2023 Nacho Guitars Nacho Blackguard Emma (1952 reissue) Aged Butterscotch Blonde
No sales tax for customers outside California.
Here we have a 2023 Nacho Blackguard, which Nacho named "Emma", as noted in the accompanying paperwork.
This guitar came from a good friend who not only collects amazing guitars, he gigs them regularly. He has ever guitar he gets refretted with jumbo frets - his gigging preference. That is the only change to this guitar. To some, this sounds horrifying, but he does have an excellent luthier do the work and the guitars come out playing phenomenally. He also retains the original frets.
Like every Nacho Tele I've laid my hands on, this one is superb. It weighs just 7 pounds, 2.3 ounces and feels like home. The relic wear is perfect. The V neck is just what I love on a Tele.
The original Nacho goody bag is included with the original paperwork, reprinted Fender ledger book, and the USB thumb drive with Nacho's studio photos of the guitar.
The case is not original. My friend purchased it used, and it did not come with the original case.
You're going to love this guitar!
