dyerseve Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 (edited) **Now only £3100 shipped worldwide** **Sensible offers considered** It's official, life really isnt fair - a month after being lucky enough to buy my dream bass my car has been written off and so my beautiful Ritter will have to live on in my dreams only. I could wax lyrical all day about how amazing this bass is but I dont need to because it's a Ritter and their reputation proceeds them. Suffice it to say they really are worth every penny of their not inconsiderable price tag! What I will say is that this bass sounds and plays better than anything else I have ever owned and I have owned some very nice basses in my time: Warwick Dolphin Pro 1, Warwick Thumb NT, Warwick Streamer Stage 1 and 2, Wal, Yamaha TRBJP, Mike Lull to name a few. The Ritter Roya is ergonomically and tonally perfect. The tone is definitely "hi-fi" with incredible clarity and definition, with the coil selectors, tone control and pickup blend even in passive mode you will likely find any tone you could ever want - bring in the 18v active parametric EQ with sweepable midrange and you have a greater tonal pallette than you will ever likely need. The bass is in very good used condition - there are some very light marks on the back but you have to hold it at the right angle in the right light to see them - there are a couple of deeper marks on the bottom of the body and I have tried to show these in the photos. The gold hardware is lightly tarnished but everything works perfectly as you would expect from an instrument of this calibre. Bass has been recently setup with new strings, frets have been polished, fretboard cleaned and oiled, currently set to have a very low action For full specs please see below copy of the cetificate - I dont have the paper copy sadly. The bass comes with its original hard case. Worldwide shipping available at buyers cost, no trades thanks Here are some videos of some very similarly specced Ritter Roya 5s to give you an idea of just how good they sound: Photos of the actual bass I am selling: Edited November 30, 2019 by dyerseve 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She is a very lovely bass but a car to get to and from work is my priority at the moment sadly... I am assuming that the "Wow" was regarding the bass and not the shipping costs though lol...

TheGreek Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 It took me well over a year to sell my Ritter Cora. I was gutted but it wasn't getting the use it deserved. They are, after all, instruments to be played - not just things of beauty. Despite the fantastic build quality and unique designs it seems there is a limited market for them - don't understand it myself. Hopefully a buyer will be along soon who will appreciate it - GLWTS. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
