Unusual bass players PRT.2

Good time of the day!

Once I talked on lamas about unusual bass guitars . The article has collected many pluses, so now it's time to continue this story. So, today I will talk about the instruments unusual from the design point of view. Let's start!

Jens Ritter Instruments

This small firm for the production of musical instruments is founded in the mid-90s by Jens Ritter (in honor of the founder and the office is named). His instruments are known for their unusual design and excellent sound. Well, here it is pointless to say something about the appearance of these instruments, we must see:

The Ritter Royals model row deserves special mention, these guitars are made of rare materials, for example, The Flora Aurum, made of rare maple breed, inlaid with gold and diamonds. The price of such a tool can reach $ 100,000. Photos of this tool below

Well, in conclusion, a small video, with my favorite classic played on the Ritter Instruments production tool

Conklin Guitars

Conklin is founded by Bill Conclin and Mike Aperson, since the founding of the guitar of Conclin, not only thanks to innovation in terms of technology (for example 7-and, 8 and 9 string bass guitars), but also due to the spectacular form. How do you tell you a bass with Pacman style design? Or a terrible bass horned? Intriguing, then the photo below is for you!

Fodera

Tools created by Winnie Fodera, or even at least at his factory, this is a guarantee that the player will receive a magnificent tool for the corresponding price :) They played and play like maestro Anthony Jackson (for him, Vinnie made a full-fledged six-string bass in history, but I wrote about this in the previous article), and the famous bass from the bass from the bass Victor Wuten, and the bassist of Alien Ant Farm and many other eminent musicians! The design of the bass from Forera in many causes complaints and rejection, but they are unusual and beautiful!

Well, a small video to demonstrate the capabilities of these tools:

Alexander Luchko

Well, what is the same Russian masters of the guitar and bass industry, do you ask me? And I will answer you, more precisely, I will not even answer, but only I will name the name of one of the most famous bass masters of Moscow and not only Alexander Luchko. The disputes will probably never subside about the design of his tools. There are both ardent supporters and ardent opponents of these tools, but the fact that they are unusual is impossible to deny:

That's All Folks! I hope I have not loaded you with information, and you will like the article :)

PS Well, finally, it should be said that what kind of designers did not, but they will not be able to get around the beauty of the vintage Fender Jazz Bass for a long time, at least for me :)

Thank you for your attention!
