NS/Stick, questions about its history and development
I was interested in a bit more history about the NS/Stick.
http://www.stick.com/history/timeline/ just lists just a few things about the NS.
1. What frets were first used?
2. Were FretRods ever used?
3, I see on the history page that smaller rails came in use August of 2010 but were the larger rails used prior and if so, when?
4. Were the bodies always 2 pieces of wood? If not, when did that change?
5. On models (around 2002?) there was an extra part cut out in the body around the middle of the pickup facing the bridge. Why was that there? Were other pickups used that had a mounting point there?
