Ayrton.... I told you all your strat threads were going to lead to a strat purchase or build lol. Long story short, I don't bond with most Strats. I always tend to move them. The only one I stayed with for a long time was a MJT/Warmoth partscaster. I definitely regret selling it. Ash body with a Sunset Orange finish and it aged beautifully over the years. With the run of Strat threads in the beginning of the year, I knew I wanted to get another strat to keep and cherish. Jimi, Moore, and Frusciante are among my fav strat players. So, it was a no brainer to go with a Salmon finish (faded Fiesta Red) and rosewood fretboard.
I didn't want go Fender or build from parts. So, naturally Nash was my first choice. I sold a couple of pieces and gear to make room. Just got it Monday, so it took about 3 months to build once the order was placed at a dealer (Humbucker Music). Still has that fresh nitro smell and is pretty resonant. Its been awhile since I've had an alder guitar, but it has always been the "chicken" of guitar tonewoods for me. Very balanced tone all across. Thinking of putting my favorite gauge (10-48) for a bit more punch with the low E. The best part of this guitar is the playability. It honestly plays like butter. Bends are silky smooth. Probably the best fret job I've seen on a new guitar or brand for that matter. Medium C shape neck feels right at home since I've become familiar with larger profiles. I chose light aging for the entire guitar, but would've liked less wear for the neck. Feels smooth to play however. Haven't popped the hood and peeped under the pickguard, but I don't feel like I need to. The Lollar Dirty Blonde Set sounds great. I see why they come stock for most Nash guitars. Glassy/spanky strat tone with added warmth from the A2 poles. They aren't overly bright. Very dynamic and respond well to pick attack. All in all, the quality and attention given to this Nash guitar was worth every penny.
This was my last guitar purchase for the foreseeable future. Feel pretty good about the 7-8 guitars I have. May place my focus on amps next haha. *I only really want 2 specific amps though lol.
