The Nash E-56 is Nash’s homage to the classic Les Paul Gold Top. Lollar P-90. British Racing Green. It has a mahagony neck with a lovely dark rosewood board. Bound with Block inlays. Bound Mahogany Body with a maple top. Perfect tone, Beautiful frets, very resonant, wonderful action, and has the fat, clear Lollar P-90 at the bridge for the classic Les Paul tone. And nothing plays better than an aged Bill Nash guitar. This is how Leo meant his guitars to play, feel and sound. This one is a new 2023, never displayed Nash E-56. Perfect set-up. Great tone.
You have to experience it to believe how comfortable it is to play an expertly aged guitar. And Bill Nash is the expert. Only high end components. All USA made. I have never played a guitar that is set-up as nicely as a Nash when it arrives in the store, and this includes Gibsons, Rickenbackers, and American made Fenders. Beautiful cloth wiring, very disciplined, no sloppy soldering, precise, accurate and sturdy.
Great wood. C-neck, dead-straight.
Nice full sounding, very powerful, very articulated Lollars.
This guitar has great resonance and you forget what great resonance is on an electric when you haven’t heard it in awhile. You will never find a guitar this resonant off the wall at Guitar Center, or through the mail from Musician’s Friend. A combination of the wood that Nash hand-selects, the very thin coat of nitrocellulose lacquer, a properly seated neck pocket, and the appropriate density of the woods used. Combine this with the Lollars and you really have a match made in heaven. Finally a guitar that sounds and plays like the originals did in the late 50′s. This is a guitar that can last you a lifetime, and just get better over the years.
