==History==
Jens Ritter was born on July 11, 1972 and became interested in woodwork and lutherie at an early age. He grew up near a forest where he would carve bows and arrows for himself and his friends with a pocket knife. His grandfather had been a carpenter, and Jens spent much of his childhood learning about various carpentry techniques and wood treatments. When he was seven years old, Ritter constructed a primitive bass guitar out of an old food can, some wire, and a small piece of wood. Soon after Ritter's father gave him a drill, and with it Jens began drilling holes in pieces of wood and fitting them together. At the age of sixteen, unsatisfied with the basses he'd been exposed to as a player, he decided to modify a bass to his liking and at age nineteen built a bass of his own design. After completing school at an academy of technical arts, he started his own company. More recently, Jens spent time studying Stradivarius violin-making and has also studied engineering and oscillation principles which he employs in his designs. Jens' atelier was built in the 17th century and was once served as a winery. It's located in Deidesheim, Germany just minutes from the Rhine river and not far from where he was born.
