Gabriel E. Posted December 31, 2003 Share Posted December 31, 2003 Very few of those were made. I've never met anyone who's ever seen one in real life. Ripley History "You never can vouch for your own consciousness." - Norman Mailer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fantasticsound Posted January 1, 2004 Share Posted January 1, 2004 I have! The local Kramer dealer in my hometown had one when they were first available. I don't remember the color (it was either black or off white) but I did get to play it a bit, through two amps. Very cool, indeed! Unfortunately, it didn't have the optional hexaphonic distortion circuit. There's a picture of it that accompanied an interview with EVH In a Guitar World. Cover photo. Eddie had (has?) a pink/white finished Ripley with the distortion. The neat part about the distortion was it processed each string individually. The resulting sound was similar to Brian May's recorded sound on Queen records, where instead of chords played once, they recorded melody and harmony lines on separate tracks, yielding a very sweet, bell like timbre, for chordal movement. I haven't seen one, up close, since. It's easiest to find me on Facebook. Neil Bergman Soundclick fntstcsnd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
