Description

The Nash S-63 is a masterful reimagining of a 1963 classic, a guitar that captured the spirit of an era when surf rock ruled the airwaves and solid-body designs became an industry standard. Bill Nash, founder of Nash Guitars, sought to pay tribute to this legendary model by blending vintage aesthetics with modern playability. The S-63’s alder body, combined with its hand-selected maple neck and rosewood fingerboard, harkens back to those golden days, while its aging process ensures it feels broken in and familiar right out of the box. But what truly sets this guitar apart is its meticulous attention to detail—each S-63 is relic'd with intentionality, offering a unique, worn look and feel that’s tailored to the individual player. The result is an instrument that delivers all the punch and resonance of the 1960s while catering to the demands of the modern musician.

Nash Guitars is known for their dedication to quality and craftsmanship, with every guitar built in small batches to ensure consistency. The S-63 reflects this philosophy beautifully, combining vintage-inspired tones with modern reliability and playability. Equipped with Lollar pickups, this model delivers the kind of clarity, chime, and articulation that defined an era, all while being perfectly suited for everything from blues to rock. When you pick up a Nash S-63, you're not just holding a guitar—you're holding a time capsule from 60 years ago.
