Nash Aged Les Paul Guitar LP-60
To say we were anxiously anticipating the arrival of this guitar would be an understatement: we couldn't wait !
These are REAL Les Pauls. Nash disassembles the guitar and relics each individual part. Like any Nash instrument, the playablilty is outstanding, the tone dead-on, and a relic job to turn heads. This particular ax has a burst finish.
"The pickups are replaced with what many of you may balk at as there are so many opinions about Les Paul pickups and tone out there. As always, I simply build a guitar that I would use and leave it at that. So, in my arsenal of personal guitars, my favorite and most versatile LP setup is using a DiMarzio Bluesbucker in the Neck and a DiMarzio Air Norton in the Bridge.
We re-wire the guitar so the pickups breathe better as well as use the neck pickup's tone control as a coil tap for the Bluesbucker, which gives you an amazing strat-like sound from that pickup. Between 1 and 8 on the tone knob it works as a regular tone control, between 9 and 10 it shuts off the second/dummy coil. This gives you a tap without adding switches of push pull pots.
The Air Norton give you bigger output and rich harmonics without going over the top into the tone spectrum of faceless, modern, high output sound that so many specialized humbuckers are susceptible to. These pickups have a lower string pull and a much higher sensitivity to your dynamics and playing style." - Bill Nash
