Another beautiful Rittenberry!

Was the small rear deck a custom order, or is Gary building them like that now?

Congratulations!!
Always remember you're unique..... Just like everyone else

Wow! I am continuously impressed by Gary's work! IS that a narrow cabinet or SD-010?

Thanks guys. I really like this Baby. It's about two inches narrower than a double neck and weighs 47LBS. in the case. It sounds really nice; now if I can get used to the changes I made on the knees. It's set up like Paul Franklin's. I had an old Session 400 Limited, collecting dust in the bedroom that Murnel upgraded for me. I just got it in also and this Ritt sounds Killer through it! With the amp upgrade and new Ritt I've got less than 3K invested. I'm happy as a Lark!
