Default A Rick Turner model1...

How much will that cost here in belgium? it's almost impossible to buy it here, and man, when I'm a bit skilled I'm sure gonna buy one!

But I wanna talk a bit about how versatile this guitar is, you can go from LB to Santana to whatever... you don't need any gibson. Speaking of gibson: I know a model 1 isn't cheap, but the custom gibsons are even much more expensive! Since I know this, I want my model 1 as quick as possible!

Anyone here has one ?

I know they're about $4000. I played one in a music store in Nashville. I'm in there several times a year, and this was the only time they've ever had one.

Unless you're talking about the vintage/historic Les Paul reissues (ie a '59 sunburst reissue or a '57 Black Beauty or Gold Top reissue), a Model 1 is about DOUBLE what a Les Paul goes for (at least, here in the US)

I was talking about the CUSTOM guitars, so yes that include the guitars you mention Standard Gibsons are not bad, but they are overpriced, if you look at the quality. (www.edromanguitars.com e.g.)

You don't see a model 1 every day, except when you're a fm fan

Not just "LOOK", but "HOLD", & "PLAY"

And, not just in private...publicly, too.
