Yes! I LOVE Nash guitars.

@toddkelly6181 Год назад

Absolutely! I've owned many Strats over the last 3 decades - 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s Fenders mostly...but the best so far has been my 2008 Nash S-57

Yes he makes them better then fender. He used to build 100% fender replicas on ebay. He got way to big too fast. Fender gave him a s/d order on using the fender logo.

Posted in another reply. Two of my four main stage guitars (Tele style, Strat style, R8 Les Paul, Es 335) are Nash. S-57 and T-52... and I don't even really care for relic'd instruments. They just played and sounded better than any Fender or F style I'd previously picked up. But quality control and consistency: Picking up any two of the exact same model, one I'll love and one I wouldn't touch again, and for me it's been about one in four or one in five that I've played that I like.

@greygardens81 Год назад

I have an S63. I was never a fan of relics until I picked it up in a store. It was one of those “I cannot leave without it” moments and now it’s my #1. Best feeling neck I’ve ever played and the lollars are incredible sounding. Nash licenses the headstock shape from fender. That’s how they can use those parts.

@markallen2984 Год назад

@Cjwilly333 Год назад

Normally nash doesn’t clear coat over the work area. That was probably a request from a customer. Most nash guitars are custom made from stores like ours. You can have them do almsot anything. And that neck shape was definitely a custom order. Normally nashes have a chunky more modern neck. Kinda close to modern Gibson 50s standard neck size. But I’m sure they would do more thin style. Just pay attention to the listing If you are looking for one. That neck is referred to as a “boat” neck. I wish you did a bit more research on these wonderful instruments. Nash is one of the best in the bizz. They have better output then any modern fender you will try. Even most custom shop fenders fall short to them. As nash are known as custom shop killers at the Chicago music exchange. Don’t let nostalgia of fender sway you’re idea of them. They are fantastic

@YTPartyTonight Год назад

@@looking_33 They're far from garbage. Decal logos don't tell anything and they certainly don't make anything good. Properly selected and dried wood, good fretwork, snug neck-pocket fitment, proper alignment of neck-strings-pickups-bridge, good electronics and clean wiring fundamentally make good guitars. Anyone and everyone who knows well made guitars knows this. There's not a thing in them that's junk. Their setups from factory come at about 8 out of 10 by pickiest standards.

I have a JM63 that is absolutely incredible. We end up using that guitar in damn near everything we record though I have a large collection of vintage and new guitars. It just has that mojo that makes it have that vintage tone with modern capabilities

@afootlongdingledong674 Год назад

From what I know they build their offsets with an increased neck angle and a special tremolo system for better sustain and string action. Is it really as good as everyone describes it being?

@tonyhill1141 Год назад

It has a mastery bridge and I’m not sure about the tremolo or how it differs from the Fender. I know they lined the pick up beds with copper and there is no hum and they sound great with distortion or overdrive. That guitar has become the sound of the band. I have a couple nice Fender Jazzmasters and the Nash blows them away.

@maxpeck4154 11 месяцев назад

@@tonyhill1141I've considered a JM63 but I don't care for the roller bridge that they come with. Do you know if the bridge holes on yours had to be filled and re-drilled to accommodate the Mastery bridge or was it just a matter of swapping out the thimbles and popping it in?

@tonyhill1141 11 месяцев назад

I don’t see any fill ins. I bought it from a luthier and he copper lined the pickups and put on the mastery. I’ve played other ones that just don’t sound as good as this one but don’t get me wrong they were all quality guitars. I’m probably just biased for mine.

@maxpeck4154 11 месяцев назад

@@tonyhill1141 Understandably so! I was just curious. I've had 2 Novo Serus Js with Mastery bridges and vibratos and one Mexican road worn Jazzmaster with a vintage style bridge that I put a Mastery vibrato on and the Mastery hardware is just flawless. I know replacing a vintage style bridge with a Mastery requires boring/drilling the post holes to a slightly larger size, which is no biggie, but I wasn't sure about the post spacing or the hole size of the roller bridge that Nash uses.

I accidentally walked into a boutique guitar shop one day and walked out with a Nash T63. I never had any interest in teles but I fell in love with it. Ended up buying an S57 not long after that. They aren't collectors items (though I've kept my eye on the second hand market and they definitely hold their value) but they're great to play.

So much so that I had to get another. I know they are a little expensive but I will have these guitars for the rest of my life. Lollar pick ups are thee best pick ups too. Just ask Jason Isbell. I play in two bands and can play as hard as I like with the Nash’s and they stay in tune. My Gibsons are good but I feel I have to be more gentle with em.

@dondorval7503 Год назад

I made a double cut telecaster in 97, designed the body and routed it as well. It’s made out of one piece Honduran Mahogany. I should have patterned it. It’s modeled after a 72 thin line Tele, fender engraved humbuckers, high output.

