Fleetwood Mac吉他手的利器Rick Turner Model

昨天我发了个求助贴,想知道他用的是什么琴,结果花了半天时间终于找到:

先看一段采访,是guitar player 2003年4月的一期,采访传奇超级AOR乐队Fleetwood Mac的吉他手Lindsey Buckingham,下面是关于他手中这把琴的来历的采访:

You are the most noted use of the Turner Model I. How did you discover that guitar?

Rick Turner had worked for Alembic for a long time, and the guitars they made were the equivalent of the basses the John [McVie, Fleetwood Mac bassist] still has. There were so much stuff on those instruments-parametric EQ and all this other cleverness. Anyway, Rick would ask me to try these different Alembic guitars, and they were always big and heavy with dense, exotic woods and brass hardware. They felt very sterile to me, and I finally said to him, “Why don’t you make me something that’s a cross between what you do and a Les Paul.”
One day, during the sessions for Tusk, Rick showed up with the Model I. It was more about finding the ideal stage guitar, because as much as the Les Paul was fitting the bill in a fairly good way, it wasn’t giving my picking a fare shake. The Turner sounded slightly ore percussive and articulate-somewhere between a Les Paul and an acoustic guitar-and the tone worked better with my fingerstyle playing. I even used to put a set of .012-.052 flatwounds on it, but now I’m using a .010-.046 roundwound set.

大体翻译过来就是:
最受关注的是,你使用了Turner Model I 吉他,你是怎么发现它的呢?

Rick Turner已经为Alembic工作了很长的时间,他们做的吉他我们贝司手John MacVie仍然有。他们对于均衡还有其他一些技术细节真的做的非常棒。无论如何,Rick会经常让我去试一些Alembic的吉他,他们通常又大又厚重,总是使用奇特稀有的木材和黄铜硬件。这些琴我弹起来都相当不爽。最后我问他:“为什么你们不做一些能结合你们琴和Les Paul琴的特点的东西呢?”

有一天,在录Tusk的时候,Rick来了,带着这把Rick Model I。这真是一把理想的舞台吉他。虽然Les Paul真的很有感觉,但是并没有给我的弹拨很舒服很合适的感觉(他是用手指拨弦)。Turner听起来有一点金属敲击的感觉,声音清晰,就像在Les Paul和一把原声吉他之间的那种感觉,更适合于我的手指拨奏。我过去甚至使用过012-052的弦,但现在我使用010-046的弦。
