Bent T
We start with our classic Radicaster design, with the standard choice of Swamp Ash, Alder, Basswood, or Mahogany body woods. To that, we add a gorgeous Flame or Quilt Maple top – molded, or “bent” to a shaped body, to create a sloped shoulder for comfortable playing.
The Bent T is available with traditional pickguard-mounted or elegant rear-routed electronics.

Bent T
“The finish is gem-like… The book matched bird’s eye top is perfect, and bent to the contour of the strat body style. The intonation from the factory was perfect. I have never seen this kind of attention to detail – each is essentially a custom, handmade instrument. The fretwork on this guitar sets a new standard– no dead spots, each perfectly polished and crowned. The nut is on par with the rest of the guitar’s excellent workmanship. No loose controls or loose anything for that matter. If I played the guitar as well as Zion makes them, I would already be a legend.”
