Bass of the Week: Angie Taylor’s Custom Ritter Instruments Cora
Jens Ritter has a knack for creating unique instruments, but this one is something different even for him. Bassist and performance artist Angie Taylor got this custom made Ritter Cora with a mystic neon paint job.
The 4-string bass is built with an alder body, maple neck, and ebony fingerboard. Its neck features a black frosted transparent finish to complete the black painted-on canvas effect. Electronics include a pair of Ritter Master Slimbucker pickups matched to a C-3-S active/passive 3-band preamp.
