Old picture of me with my former one:

Nice pic. Anyway, back to my question: Does anyone here use a stand (preferably ground but I'll listen to hanging options also) for a Raptor 5?

 

[ChrisDev]

I think ground won't be that easy to find for a Raptor.

Did you find my answer at the end of the previous thread?

There's some good and some bad news.

First, the good: you have post nr 1000 in this thread!!

The bad: I'm afraid I have the only stand in the world for a Ritter Raptor. I'll send you my address. I'll take care of the Raptor

I have the GS-1000 and the GS-100 from the Genesis series. The GS-100 is cheaper, but I prefer the GS-1000 with the self-closing yoke.

The GS-1000's yoke is just big enough for my Roya 5-string with standard spacing. (Spare room with the GS-100). My other bass is a Ritter Cora 5-string with vintage spacing.

 

[dave79]

Saw it, do they have the volute? :

This thing is large and oddly shaped, I bought a Hercules but it doesn't work with it, it gets caught up in the opening/closing system.

Anybody else with a Raptor 5 out there??

Guess that answers my question, wonder if LaMarquis J has any input? Also what the heck is a Rapton/Oktor?

 

[Basdyret]

It's this:

An Okon with the lower horn of a Raptor - I couldn't figure out which model name to put in the list But I can see it's classified as an Okon on the homepage now.

 

[dave79]

Wow, thunderthumb has one sick bass

 

[ChrisDev]

I just had a quick chat with Jens and took a screenshot when he showed my new R8
[Invalid or Expired Link Removed]
I should have it here in about 8 weeks

Then I'll send Invalid Link Removed back to Jens to get it refurbished and put up for sale

 

[ChrisDev]

And a better pic

[Basdyret]

Hey, how cool is that...??

Almost makes me want to join Facebook... but then again...

Any pics of it going up on the Ritter website soon? I find it very hard to photograph...!

 

[Basdyret]

Pics are just up, it seems...!

Nobody takes pictures like Jens:

Wow.

 

[mp40smg]

My roya is on the block in the wts wtt section. In case there is interest. Looking for a 6er prefer an F bass.

Anybody want to talk me out of it?

 

[Thunderitter]

New bass day: 0628; stunning

 

[ChrisDev]

Congrats!
