$320 Ritter!

I got one of those but in a Ritter Okon shape a few years ago just for gits and shiggles. It was actually a nice bass. I'm surprised that this is the first time you've seen this with all the wheeling and dealing you've done, Quad :D
 
$320?!!! What a ripoff when you get this beautiful Ritter copy for $165! ;)

That is absolutely the ugliest thing I have ever seen.

When that's said, it for sure isn't a lot of money for an exotic looking bass if it plays anything near decently. Of course, reading the description, which consistently talks about "intrusments", I'm not sure that's what you'll be getting :p

Kind of like some of the early Teiscos that say 'Electric Guiter' on the id plate.:p
 
I've got so say-this is probably the most appealling thing I've seen this guy do so far. It doesnt have the overdone inlays and it looks like it could be good.

I had the chance to check out one of his 7 stringers at a local pawn shop but I cant get my HANDS around that thing, let alone my head!!
Just trying to play that neck gave me a whole new appreciation and respect for the players out there who play 6 or 7 stringers and make MUSIC with them.

I was as lost as a dog at a hydrant factory trying to figure out "Smoke on the Water" on it!!!
