Nash Guitars Model S-68HX Aged Black Lacquer Lollar Pickups NG5790
The Nash S-68HX is a vintage strat model from Nash Guitars. Bill Nash designed the S-68HX to create a custom shop quality guitar with the vibe of a Hendrix model that isn't extremely expensive, yet still captures that great look, feel, and playability of a well played and loved 1968 Fender Stratocaster.
This is a left-handed guitar flipped over for right-handed players. Just like Hendrix flipped his right handed Strats over since he was a lefty. Its the only way to really get that sound.
Not only does the S-68 look and feel like a vintage Stratocaster, it also features a number of popular modern appointments, such as Lollar handwound pickups and Gotoh Vintage tuning keys. The S-68HX also features a reversed headstock.
If anyone knows about building vintage guitars, it's Bill Nash! He has worked with a HUGE number of them for many years and has a great deal of knowledge about how a vintage guitar looks and feels. The aged control knobs, pickguards, dinged and scratched finish, and aged hardware make the guitar look old, but the modern techniques used to make the guitar ensure that it plays like a brand new instrument. Each Nash S-63 is built by hand, so each one is completely unique. It features a rosewood fingerboard, an ash or alder body, and Jason Lollar hand-wound pickups. The bridge is a Gotoh Vintage Tremolo, and the entire guitar is given a level of wear and tear via an aging process.
