Nacho Guitars Stratocaster '56 - 6700

“Nacho Baños of Valencia, Spain, noted specialist in all things Fender from the inception through the first five years and beyond, has created a fine line of custom-built Spanish electric guitars that are nearly beyond description. Nacho’s attention to detail captures exactly the essence of what Leo Fender started over 70 years ago. The sound and style of a Nacho guitar is sheer genius.”—Billy F. Gibbons

Nacho Baños builds his own unique collection of vintage Stratocaster reproductions, and every guitar he builds is unique in terms of the remarkably realistic aging he creates. To see a Nacho Stratocaster is to behold the most artfully inspired vintage reproduction ever created. There is simply none finer in existence, and we doubt there will ever be.
