Glad you immediately played out with it, Ray. I still get crap from my band mates who want me to break out the bass again, but fuggedabowdit!
Let's see the pics
I have to say the NS and Stick do get a lot of attention. Last night I had several people asking me about the NS ... one guy even knew what it was and knew about the Chapman Stick. (A 1st since I've been playing Stick in the band.)
The guitarist in my band doesn't really like it (Thinks it takes attention away from him, he even told me this ... steels his lime light!
) but the other guys in the band and apparently the crowd love it and that's really what's important! Especially on the few tunes where I two hand tapped. And a lot of fans who see the band all the time commented on it ... how it had a different GOOD sounding tone that really cut through the mix. They could really hear what I was doing without me being too loud. They really liked it! So the NS is here to stay!!
As far as I'm concerned ... between my Stick and NS Stick I'm no longer a bass player ... I'm officially a professional STICK player!!
I'll post photos ASAP. I need to get a new cable to attach my camera to my computer then I'll post.
