Description: This listing is for a 2021 Washburn Nuno Bettencourt Nele Standard. I have always loved the Nuno N4 Washburns. They are a great playing guitar that just beg to be shredder on. Because of that, I have been eager to try out his relatively new line of tele style guitars and this is the first time I have had my hands on one. They do not disappoint. A USA Washburn built in the Custom Shop, this is a high-grade guitar all the way around. Condition is excellent, it shows no wear and has no issues. The pickups have been replaced but the originals ARE also included: -Bill Lawrence Black Label T in the neck -Bill Lawrence Tele Twin Blade in the bridge. -Replaced the Freeway Ultra 6-way switching with a more classic 3-position switch. The original 6-way switch is included as well. Not much more to say about this beauty. Its got killer looks as well as great tone and playbility and its in awesome condition. Comes as pictured with original Washburn hard case.

This bold instrument is inspired by some great vintage instruments, but this is far from traditional. It delivers more tonal options and a feel that is far faster and enticing than its forerunner. The Nele Standard features a natural-grain swamp ash body, equipped with a Seymour Duncan® Vintage Stack® in the neck position, a Bill Lawrence L-250 bridge pickups, and an innovative 6-way “Freeway Ultra” switch. The new tone switch gives players access to the three common settings and then three additional hot-rod options. Each Nele is custom-built in the Washburn USA custom shop.DESIGNED AND PLAYED BY NUNO BETTENCOURT "I’m excited about the Nele and it’s multitude of tones. Not only the traditional approach to the single coils, but the 6 position switch opens up new creative possibilities. Already used it in the new extreme album. " - Nuno SEYMOUR DUNCAN® VINTAGE STACK® AND BILL LAWRENCE L-250 PICKUPS The Seymour Duncan® Vintage Stack® is designed to deliver a classic, warm, punchy tone without the traditional single coil hum and is built by hand in Santa Barbara, California. The Bill Lawrence L-250 brings you single coil dynamics and sound with humbucker warmth and cleanliness. 6-WAY "FREE-WAY ULTRA" SWITCH Position 1 - Neck Pickup Position 2 - Bridge + Neck Pickups Position 3 - Bridge Pickup Position 4 - Both Pickups in Series + In Phase Position 5 - Both Pickups in Series + Out of Phase Position 6 - Both Pickups in Parallel + Out of Phase SWAMP ASH BODY Swamp Ash is both light and resonant, and offers firm lows, pleasant highs, slightly scooped mids and excellent sustain.
