After posting to my dear friend Carl Dixon that I would send him some pix of the mechanics of the Rittenberry, I've had a couple of emails requesting me to post them here so others can see them as well. You know what the top side looks like, so.....

| Even though I have one of my own, I never tire at all seeing the undercarriage of another one. They really are just as beautiful underneath as they are on top. Furthermore, the mechanics are not just clean looking, but functional, efficient and solid. The more I play it, the better it gets. |

| Very nice.. I see the knee lever adjustments but no half stop. Does it have a "feel" stop like the Bud Carter steels? |

Yeh Roger, That looks like mine, except it don't have KL flags.
These beauties all made with Gary's pride and 100% perfection.

Looks like a well-designed and well-built guitar.

| Bo, the feel stop is set up like the Zum and probably others, where the tension on the 9th string provides the "feel stop". It's a very positive feel. |

I have a bit of mechanical and machining background and I am extremely impressed with this guitar. It looks that a lot of thought and dedication to detail was taken seriously.
I'd loved to try one of these |
