molan Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Some of you here may remember the lovely, and very talented, Vic Davies - store manager at BassGear until his untimely passing way too young. Vic’s personal dream Ritter was finished just before we lost him 6 years ago and he has now been commemorated by special, and unique, new instrument: A Cora bass named “The Victor”. It is an absolutely stunning instrument and with a core frosted black theme, white hardware, an amazing ‘dirty Ebony’ fingerboard and a meaty, overwound, humbucker, I just know Vic would be overjoyed with this special tribute ❤️ Full details here: https://ritter-instruments.com/instrument.php?id=2208 19 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molan Posted January 5, 2023 Author Share Posted January 5, 2023 A little reminder of Vic. One of my favourite ever pics of him - taken next to a wall of Ritters at the London Bass Show. I was trying to get a sneaky pic of him in front of those basses and he spotted me - this was a classic Vic response 😂 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is indeed - both it and the green Roya you can see, were mine at the time and the white Cora is still with me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
