I had these up for sale a year ago and decided to hold on to them in the end. Unfortunately, they haven't gotten much play time because of some on going hand issues. That, combined with some bills has them back on the block.
Rare Rick Turner Renaissance 6 string basses. One fretted, one fretless. Sequential serial numbers. Ships in a Renaissance gig bag. $2400 ea. or $4200 for the pair. Includes shipping in the continental US.
The basses are Koa. 35" scale. Neck is 2 1/8" wide at the nut. String spacing is .750
If you've played a Ren, you know that they are warm wonderful sounding basses. If not, you're missing out.

| | | | Gotta say, those are some beautiful basses. If only they didn't have so many superfluous strings. |

It was quite difficult to resist pulling up this thread and pull the trigger when I got home. Whoever gets either of these is going to be very lucky indeed. |
