The Model 1 Legacy 21 Featherweight is a remarkably stunning tribute to the genius of Mr. Rick Turner, with only 21 guitars to be produced. This special edition marks the final guitars that Rick took part in personally designing before his passing, ensuring each instrument carries the unparalleled legacy of his craftsmanship. The guitar features a Western Red Cedar core personally cut by Rick, sandwiched between a stunning Quilted Maple top and back, all finished in a natural gloss for a sleek, timeless look. The Tortoise binding and Abalone purfling beautifully highlight the Model 1’s unique body, while the 5-ply Spanish Cedar / Purpleheart neck with a Honduran Rosewood fingerboard offers exceptional traversability up and down the neck. Boasting a full electronics package, the Model 1 Legacy is equipped with a D-TAR Eclipse active preamp, parametric EQ, and piezo pickup, providing a versatile sonic range ideal for any performance. Its Gotoh 510 tuners ensure stable tuning, while the Bezard poxy tortoise pickup surround, battery cover, and truss rod cover add a refined finishing detail. This guitar is not just an instrument; it's a rare piece of history, imbued with the spirit of one of the guitar community’s most accomplished and hardworking luthiers.
