Hello from a new Railboarder!
Hi everyone,
Introducing myself as a new Railboard player.
I received my beautiful black Railboard with aqua glow linear inlays and black open tuners last week.
For a very long time I've been eyeing the Chapman Stick and when the Railboard was announced, I thought it was time to jump on board. It took a while to feel ready to jump on another new musical instrument adventure but a few months ago I finally went for it and ordered a new Railboard.
I've been studying the Eigenharp and the LinnStrument for a few years, and have been playing steel string guitar for most of my life.
The Railboard sort of feels like the perfect combination of all these instruments combined, it feels much more welcoming than I thought it would be and I really love the feel and expressive capabilities of the instrument.
I intend to regularly document my progress on my YouTube channel in a dedicated playlist:
Here is a video after the first week of practicing:

Re: Hello from a new Railboarder!
Hi, congratulations on the new railboard. It's a journey filled with amazing discoveries and much reward. Sorry to hear about your preamps. I never had any problem with mine, and I plugg it in to all kinds of devices... maybe the issue is with the preamps themselves? Either way, welcome to the family Cheers Rodrigo Enviado do meu iPad usando o Tapatalk
