2025 Nachoguitars Blackguard – Blond #1445

Another masterpiece by our great friend “el maestro de los Blackguards” Nacho Baños. We had many Black- and White Guard Originals 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. A big step above the recent Fender Masterbuilt models with a lot more vintage feel. It takes someone who really knows the old guitars to be able to do this. 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!
