2016 Nacho Banos LEFTY Nachocaster (1952 Reissue) Blonde, Brand New, Original Hard, $4,995.00

Nacho Banos: a man who needs no introduction to the world of 1950-1954 Blackguards, the Holy Grails of the Telecaster guitar.
Nacho literally wrote the book on Blackguard Teles - The Blackguard: http://www.theblackguardbook.com/

The Nachocaster is a guitar that Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top is in love with, and Billy knows a few things about vintage guitars! Billy added his own certificate of authenticity to the Nachocasters.

This guitar is simply amazing! If you are a Tele player, this guitar deserves your serious attention. It is everything that the serious Tele players say it is:

Nacho only makes a handful of guitars very year, and to find one that is left handed is a very rare find! I’ve had a bunch of vintage Teles, and I can truly say that I am impressed! The guitar played great and stayed in tune right off the bat; neck felt perfect, great weight under 7 lbs, and the pickups sounded killer! Better grab this one before I decide to keep it!
