YouTube video Chicago Music Exchange · 2014-10 — Chicago Music Exchange demos a Nash T-63 in Burgundy Mist Metallic through a clean amp.

Why it matters

Nash built its reputation on lightly aged instruments that look and feel broken in without a vintage price attached. The T-57, T-63 and T-72 track the changes that separated one decade of the T-type from the next, so the line reads as a timeline rather than three finishes of the same guitar. Nash works through dealers rather than selling direct, so the specification and the final price of any one example depend on the shop that ordered it.

Note

Aged Tele replicas by year.

Specifications

  • Scale length: 647.7 mm (25.5 in)
  • Neck shape: Medium C

Before you buy

  • Model number points to the era being replicated, so compare wiring and neck profile rather than finish alone
  • Aging ranges from light to heavy, and heavy relic work cannot be undone
  • Dealer stock varies, so ask for the actual spec sheet of the individual guitar
