  • DESCRIPTION
The Nash T-52 in Butterscotch Blonde is a Vintage Tele model from Nash Guitars.  Bill Nash designed the T-52 to create a guitar that isn't extremely expensive, yet still captures that great look, feel, and playability of a well played and loved 1952 Fender Telecaster

Not only does the T-52 look and feel like a vintage Tele, it also features a number of popular modern appointments, such as Lollar handwound pickups and Gotoh Vintage tuning keys.

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 T-52 is built by hand, so each one is completely unique.  It features a maple fingerboard, an ash body, and Jason Lollar hand-wound pickups.  The bridge is made from vintage parts, and the entire guitar is given a light medium level of wear and tear via a relicing process.
