You want an original? Here it is!
The Rick Turner Vintage Reissue Guitar is meticulously crafted to replicate Lindsey Buckingham’s iconic 1979 Turner Model 1. This reissue distinguishes itself from the modern Model 1 in several key aspects, featuring the original oblong body shape with an extended upper bout, a Zero Fret, a slimmer neck profile, a Brazilian Rosewood fingerboard, and a five layer neck construction. Additionally, it showcases an elegant semi gloss finish, era-appropriate control knobs, Schaller tuners, and the front facing input jack. For a direct comparison, be sure to check out the side-by-side look alongside the modern Model 1. We are absolutely thrilled with this design and have eagerly awaited its release.
