2023 Nachoguitars Blackguard Esq GuitarPoint Specs – Blond #0195

Here it is…the first run of guitars we ordered from our good friend Nacho Baños. Built to our very own specs. We had many Black- and White Guard Telecasters over the last decades and always admired Nacho’s work – he probably is the world most respected expert for those magical 50s Fender guitars, well known for his books “The Blackguard Book” and the recent “The Pinecaster Book”.
With an amazing attention to detail he also creates his own versions, replicas of the original design with and tone and feel that you can’t get in modern mass production. We’re glad to have our own little run of guitars we spec’d together with Nacho – the essence of the Blackguard myth at a way more affordable price but with a lot of the mojo of the originals!
The Esquires are the coolest of any Fender guitars – that might be a common sense. We wanted a lightweight Esquire style guitar that has that beat-up look of one of those magical guitars from the 50s.
