Three-band eq. and passive tone in the back. In great condition. Close to mint. Comes in original Ritter hardcase. Can be shipped world wide.

throwoff Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 When I see a Ritter like this it makes me think of two things. First, don't these things just look incredibly in the natural finish with the incredible wood on show and allowed to shine. Second, if I bought one would I be able to go for such a beauty or would my mad child inside make me end up with a multicoloured insanity machine.. I would hope the first but reckon the second. Lovely bass.
molan Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 Looks lovely, I love my Cora. I really like the single pot on the front design
elbassisto Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 Gorgeous walnut top and always great flamed/tiger mapple : I love Ritter basses (sound, woods, conception....). I had 2 of these and all was perfect. I'm keeping one with a MK3 Wal and I'm really in a bass player dream It won't stay much time here at this price. Good luck for the sale Jens
rumour6 Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 I'll never have the money for one of these but I love them, design, materials everything... good luck; if you ever want to move it on at a staggering loss let me know...

molan Posted February 2, 2013 Posted February 2, 2013 I know it's a bit of a cliche but, if this was a 4 I'd have paid for it already!

jazzyvee Posted February 5, 2013 Posted February 5, 2013 (edited) I have secret desires for a Ritter bass and I hope I get a chance to try one out one day. This one is a serious beauty but without an opportunity to play and hear it I wouldn't be willing to take a chance on it. I hope you find a buyer. Jazzyvee Edited February 5, 2013 by jazzyvee
