    Thanks!
    From my experience the most comfortable 5 strings i owned were this bass and an MTD

    Seemingly pointless exercise bump...

    don't lose hope, you are holding an amazing bass, for some reason it is easier to sell a fodera in 5000 pounds than a ritter in almost half, even though IMO Ritter's build quality and sound are no less and in some cases a lot better....

    I see Jens there's 3 weeks ago, and now It's more 2 years than 18 months ... for me those bass are the best for me, at all point of view, lutherie is perfect, the shape, the finish, all the little details, and the sounds !!! you can't imagine how great are the sounds you can have with those bass. Compare to the quality of this bass, the price is very good.

    Is the nek-pick up a single-coil or a humbucker (slim bucker)? It is not really clear to me from the specs.

    The neck pickup is slim bucker (humbucker) and the bridge is triplebucker

    Before you commit to buying a mic, it is worth seeing if you can borrow any mics to experiment with (even vocal/drum mics that would be typically used for live/PA use rather than recording) - mic positioning is pretty important, and it is possible to get subjectively pleasing results using inexpensive dynamic mics (proximity effect is your potential friend/enemy) if you aren't concerned with the ultimate in hi-fidelity results.

    Worth considering the overall situation of your existing monitoring, your budget and what you want to use the recordings for - I've used an old AKG vocal dynamic mic between the bridge legs, and a Zoom H2N as a room mic and got some really nice IMHO results considering the lack of care taken in their recording.

    The Zoom has really impressed me, and proved to be very useful - so far I've only used it for standalone recording of personal practice and band rehearsals, but it can be used as a USB audio interface and came bundled with cubase le and wavelab le. As yet I haven't invested much effort into exploring all the features of the H2N, I could dig out a mic stand and check out using it for closer micing and how it fares hooked up direct to the PC later and post some sample audio clips when I have some spare time if you are interested.

    if you can post some audio samples that would be great! Thanks!

    That is a thing of beauty. You don't realise how compact Ritters are until you see someone playing one.

    Thanks! it is actually pretty compact bass,probably it depends on who :)

    I had a DPA a few years back that I tried for live work. The sound was incredible, but I had endless feedback problems, so subsequently sold it on. I never actually got round to trying it in the studio.

    There are so many microphones on the market these days. You can pick up a matched pair of Rode NT5's brand new for £129 with free delivery from Andertons (if you're in the UK?). They require phantom power, but for the price are an absolutely steal. Very, very powerful, sensitive microphones, but you'll immediately fall in love with them. Great real sound.
    You could go for a bog-standard SM57, but I'm not a fan of them on double bass. I find 57's have a bit of a muddy sound to them when it comes to recording upright.

    i saw that only one costs 129 pounds, do i need 2? where do you position them?
    and can you recommend an audio interface? (again, for home beginners :) )

    Always a Mic! I never take a line from my Wilson K4 pickup, as much as I love it.

    In my own studio, I'm currently favouring a Blue Kiwi bass bar side of the lower bout, and a couple of stereo Rode NT5's higher up and set further back for more of a room sound, although I'm always experimenting.

    The one thing that absolutely breaks my heart is going into a studio to lay down some bass for someone, and the engineer/producer fails to capture the real sound of my bass. It's not overly difficult to get an amazing, real, woody double bass sound, but it amazes me how many fail.

    Thanks!
    Actually I'm talking more home recording, less proffesional equipment
    So should I get a mic? Which mic can you recommend? Should I use clip on mic like the DPA or other mics?
