My name is Conrad, a farmer living in Ambergen, Germany. My musical background is quite meager but I have played the piano since I was a child. I have been interested in learning to play the stick instrument but it has not happened because of my work on the farm. Now the farm is sold and moving out in april and I can finally dedicate myself to all that I have missed. I am now looking for a stick, a second hand, so I can begin learning to play. But where can I find a good but used stick? I hope I can find one soon. _________________ We do not stop playing because we grow old. We grow old because we stop playing.

These instruments are reconditioned and updated and sold with a one-year warranty. Because this stock changes quickly, please call them during business hours to inquire: http://www.stick.com/contact/ Also, there are instruments posted in the classified section of this forum fairly often.

I am still laughing... Actually, I pretty much ONLY play my 12 str at this point, my poor railboard is collecting dust. I might be a hoarder... _________________ GUITAR RULES https://www.facebook.com/scottsguitarstuffMy FB Page

It was a smart move, as I would have only got 71 cents to the US dollar when it was ready. In the meantime, #404 is getting used on a daily basis. It's plugged into the Steinberg UR44. http://www.steinberg.net/en/products/audio_interfaces/ur_series/models/ur44.html Santa is bringing me a Zoom H4NSP for the road. https://www.zoom.co.jp/products/handy-recorder/h4nsp-handy-recorder I'm having a lot of fun, just noodling around. I don't read music but I'm slowly gravitating towards a higher education. Santa is supposedly bringing me Greg's DVD. http://www.stick.com/instruction/videos/basicfreehands/ I already have Emmett's Free Hands book and Steve's Book/DVD combo. and Bob's DVDs.

Unfortunately I have not been able to respond earlier. There has been Christmas celebrations with family and relatives, but also because it 's time to pack for the move from the farm. I 've decided to buy a used 12-string stick from Stick Enterprise instead. It feels much safer. Now even my wife became interested in learning to play the stick but she has not decided what kind of stick she wants to start with. Can you recommend something? She, like me, has piano background. And my last question is: Is it just me who noticed that there are very few women who play Stick? Sincerely Conrad _________________ We do not stop playing because we grow old.
