The Cicero is an instrument born from shadow and built for the spotlight. Cloaked in deep black from headstock to hardware and accented with a bold flash of color, the Cicero delivers the speed and bite metal players crave while effortlessly shifting into blues, rock, or ambient territory.

Designed to cut through any mix and ignite every performance, the Cicero Black isn’t just another guitar. It’s a statement. The Limited Edition Artist Series is an even greater statement on full display!

The Zaar Cicero Black is a modern electric built to thrive in any musical landscape. Its sleek all-black gloss finish, highlighted with a vivid accent color on the body top, creates a look as dynamic as the tones it delivers. Whether you’re chugging heavy riffs, bending blues lines, or exploring indie textures, the Cicero responds with clarity, power, and feel. Play with authority. Perform with confidence.

If you're looking for a timeless guitar with a modern look, outstanding feel and bold presence, look no further than the brand new Zaar Cicero Black!

Interview excerpt from
Guitar Thrills magazine with
Nashville artist Leilani Kilgore

Guitar Thrills: You've recently been performing with the Zaar Cicero guitar—what drew you to that instrument in the first place?

Leilani: I have always secretly wanted a shredder guitar, and the Cicero is PERFECT for that. It is a Dodge Challenger on steroids, with a small enough body that you can fly around on that thing with zero inhibition. It's lightweight, well balanced, and the pickups offer an astounding range of tone. It makes me feel like the little metal monster I've always hoped I could be someday.

Guitar Thrills: How has the Zaar Cicero guitar influenced your tone and playing style compared to what you were using before?

Leilani: Speed, baby!!! That guitar just begs for fast riffs and devastating drop C chugs. I want my playing to be heavier, cleaner, and scarier than ever. You just can't get that kind of sound out of a Tele or Strat.

Guitar Thrills: Are there specific qualities of the Zaar Cicero guitar—like its feel, response, or pickup character—that have changed the way you approach riffs or solos?

Leilani: I feel like the guitar gets just as excited as I do the more aggressively my playing gets. It eggs me on, like it's saying "oh yeah? What else?". You could use the guitar for just about anything, the pickups and neck are that user-friendly, but I feel like it thrives on a gain channel and fast picking. The Cicero handles articulation wonderfully. And yet, it is just as happy to let chords ring out for as long as you'd like.
