NOS Retro

  • The ultimate "traditional" S-style

    The ultimate "traditional" S-style instrument with unmatched tone and playability. Very similar to our Retro Classic in tone, the NOS Retro combines the traditional "S" shape and features with the unmatched construction, tone and playability of a Grosh. The NOS Retro features an authentic "S" body shape, vintage pickup routing and traditional truss rod construction.

  • Ultimate Tone & Vintage Inspiration

    For the player who must have the look and features of a traditional strat-style guitar but demands the ultimate in tone and playability, it doesn't get any better than the NOS Retro. And like every custom Grosh guitar, the NOS features master-grade, tone-tapped woods, ultra-thin nitro-lacquer finish and handcrafted Grosh pickups.

  • Pure Passion • Pure Tone

    It all begins with Don Grosh himself. He selects the materials and works with his team as they craft your NOS Retro. Don does the finish work and the final assembly himself. He puts his master craftsmanship into every instrument built at Grosh Guitars. True Master Built! Contact us today to start your dream guitar build!
