Nacho Guitars 60’s Blackguard P90
Black #44193

Art.Nr. NG25BGP90BLK-44193

The Nachocaster with P90 in the neck position is one of our favorites in the whole lineup. This is the first time we offer it with rosewood fretboard – beautifully aged Black finish paired with a 60s neck with a dark rosewood fretboard! This is just amazing! Another masterpiece by our great friend “el maestro de los Blackguards” Nacho Baños. 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 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, unique and artisan-made tributes of the original design with and tone and feel that you can’t get in modern mass production. A big step above other brands models with a lot more actual vintage feel. It takes someone who really knows the old guitars to be able to do this. Medium C neck, lightweight example at 3,31 Kg / 7 Pounds 5 Oz
