| As far as I know (or can hear) none of the players you mentioned use the PASV-4... ACTV-2 for Bob, Stickup for Greg and Jim... For me, my PASV-4 equipped Grand is my "band-Stick": I normally leave it with the front pickup only and the bassiest tone setting. More often than not I will not ... |

| Anyway I've been delighted with it - I find it somehow more intuitive than normal MR (which I tried for a year or so - used standard tuning before that). All the reasons that you mentioned were why I went for this arrangement. I love the symmetry of it - particularly when chording with both hands a... |

| I feel the same way about mirrored 4ths. I feel slightly guilty for not giving other stick tunings any chance, but when I first got the stick, I said 'I have to play this in 4ths' and Rob helped a lot in my quest for the 4ths tuning. Since then, I never looked back too. I think Rob is correct in du... |

| I just feel the need to add to this subject one more thing... In my early days of owning a Stick (1985), before I had a tuner, I tuned the whole instrument too high one day and popped that first string. I wasn't using it much anyway, and wanted to go lower on the melody strings all the time so I mov... |

| Hi Jim and Eric, For a few years I had two Sticks in different tunings, a Grand in MR and a 10-string in Baritone Melody. Having different pitch/inlay relationships on your instruments becomes very confusing, especially if you're playing the same tunes on either instrument. Reading would be all but ... |
