The History of the Heritage Cherry<\/h2>\n

The colour Heritage Cherry has been one of the most used colours by Fender and Gibson brands during the 50s and 60s.<\/p>\n

It has been used in many of the most iconic guitars created in this era. That is why it is one of the most prominent when we want to refer to a retro and vintage style.<\/p>\n

The years in which it was most used were between 1950 and 1960, considered the golden age for lovers of this type of iconic guitar.<\/p>\n

As for its colour, it tries to obtain a tone typical of ripe cherries, and therefore shows darker shades.<\/p>\n

It is a translucent colour, and therefore depending on the wood on which it is applied, the final tone will change slightly, thus contributing to a more distinctive aesthetic that breaks the common moulds and colours.<\/p>\n

Our vintage-inspired colours<\/h2>\n

Nitorlack colours are based on the original Fender and Gibson colours. The creation of these colours is preceded by a great work and exhaustive study by our laboratory and technical department. Thanks to this, we have been able to faithfully recreate the tones of the Fender and Gibson guitars of the 50s and 60s.<\/p>\n

During those years up to the present day, it should be taken into account that the colours of vintage guitars have changed a lot over the years due to the ageing of the nitrocellulose lacquer and modifications in the colours of the brands.<\/p>\n

Therefore, two guitars finished in 1960 with fender colours may be totally different from each other or from a more modern guitar.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
