Nacho Caster 1953 Butterscotch "Eleanor"

Nachocaster by Nacho Banos he named "Eleanor", made in 2012. Light weight 6lb 10 oz, resonant , medium relic, medium big frets and neck. Included is nonreliced hardshell case and COA. Best recreation of a 1953 Telecaster I have ever seen. Sounds fabulous. He only makes a few a year. The neck plate has no serial number, bridge plate has a serial number 0454 stamped. Google search "nachocaster tonequest" to find the June 2015 Tonequest review which is very informative. You may call me at 407-468-0264 

The guitar weight is 6# 10 oz. The neck is the flatter 9.5” fretboard
radius and the 1.65” 1st fret width as the standard. It has a 0.9” depth. described as a full or medium size neck. Nacho also made sure to flatten the back sides a bit and get the rolled off effect on the fretboard ends so you get a comfortable grip feel on the palm of your hand when you go up and down the neck.

Nacho as per 2012 email said:

1. All my guitars included Eleanor come with a 3 way switch installed. And they all come wired according to this configuration: neck- neck+bridge in series - bridge. Im not a fan of 5 way switches and I don’t think these are vintage Telecaster appropriate. I am an Esquire kind of guy as a matter of fact, one pu one sound, two sounds are more than enough for me ;)... But Paco changed the switch and made the demo. He seems to be very happy with it.
2. Im using pickups from two boutique manufacturers in the USA. They both wind the pickups for me according to early fender specs following the research done for the Blackguard Book back in 2003. I have agreed with these two manufacturers that we will keep this source confidential. I try to keep my other sources (wood etc) confidential as well as a standard policy. For example I cut my own guards with correct phenolic material composition following a real 1952 pickguard shape, but I don’t disclose where Im getting this material either, nor the special lacquer that I use, the NOS tone caps, etc... Hope you understand. I like to present my guitars as a whole in a special integrity manner, not as different cuts and pieces that someone can go out and source anytime. Also please note that I age the pickups after I receive them.
3. Clive Brown did a couple necks for me when I started making these guitars a few years ago. But all 22 Nachocasters made in this last batch I made on my own, working on the lacquer aging for months.
4. Yes there is a letter that accompanies every instrument explaining some details on the particular guitar and the whole philosophy of the product.

Please let me know if I can be of further help.
All best
Nacho Banos on neck profiles: I am taking the flatter 9.5” fretboard radius and the 1.65” 1st fret width as the standard. Then I go for a whole different depth range. From typical largest V 0.95” from 1950 to the medium D or U 0.85” in 1951/52. In 1953/54 we usually get the large round U aka “baseball bat” profile at around 0.9” depth. I have found most everybody wants a full or medium size neck, so I tend to stay away from massive or tiny sizes. I also make sure to flatten the back sides a bit and get the rolled off effect on the fretboard ends so you get a comfortable grip feel on the palm of your hand when you go up and down the neck
