I am finally getting to comment here on Stickist Michael! Brilliant my man!. I am so glad to see that you nailed this one as you had pointed out at least 2 bits I was not playing properly. Thanks to you and good on ya!
Which one should we do next?!
Thank you very much, Gene! I tried to stick to the original score exactly. The Alto helps a lot with that.
I also play the piece on the 10-string Stick, with a little trick to make the sound more guitar-like (and easier to play): I dampen on the 2nd or 3rd fret, which gives me a kind of Medium Stick (like I have already answered Bruno (grozoeil)).

Bob Culbertson has a 12-string version of this (I think it's a prototype Emmett made for Bob). I wrote an email to both of them that I was interested in such a "tenor Stick". Unfortunately no answer.
What do we do next?
I have a very long list! I would like to approach something from Rodrigo Serrão (e.g. La Partida, Dança Palaciana, De Sobrepaso), Stefan Grossman & John Renbourn (e.g. Spirit Levels, Bermuda Triangle Exit), Leo Kottke (e.g. Eggtooth), Michael Hedges (The First Cutting, Ritual Dance), Anton Karas (The Harry Lime Theme - The Third Man), and so on and so on ...