@RUSST1981 Год назад

Cool review! I have a 2019 S-63 in grape metallic and it’s fantastic. It’s got a “normal” medium C neck shape…I’m guessing your review piece was a custom order with a huge honkin’ neck. I find myself actually playing mine more than my Fender Custom Shop (not reliced). Also, for what it’s worth, if you contact Nash with a question or issue, they’ll respond QUICKLY. Even traded a few emails with the man himself. Very friendly folks who seem to love what they do.

@RUSST1981 Год назад

Oh…but I hate those cases. They SEEM fancy and I love the form factor (they don’t take up a lot of space), but they’re cheaply made and the latches and interiors do not hold up. Both of my Nashes live in G&G Fender cases now.

@jimmyjames2022 Год назад

Sounds awesome! Love Nash's choice of Lollar pickups in interesting and beautiful body configurations. I like the 3xHB Wayfarer, a way better 'Wilshire' than Epi's double cut take. Going to go see what our local Nash dealer has. Can't stand 'vintage zombie' truss adjustment though (zombie cause neck/head has to be removed).

@ztwilkerson Год назад

I was gifted a S67 in 2014. That guitar changed my life and still does to this day. Mine has a solid ash body so it’s quite a bit heavier than most strats, and the neck profile is the D shape that’s 1.00 at the 1st fret and 1.05 at the 12th. I was never a fan of relics until that guitar came to me and now I only want that one. I loved it so much I played through the frets in just over 3 years. Tone Shop Guitars in Addisonx TX is a Nash Dealer so I had them put stainless frets on and it bends smoother than a roller skate on a greased ice rink. Every guitar player I let try it has this moment where they just go “woah”. The tone is unmatched of any other guitar I’ve ever owned or tried out, some multiple times the amount as mine. Bill Nash is also known to donate guitars to charitable causes, which is pretty cool for a small boutique guitar maker.

@cataclysmicconverter Год назад

That is an awesome story! If any guitar inspires that much, then it's truly worth every penny now matter what it is. What it's all about. I love stainless frets, too. My first experience with them was with Parker, but now the only one I think I have with them is a Music Man Cutlass that plays like butter.

Not sure how I’ll finish it yet. I’m thinking a metallic black with some airbrushed galaxy elements to give it a pop of colour.

@acousticblu Год назад

5:10 That's a weird statement, telling us what our personal reasons should be for buying a relic guitar. I absolutely buy em because I think they look cool. I also make sure it's a quality guitar, but what attracts me to them 1st is the look.

@SL001 11 месяцев назад

Personally it's all about resale value. I gig quite a lot, and there's no way to distinguish the relic job from actual dings post buy, which is a relief when carrying an expensive guitar everywhere.

@GuyNarnarian Год назад

Been looking at the S-81 for an HSS style Strat. They look killer. I'd love it if he would make a Tele with humbuckers and a floyd rose (sort of like John 5 plays, although I like a single coil in the neck). Not sure how easy it is to make custom orders from them, seems like you have to look at their dealers and either go check one out that happens to be close to you or buy online from a dealer.

@user-tz2zz5ij1s Год назад

I think the gloss finish over the top was a request. I have four, none have the gloss over the relicing. The writing at the tip of the headstock used to be store identifier and current number that have been sent to that store. I’m assuming GUY 4 is the same. You can always contact Bill with that identifier and he will give you the information about the order of the guitar. That overcoat over the relic is super out of character. You should definitely review another one with the C shape neck.

@allstopblue5717 Год назад

I quite like it. Looks great, sounds great. Only thing is the abundance of signatures on the headstock including the logo it’s just too much. And also the finishing over the arm wear mark is odd. But yeah I think it’s awesome

Yeah, even if it was custom built for me alone, I wouldn't want my name scribbled in Sharpie at the end of the headstock.

@Thomasfrommygirl Год назад

@@garyburginjr1366 also its a fiesta red sparkle over a 3 tone sunburst. So the parts of the red that are worn away are sunburst. I don’t think the custom shop was doing that sort of thing in 08’. Apparently back in the 60s the bright colors were more popular in other countries, so fender would just spray a new finish over the existing before theyd ship them to international shop. Bill Nash kind of hopped on that train before the Fender custom shop from my understanding.

I own one Nash. I know and have seen enough correlating information to be about 99% certain Nash sources their bodies and necks from Wildwood Manufacturing in Northern CA. Their necks don't run thin, front to back. Bodies are 1-3/4" thick, typical of parts makers including Warmoth. 1-5/8" to 1-1/2" is the correct/typical thickness for Fenders, including '63s. Fretboard radius is 10". The serial and signature on the headstock are Sharpie marker'd.

@garethlewis1279 Год назад

Warmoths licence with fender says that they can not sell the headstock with any kind of branding on it... So them passing them off to Nash and then putting a logo on wouldn't fly. Fender wouldn't stand for it. You're free to put your own logo on a warmoth (I think warmoth even gives you one) .. but not over and over again for resale. I thought you might have taken the neck off to have a look at the heel. If it was warmoth it would have had a turtle in there....

