description Nash JM-63 Overview
The Nash JM-63 is an electric guitar model produced by Nash Guitars, a company founded by luthier Bill Nash. It is designed to replicate the specifications and aesthetic of a vintage 1963 Fender Jazzmaster, featuring the characteristic offset waist body and specific pickup configurations. The instrument is distinguished by its relicing process, where the finish and hardware are manually aged to simulate the wear of a decades-old guitar. It is marketed toward players seeking vintage tone and appearance without waiting for natural aging.
help Nash JM-63 FAQ
What is the difference between a Fender Jazzmaster and a Nash JM-63?
The Nash JM-63 is a boutique, aftermarket guitar built to emulate the look and feel of a vintage 1963 Fender Jazzmaster, but built 'Nash-style' with heavy relic-ing. Fender Jazzmasters are mass-produced, while Nash guitars are hand-aged and feature his proprietary pre-aged finishing techniques.
What kind of pickups are installed in a Nash JM-63?
Nash typically equips his JM-63 models with Lollar Jazzmaster pickups. These are highly regarded single-coil pickups that capture the distinct, warm, and clear 'twang' that original vintage Jazzmasters are famous for.
Do Nash JM-63 guitars come with a warranty?
Because Nash Guitars are built by a private boutique luthier and intentionally distressed, they do not come with the same factory warranty as a brand-new Fender. The intentional aging ('relic-ing') means normal cosmetic wear is intentional and not a defect.
