2023 Nacho # 1118 T-Style just in on consignment!
We've had a few of Nacho's guitars come through the shop over the years, and there's no question that he's crafted some of the finest vintage-inspired electrics on the planet. This one does not disappoint - paging all Keef fans!
With clear inspiration from the early 'Blackguard' Era Telecasters, #1118 harnesses the popular decades-old modification of having a humbucker installed in the neck position and making it feel like it's been in the guitar since the late 1950s.
The perfectly aged Maple neck sports a nice chunky V profile with medium vintage fretwire a medium taper that is super comfortable regardless of position on the neck. The two-piece lightweight Ash body follows suit with well matched aging to the Butterscotch Blonde finish, as does the hardware and pickguard. From a distance, you'd swear this was a beat old Tele!
Weighing in just a hair shy of 7lbs, it's very comfortable and balanced. The flatpole bridge pickup and PAF spec humbucker are nicely matched as well, complementing each other with punchy fundamental power, fullness, and clarity.
If a Nacho has been at the top of your GAS list, we can't recommend this one enough. It's a marvelous instrument!
