Hi,

iam currently selling my Ritter Zephyr Bass

http://www.ritter-royals.com/detail-picture-sites/detail-pictures-zephyr.htm

http://www.ritter-basses.com/ritter-basses---bilder/ritter-basses-history/0546/popup.php

This is a beautiful sounding Bass. The only reason i sell this one is that i can't use it in my Music. It is made for 6+ Strings, so the Bass is nearly unused

It is made out of one piece of wood, is extremely light, it has no magnetic pickups, only piezos.

This bass is a part from the Ritter Royals, those are the very exclusive Basses from the Luthier Jens Ritter. There wont be a 2nd of this bass

Price is 6000€ or 7393$ + shipping

Iam from germany and you're always welcome to ask some questions about that ;)

cheers

Daniel

God knows i knew this one already, and it's been my DREAM fretless bass... But i'd rather buy an Imperial out of 6000€

Good luck for the sale and back to the top, this is HUGE, and unique...

It is always a question of taste, i don't like the fodera imperial that much :) so to me this is the best fretless i've ever played. But in this price category i've never really played crap, it is only a question of taste.

Here some actual pics of the bass. But the quality is not as good as on the website

But to proof that it's real :)

What a stunning bass! Is there any spring on the lower horn, or is it solid?

The lower horn is solid. The Metal is not that thick, so it is a litte flexible, but only with force :) So the concept is beeing solid and i guess Jens Ritter did that to save weight, thisbass is very very lightweight. By the way, it has no volume knob, you plug it in and there it is ;) But on the back you have a 3band EQ and a Tone. Those 4 little screws on the back

Yesterday i asked about shipping and it is more epensive then i thought. So shipping this bass with insurance (6000Euro) costs 360€. That means now that i change it a bit. The bass now costs 6000 Euro + 180 shipping. I pay the other 180 for shipping, 'cause i think the price for that is too high. Oh, and the bass comes with a hard case, i can put some pics online with the bass in the case, if somebody needs it ;)

cheers

I have a left testicle that I'm not currently using that I'd be happy to toss in for a deal. In fact, I'll go for both...... WHAT A BASS!

I do also own a second Ritter, which is custom made ( so i use this one a lot). The Zephyr has such a great sound and i really wasn't sure to sell it, but i can't use it, and it is waste of grandness to have an insturment like that here, without playing it :)

I't be happy if someone would buy and play it :)
