| I talked to Jennifer at SE yesterday and we discussed different colors. I´ve just ordered 2 new instruments and I would like to have one yellow and the other one blue since that is Swedens colors. Have to see if they can fix that. I really do like the idea with different colors on Stick´s. Good fun... |

| BTW ... I use to own more or less the same rig as you YEARS ago! The 18 is great for thump however you may want to consider something a little more full range for your NS. Maybe add a few 10's and a horn to the system or add a small guitar amp for the melody strings when you run stereo. You'll be am... |

| When I play my 10 String Stick people haven't said anything to me but they've looked! And when I walk off stage during breaks and it's on the stand people come up to the stage and just look at it and no doubt think to themselves "what the hell is it?" ;-) My favorite gigging basses are bot... |

| Very cool Bill! I've started using my 10 String Stick at gigs for a few songs. It's REALLY a different animal! I can't wait to get my NS and start using that! Seems to me it's like owning an ULTRA bass ... a does just about everything guitar! Please keep us posted how it's going and what you discove... |

| I have to bring my stick on an airplane flight which either means bringing a hard case for baggage or soft case for carry-on.... Anyone had any experience checking in a grand stick? Does it fit the size for carry on? What a shame ... before the original forum server had a melt down there were sever... |

| I started out with a old carbon Stick (-87 about) with Stickup PU some 20 years ago. Now I have modern 10-string Stick instruments with Villex and EMG PU´s and I´ve noticed how much I miss the Stickup PU. I bought a old Stick, mid 80´s about, very recently and that one sounds so much better than th... |

| Well friends the show was great. Actually Tony's "set" was more like a story telling/question and answer session. He talked about the probable regrouping of king Crimson and the Electric Tension Experiment for some gigs. He didn't have a "band" with him, he played along to music ... |
