Congratulations on your new purchase!
I bought a used Rittenberry SD 10 from Dennis Lee about a year ago! They are fantastic guitars imho.

Beginners questions:
what does the fourth floor pedal do?
Is it called the "D" pedal?
Does this affect the knee levers?
Thanks

That's a Ritt! Why would I know? Cause I have a black polished 2008 beauty that Gary created for me. I really wanted that Franklin pedal, but Bobbe talked me out of it for the while. Doubt I'll ever send her clear across the US to get that 4th pedal installed, but of course, I'll always wonder how I might have applied it. Congratulations men! Brandon, when will you change that logo on your handle from Emmons to Rittenberry?

Finis, you do a fine job without any help from anybody. You should bring the Ritt to the next club meeting in Katy and play it for the group! Very Happy jc
