The Turquoise finish is one of Rickenbacker's most distinctive and refreshing color options, known for its vibrant, blue-green hue that captures attention with its lively and unique appearance. Introduced in the 1950s as "Turquoise Blue", and reintroduced (in a very slightly different shade) in the late 1990s and offered into the early 2000s as "Turquoise", the Turquoise finish became a favorite among musicians and collectors looking for an instrument that stands out with a bold yet elegant look.
The Turquoise finish is characterized by its bright, almost tropical color that shifts between blue and green depending on the light. The high-gloss coating enhances the depth and vibrancy of the color, giving the instrument a striking and modern appearance. This finish beautifully complements the sleek lines and contours of Rickenbacker guitars and basses, making them visually stunning on stage and in collections.
Collectors highly value Turquoise-finished instruments for their rarity and the vibrant, modern aesthetic they bring to any collection. The bright, shimmering hue and glossy finish make these instruments standout pieces, offering a refreshing alternative to more traditional colors.
