What the **** is that first one? Is that a bass and 6string all in one? Those would be some ****ed up chords
Leather 06-13-2003, 09:28 AM this is the stick, It's a relative new instrument with a lot of qualities, basically you play this by tapping, but you can play as guitar or a bass (slap, finger picking...)...It has 8, 10 or 12 strings. In "groso modo" is a mix between a bass and a guitar...
Are there frets on it or does it just look like there is?
Leather 06-13-2003, 09:35 AM Well, I've seen some models and I haven't seen a fretless...
BTW, visit this page...

Does is sound like a guitar? Or like a mid eastern insrament..like a sitar or something like that?
Leather 06-13-2003, 09:43 AM no, it has an strange sound, but you can configure it with several picks positions, in this page I've seen one couple with a MIDI pick!! It has to be great!!...
you can try to DL some Guillermo Cides (an argentinian stickplayer) song....

Sean Malone play the stick in this album and it sounds wonderful....
Aaron Bizarre 06-13-2003, 09:53 AM I havent yet but cant they get something less hideous to duplicate the sound?
Spaniard. I got this instument ....its actualy like an organ and its sounds like the "Stick" its called my "Dick" and I would recomend you play with that first before spanding all that money on the Stick
Leather 06-13-2003, 09:55 AM Aaron, you only have to imagine a piano, you can make differents melodies at same time...with the stick you can get these via tapping...

Allison 06-13-2003, 10:19 AM Is it really just called a stick?
"you're in a band? what do you play?"
"The Stick."
Aaron Bizarre 06-13-2003, 10:21 AM it does make you sound like you play the "johnson".
