I would like to share the new Rittenberry prestige DTN that Gary just completed for me. It has nine pedals and nine knee levers, fully loaded. Gary was kind enough to build a custom front apron for this guitar and also included his earlier style floor pedal since he knew I like them so much. In all he has built an amazing dream guitar.
Thank you Gary for the amazing work you do.
Jim
I have asked Rick Schmidt to post the photos for me since I am currently working on my phone and cannot upload them |

Hi John, firstly it’s a Prestige - great sound n sustain. Second - my design on the front apron. The pedals are the curved Emmonsesque Style from a few years back. I requested and Gary put them on. Lastly - it has almost all of Paul franklins changes and a few of my other favorites - 6 knees on C6 and 6 pedals. It is almost a loaded as rick Schmidt’s rig! After about a week I can honestly say it is AMAZING!

That is one of the nicest looking front panels I've seen! It's a shame that a lot of really sweet guitars you see have such plain fronts but you nailed it.
