Relist: FS Rick Turner Renaissance 6 Fretless [CONSIDERABLY REDUCED]

Sign in to disble this ad
Relisting an older ad with updated and considerably reduced price.

RARE 6-strings lined fretless Rick Turner Renaissance bass. These are built now by order only.

This bass sounds like no other fretless. If you ever played a Renaissance you know that the quality of craftsmanship and sound of these instruments is second to none. I am selling it to gather funds for a new custom order.

Here is a link to a review video by Ed Friedland for the fretted version of this bass: Turner Renaissance 6-String Bass - YouTube

The bass is in almost-mint condition. "Almost", because it has a very tiny nick on the headstock which I hardly could catch with my camera (see pics). This does not affect in any way sound or playability.

I put on it about a month ago brand new set of Thomastic Acousticore strings (cost me $113!! - your gain)

Specs:
  • Koa Top and Back
  • 35" Scale Length
  • 19mm String Spacing at Bridge
  • Mahogany Neck and Bridge
  • Lined Fretless Rosewood Fingerboard
  • Super-light bass (around 7lbs)
  • Semi-Hollow Acoustic Chambered Body
  • Piezo Bridge Pickup with 18V Timberline System
  • Kaces Gig Bag

Requesting: $1,795 SHIPPED ANYWHERE!

PayPal (echeck only) or direct bank deposit. Not interested in any trades. Will ship with the original gig bag and packed extremely well and protected, fully insured and delivered to your door in 2-3 business days.

Please PM me with any questions and thanks for looking.

Hey, do you happen to have any sound samples of this bass? How does it compare to Veillette Paris? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OfIJrlTaMaM
Thanks!
