Rick Turner Renaissance 6 String Custom Natural Wood

Famous luthier and founder of Alembic, Rick Turner, 6 string bass with semi-hollow construction. Built like a fine classical guitar but with a solid mahogany center block to prevent feedback. He makes the finest piezo pick up systems on the market and has super deep bass, wide frequency range with warmth and sweetness. No unpleasant "quack" or high-frequencies.

This is a custom model with a bunch of extras:
-custom 33" scale for extra warmth (still a articulate and huge sounding B-string)
- individual piezo saddles in an ABM bridge, instead of coaxial under saddle pickup in his standard versions.
- "Deuce" model with Seymour Duncan soapbar in custom wood cover located in the "P" position. A D-tar (collaboration between Turner and Seymour Duncan) Eclipse buffered blending preamp with volume, blend, magnetic tone control and piezo tone control
- upgraded woods (5A Birdseye maple board, Pau ferro body inlayed double wood bound body, bound neck, multiple wood laminated headstock
- Brand new $120 Nylon silk core, bronze wrapped Thomastik-Infeld Acousticore strings - purpose designed for this instrument. Non-ferrous, so no magnetic pickup use with these. Extra new set of DR Sunbeams included for more traditional sound.
- New, this bass sells for ~$5000
- Hardshell case included
