Mr. Foxen Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 Is it for Harry Shearer? Would sort of make sense. Quote
BigRedX Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 According to the Ritter web site the owner is Sebastian Leske. Quote
cameltoe Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 Loving all the obscure characters! Can even see the guy who sold the RV to Homer in an early episode. "Mr Simpson have you ever known a siren to be good news?" Quote
Tait Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 It's a bit of a shame all the major characters are on the back though. I mean, its clearly a bass made to be looked at, so if it's hanging on the wall or sat on a guitar stand, or even strapped around your neck when you're playing it, no one can see the back! Quote

How much ?[/quote] Well, there's a more conventional 5-string Roya currently for sale on the Ritter site for €5570, so I'd guess it would be that plus whatever the additional cost was to licence and produce the graphics.

waynepunkdude Posted April 1, 2011 Posted April 1, 2011 I took the plunge :S Jens is a great guy to deal with. Quote

Clearly punk pays better than I thought. Tell us more (about the bass, not the punk). Quote
Truckstop Posted April 1, 2011 Posted April 1, 2011 Ren and Stimpy version please, Mr. Ritter! Speaking of which; Doesn't Jens Ritter sound like a Bond baddie name? Truckstop Quote

One of my favourite "bit-part" characters. Quote
Bottle Posted April 1, 2011 Posted April 1, 2011 If this had been posted this morning instead of ten days ago, I would have written it off as a rather silly (and expensive) April Fools' prank.....but it's real? Oh, boy! Well, having oodles of money doesn't always equate to having taste I guess Just MHO Ian Quote

Vibrating G String Posted April 2, 2011 Posted April 2, 2011 Did you see Jens put his face in cartoon above the control plate? Quote

bigsmokebass Posted April 5, 2011 Posted April 5, 2011 not a great simpsons fan but thats awesome work B-) ritter always tend to make odd 'sci-fi' basses but i bet they play and feel like a dream Quote
risingson Posted April 5, 2011 Posted April 5, 2011 Absolutely incredible paint job! I do not like Ritters but that's really something else. Quote
