Greg uses Bag Ends. I use a pair of SWR "Son of Bertha" cabs. I like the sound of the Bag Ends and if I were buying I'd probably seriously consider them. There are a couple of things to keep in mind though. They make versions of (I believe) all their cabs with and without tweeters. The one... |

For me it feels more natural having the stick more horizontal with the bass strings on the opposite side. I find myself having more fun when I practice and practicing more often. With all due respect ... of course it feels more natural. One of the common misconceptions of the Stick is that it is so... |

Certainly the ability to tune using your ears is a must. I've run across too many guitarists who are lost without an electric tuner. And I myself used to use only a tuning fork to tune my guitars or Stick when at home. Unfortunately a tuning fork is as useless as a dinner fork in a noisy club. |
