Owen Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 Funky and yet not out there. That is a tricky tightrope to walk and he has done it beautifully. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Jack Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 Meeting Jens last year and getting a chance to talk to him was one of my personal highlights of 2019. Up close and personal, his basses are so sweet that you want to lick them. [Not in these Covid-infested times, natch.] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCH Posted June 29, 2020 Author Share Posted June 29, 2020 He's clearly a one off...combining Art & Instrument Its also the small practical things...e.g.rear jack & straplok mounting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bassmayhem Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 I played one of these at Rudy's in NYC, it was MAGIC. Kind of astral connection between my mind and how it sounded. Without turning the knobs! Fantastic bass! The one who buys it will be happy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juliusmonk Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Ritters are really on another level in terms of playability, alembics and foderas are rolls royces but these are ferraris... the only thing they’re missing imho is the fantastic trussrod adjustment system of ACGs... glwts! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molan Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 My old bass! I think I was the first owner - no idea why I sold it 🤦♂️ Lovely thing with a fabulous woody / earthy tone. Records really well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCH Posted December 5, 2020 Author Share Posted December 5, 2020 Hope you are well.......BTW the Demeter is awesome...thx...I'm using it with a 10" wedge in rehearsals & have a 12" wedge for gigs !!!!! As you know its a unique bass and I'm grateful for your vision in specifying this bass from Ritter. It has served me well, for years delivering any sound needed, so needs to be with a new owner to benefit, thats why I've added offers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGreek Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 (edited) The fact that this is still for sale here suggests to me that there is no Santa!!! Well that, and the fact that he didn't bring Linda Lusardi round when I was in my 20s... Edited January 9, 2021 by TheGreek 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
