Yow! That is eye-poppin'!

The eyes are not the only poppin' parts as far as I can see it!

Jens is creative in a similar way to the artists at Alembic. That does not invalidate Alembic or Ritter, its great to have more choices and variety. My Ritter 5 string bass is a beautiful Asian Ebony, with an awesome flame maple neck and back, with Katalox strips in the neck. Each Ritter is unique, just like Alembic!

How do they sound/play?

Mine sounds bright and snappy, which should be no surprise since it is all birds-eye maple. Too bad I don't slap-and-pop, because my Ritter would probably excel at that style. It plays great, each session is a very rewarding experience. It's got 5 knobs, and I still don't know what one of them does (other than change the tone).