@guitarcd Год назад

I live in WA and own an S-57 and a T-52 Nash. Nash, I believe, is still based in Olympia. For the main parts, body and neck, there are three great makers in the immediate area to them. Warmouth in Puyallup is a licensed by Fender maker, but there is also Best and USA Custom in Tacoma. Both of those makers have headstock designs that... can be creatively sanded with minimum effort into the Fender shape. There is a strong rumor as to which of those three companies Bill Nash gets his parts from, but let's say it's fairly certain that he's using one of those three companies. Lollar pickups are based out of Vashon Island WA. The funny for me about Nash guitars is I'm not really a fan of relic instruments, but the very first Telecaster I played was the best playing and sounding Tele I'd played to date. better than Fender Custom Shop, better than tens of thousand valued vintage ones I played at Emerald City Guitars. And... unfortunately I did not get that one, but when I picked up the white Strat with 57 specs I play, I found the same experience for an S style. And I did eventually find a Nash Tele that seems as good. :) But the main caveat I have to offer with these "magic" instruments that I own s that is that in trying out several Nash instruments, I only find about one in four at the most is a truly "special" one, and the rest I don't like at all. I should also note that the two I own have big baseball bat profile necks, which I love but folks who like "slim taper" or Ibanez RG slim type ones would probably hate.

@@willgo7898 I got mine through Tommy's Guitars in Everett, but they don't still carry them. Looks like Dusty Strings and Thunder Road Guitars.

Seems to be quite a few on Reverb

@@cataclysmicconverter Yes, but that's sort of why I was talking about the quality control. At one point I held my own S-57 and played it, and I love it, and played another S-57 from the wall of the store I was teaching at a few years ago, same specs, same parts... it was a boat anchor with strings. Two of the four main stage guitars, the ones I would never part with, are Nash... but I would never think of dropping two grand on one without playing it first.

@cataclysmicconverter Год назад

@@guitarcd I completely understand that for sure. Even with a few of the LP Standards from the Demo shop I've gotten in the last couple years. The latest was a Classic that everything just felt right about and I love the most. Just subtle differences, but this one resonates like magic and with a slimmer taper neck than I usually prefer. Bottom line is the instant connection they make and when you know, you know.

1:36 you got the labels wrong. JG is for the Jaguar ( right) and JM for the Jazzmaster (left).

Nash also relics actual Les Pauls. A friend had one and it was his main axe for years. He now plays a Baker. He does not keep many guitars around.

@joermnyc Год назад

Not a fan of relic jobs, I’d rather wear out my guitars on my own, or be okay with a used guitar being a little “player grade”. Unfortunately most brands have switched to impervious plastic finishes that will probably live longer than me!

@mattrogers1946 Год назад

Exactly right. Newer guitars sprayed with an inch of poly don't develop a patina....

hey trogly i have a Mayback Strat and Tele they are Czech made guitars and handmade pickups aged for the half price as a fender

@borgassi Год назад

I have a Nash T52, best neck shape I ever played, but the finish at the back of the neck is bare wood and pretty rough, shd I sand it down to 1500grid to make it softer??

@seekur2923 Год назад

could you sand away the gloss on the “worn parts” to really feel the wood underneath or would that most likely ruin it

Nash are absolutely superb, Glenn Hughes plays Nash Basses. When read on their website from the founder about their history and reasoning for existing, it all makes sense.

Noel Gallagher has a Nash jazz master signature.

@nikopappas8484 Год назад

My buddy has a Nash tele and i love how it sounds and plays, but i have the same exact feeling about the "duck bill yellow" coloring on the neck. Not authentic at all , hope Nash takes a closer look at that.

@alanburns4734 Год назад

Did you ever review some of Godin's higher end electric guitars? Montreal Premier, A6 Ultra, Avenue, Kingpin, Derry Grehan signature etc?

@SB-qi7mv Год назад

I totally got "catfished" with your title. I was in Les Paul mode and thought the "Nash" reference in the title was a Nashville guitar. I was a little pleasantly surprised to see a Strat copy. If it is a Fender I tend to go for a Tele but I do love small shop custom guitars.

"reliced" guitars are the equivalent of garish cheesy gino acid wash Ed hardy jeans with wholes already in them

@mattrogers1946 Год назад

This isn't the same thing. More like a pair of prewashed 501s.

@loganhall7776 Год назад

they pay a fee to FMIC for use of the headstock. MJT does the same thing.

@dzezydzerk Год назад

i have nash tele early one, without decal, and for over 10 years i owe it , this is very reliable guitar. sounds cool. but i think mjt aging is much better. i think if you spend some time on mjt setup you can get also great sounding guitar but almost half of the price less and much better aging.

@jeromestevenfaigin6059 Год назад

I never thought I was narrow minded and I could embrace new the ways of doing stuff. But, I have a problem of justifying guitars that look like crap! I'm missing something about that is wrong. I buy my guitars and take better care than those guitars that look like I'm a pig on taking care of my guitar the majority are steel string guitars and I'm planning to have my own handmade electric guitars and 5-string basses. Keeps me out of trouble. Cheers!

I have an S63 and my neck at the 1st fret is .83 which is what stock Nash comes with. This guitar must be a special order neck. It is a medium C shape.
