www.youtube.com/watch?v=1RaTAk_lIlw
As for his new custom ZETA . . . oh heart be(at) still!
This is why I asked you... Thanks for this machine!!!! Yeaaaaaah B-)
Dokładnie takie bym chciał !!! <3 Są niesamowite !!!
Beautiful instrument!
I love the wood on this. How much would it cost to have this wood made 5 string acoustic violin/viola?
Being set free from production this week at ZETA were several customs. This 1st one heading out to Ms. Jo A-Ram in South Korea. A beautiful Strados Modern w/Roasted Maple Top/Neck, Cremona Burst, custom inlay 'JA' in Pearl & Stone, and custom Logo. I love Ms. A-Rams' covers of 'Unchained Melody' and 'California Dreamin' . . . found here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=bHdH-tESvCs and here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=soWw8ksUGl0. Visit Ms. A-Ram on Facebook . . . www.facebook.com/0523joaram.
I think mine needs to be serviced... how can I go about doing that?
Miss a-ram jo! I wish your violin skill will be influenced with not only in the nation but also in the world . We are recognizing your violin sounds will resonate through all over the world .
Just gorgeous!!!
Wow ~! Fantastic....
Moje marzenie to takie skrzypce ! <3
Gorgeous instruments!
So how does the sound of ZETA's Jazz Acoustic Pro stack up to the JLP? With Gabe Gladstein in town last week we had the perfect opportunity to find out. We were recording a long awaited looping session with Gabe and thought . . . 'well lets throw this into the mix'.
Such distinct sounds, but I love both. What a pleasure to play them, and great as always to visit you all!
Love it!
felicitaciones, buen tema ¡¡¡
Lots of recording here at ZETA over the holiday week. We were sending off our 1st Jazz Acoustic Pro [MIDI] to Bulgaria . . . so we enlisted Kaito Irizarry to stop by and demonstrate the plugged in perspective of this instrument. Kaito loved exploring its' unique sonic signature with the GR-55. Interesting to hear the 'warm character' the acoustic body adds to the ZETA Jazz bridge sound . . . yeah buddy!
Pre-release items like this will be featured on our Instagram and Twitter feeds. Our 5-string Cello (ZETA's 1st) just needs a few more knobs, some serious road testing, and were off . . .
Gabe Gladstein is going to be here at the ZETA shop on Tuesday with his JLP5 for a looping session. Can't wait! Follow Us and you'll be the 1st to check it out on your Twitter or Instagram feed.
