Nashville Players #1

The Nashville Players #1 was developed in response to the needs of the players in the large variety theater shows in Branson and Nashville. With the diverse variety of music that is presented in these shows, the players are constantly having to change guitars to get the sounds they want for the individual songs. The universal problem is that these shows move at such a fast pace, there simply isn’t enough time to make the desired instrument changes. They needed one guitar that would take the place of two. Haywire Custom Guitars answered this problem by creating a hybrid of the two most popular single and double cutaway style solid body guitars into one versatile instrument. No more running around to change guitars during a live performance when you have this guitar. Change from country to rock sounds with a mere flip of a switch!

The solid six-saddle vintage style bridge and matched pickup on this guitar allows the player to get those classic twangy Nashville country tones, while the three pickup design with enhanced switching configuration allows the player to evoke the sounds of Hendrix, Clapton, and everything in between. The “Number One” comes standard with either the active EMG SA Series pickups, of the passive style Lollar Black Face Series.  The passive setups are complimented by the Haywire Treble Bleed Circuit, which allows your high frequencies to shine through, even when you have the need to set your volume at a lower setting. Haywire also includes their exclusive “Seven Sound Pickup Modification” to this guitar, giving you the two additional combinations of the neck and bridge pickup together or all three pickups together.

Another key feature unique to this particular guitar is the ability to accommodate either a 25-1/2″ or a 24-3/4″ (Gibson®) scale neck with no body or neck modifications. The solid six-saddle vintage style bridge creates lots of sustain and allows for precise intonation verses the standard 3-saddle vintage bridge. Sustain is further enhanced by way of its string through body design, and the stainless steel frets on the quality Warmoth neck to ensure ultra long life and silky smooth bends.

You’re going to love having all of the sounds and features of the two most popular single and double cutaway style solid body guitars combined into one amazing instrument. And don’t forget, every Nashville Players #1 is built to each individual customer specifications with unlimited custom wiring and component selections for a totally unique instrument.
