2024 Nash S-63 Lake Placid Blue

2024 Nash S-63 – Lake Placid Blue

Vintage soul, modern craftsmanship—this 2024 Nash S-63 in Lake Placid Blue captures the essence of a well-loved '60s S-style guitar with the playability and reliability of a modern boutique build. Crafted in the USA, the S-63 features a lightweight alder body, a maple neck with a rosewood fingerboard, and a beautifully worn nitrocellulose finish that gives it the feel of a decades-old instrument from the first touch. The medium aging is tastefully done—checking, hardware patina, and subtle finish wear that looks authentic and feels broken-in without being overdone. Tonally, the S-63 delivers classic single-coil sparkle and chime, thanks to its hand-wound Lollar pickups. Whether you're after glassy neck tones, punchy bridge bite, or that unmistakable out-of-phase quack in positions 2 and 4, this guitar delivers with vintage character and tonal balance. The C-shaped neck profile, 6105 frets, and compound radius make this a player’s dream—comfortable for both vintage chord work and modern lead playing.

Finished in Lake Placid Blue, this S-63 doesn’t just sound like a classic—it looks the part too, with elegant relicing and a color that shifts subtly in the light.
