2000 Rick Turner Renaissance RB5 5-String Bass

Rick Turner is known for his unique way of building, and of course the famous Lindsey Buckingham ‘Model one’. The Renaissance series delivers a much broader frequency range then traditional basses. This 21 year old five-string model built in 2000 has a 35″ scale length, 21 frets on a rosewood fretboard and light weight. Constructed like true acoustic instruments w/its tight grained Cedar Top & pretty Mahogany back & sides. She has a tortoiseshell bound top too. Having bent sides and a braced tone wood top and back, the Renaissance series truly represents the best way to achieve acoustic tone plugged in. The construction feature that sets Rick Turner instruments apart is the Western Red Cedar center block that prevents feedback and yet provides an acoustically live foundation for the D-TAR Timberline pickup system. This is truly Near Mint & includes its original Black Tolex hard case.
