The Burpster Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 Is that pushing ERB too far? Is there a limit ? I couldnt reach some of those frets.... Quote
markytbass Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 f***in ek thats not a bass it's a harp. Excuse the profanity. Quote
Bassassin Posted March 16, 2008 Posted March 16, 2008 That's a [i]hell[/i] of a lot of money for a badly made, bodged-together piece of crap like that. Jon. Quote
steve Posted March 16, 2008 Posted March 16, 2008 there doesn't seem to be a great deal of difference in the string widths considering there's 15 strings, unless of course it's tuned in semitones Quote
Sibob Posted March 16, 2008 Posted March 16, 2008 Oh god, don't tell me that youtube guy has gone into production lol Si Quote
allighatt0r Posted March 16, 2008 Posted March 16, 2008 Thats not just crap, that's AmeriCrap! There's a big difference between JapCrap and AmeriCrap, and that's JapCrap is actually good. Isn't this made by that idiot that had a big battle of hateful comments on youtube? I like how he calls it "Professional", I don't know what professional would ever use that. Quote
SJA Posted March 16, 2008 Posted March 16, 2008 (edited) check out this review of the 10 string version- [url="http://reviews.harmony-central.com/reviews/Electric+Bass/product/Tennessee/10+String+Bass/10/1"]http://reviews.harmony-central.com/reviews...tring+Bass/10/1[/url] "I've been a musician for 20 years, worked in music stores, bought top of the line and a lot of cheap Japanese/Chinese/Korean instruments, but this is the biggest turd I've ever laid my hands on." they've gone bigger and worse!

Remember this? [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=12882"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=12882[/url] Plus the spate of shonky-looking Ritter wannabes which popped up a year or so ago. J.

allighatt0r Posted March 16, 2008 Posted March 16, 2008 I think they should be looked at more as expensive conversation pieces to put in a large glass box in the corner of your not so run-of-the-mill independent rock gallery. [b]Look but don't touch![/b] [i]Please don't breath on the glass![/i] [u]Do [i]not[/i] touch the exhibits![/u] Further down the gallery, is Jimi Hendrix's left handed plectrum, and Rick Allen's left arm.

BigRedX Posted March 16, 2008 Posted March 16, 2008 The people responsible for the Ritter 'copies' have also started making [url="http://www.atlansia.jp/"]Atlansia[/url] inspired basses as well. Quote
