About This Listing
The iconic Platinum Roya Concept by Jens Ritter. Carved from a single
piece of mahogany, the unique purple kingwood fretboard (the only one
this size in existence) is the only other piece of wood on this fabulous
instrument.
The body, neck and headstock are plated with genuine platinum leaf and then a clear coat has been applied on top for protection.
The tuners are on the back behind the bridge, and there is only a single
small switch, which can turn on an active boost circuit. It otherwise
runs passive through the piezo system in the bridge.
It sounds more than amazing and like nothing else you could ever hold in your hands.
I'm the first owner and have taken very good care of it, only played it carefully in my home. It has just
come back recently from a full adjustment and check-up at Jens' workshop
in Deidesheim, Germany.
Important note: There was originally a genuine 0.5 carat diamond set in
platinum as the 12th fret marker, but I had it swapped with a zirconia
stone before buying it from Jens, as the diamond itself was EUR 5,500. Jens can always set the diamond back in if you buy it from him, of course.
Comes with the original black "vintage style" flightcase, truss rod wrench, and an extra set of blue strings.
For more information and pictures, see the Ritter website:
I can take more pictures on request from serious buyers.
Will ship worldwide on buyer's cost and risk, but contact me for a
shipping quote before buying, the values I have set could be higher than to where you actually live. I will
only ship it fully insured at actual value.
I will can wrap it in as much protection as is needed to keep it safe
during transport. The strings will be loosened before wrapping.
