Drum roll please.........Nash Guitars!



The blue Nash Strat in the foreground. One of the best playing guitars I've ever used. It's the real deal. I bought it the other day and I'm obsessed with it's feel, sound and look and I always thought reliced guitars were lame.

Who else is playing Nash?

I'm thinking of getting a Tele next.

That's sweet. We cranked mine last night after tracking drums and everyone was blown away by the guitar. I cranked my Marshall and was jammin' Hendrix and it sounded spot on. I gotta get a Bassman for it.

If you haven't yet, browse the dealers' websites (linked on nash's site) there are some really cool tele's out there.

I just purchased this one!

Boutique Guitar Exchange: Basses

I have two buddies of mine who are raving about these guitars. Then I saw your post! There are no dealers near me so I am hoping for the best when it arrives early next week. If I am a fan myself, I'll be ordering a shoreline gold 60's Strat!

I bought a blue one too. I compared every Fender in the store to a 100% original '63 Strat. The only one close was a $3,500 custom shop.
A few signature Strats were cool, like the Rory.

But the Nash won out over all of them. Great Hendrix tones with the Lollars.

He does a very good job at the aging, better than most. And the guitars just feel right. I don't own one but I'd like too, and would probably go that route over a Fender Custom Shop (except for the Nocaster- ever one I've picked up is killin'...).

I got a T-60, wonderful in all aspects. The coolest thing is it just feels right in my hands, like its been mine for a very long time.

Absolutely fantastic guitars! I'm sure I'll have one by the end of the year. I want the 50's strat.

Here's my T-50 Roadhouse.I got it a couple of years ago.I scraped the "aged" yellow nitro off of the fingerboard and left it raw...big tone improvement..as well as swapping out the pick ups (Lollars) for a set of Peter Florence Voodoo's.The guitars a killer and gives my original 54 Esquire a kick in the pants.
Scary but true.
Now if I can just kid my kid to give it back to me.....
