Anyone here with a Ritter Guitar? I have just ordered a Princess Isabella 'Benson Tribute'. I really like the sound of this one, but that's far above my budget. Mine will be simpler

My nails are short; the attack isn't as bright as it wood be if you have long nails but it still sounds nice. Thanks for the suggestions so far - Kiss from A Rose looks tough for where I'm at.

Very cool. Reminds me a bit of when Taylor built a guitar out of palette wood just to prove that the build quality mattered more than so-called "tone wood". This sort of thing is going to become more important going forward, given environmental concerns. I am reminded a little too of the Switch brand guitars that were made from plastic polymer. THe possibilities there are something. Wheres with organic components you have to accept a certain level of variance, with these you could vary the composition to switch up the body sound, and then guarantee that one will sound the same as the one next to it. The thing will be convincing the luddite guitar player market - I remember being on Harmony Central when the Variax first appeared, and the mockery was vicious. One guy bought one and half of them fell over themselves to be among the first six dozen to post "enjoy your toy". Always thought that was ironic, given ho much more open to the new bassists are. Me, I'd love to have the option of a cool plastic body for my Strat (hell, plastic is what the pups are mounted in already.....). Enviro-friendly plastic, natch....
