Has anyone considered the possibilities of a totally fretless NS? No other changes to the instrument except no frets. Yes, and I would like the half fretless combination better.

I agree with Frank. I have a SOVTEK MiG-60 vacuum tube top. For concerts I mostly use a laptop in-the-box rig with instrument level input through a very good audio interface.

I was able to get around the issue by starting Firefox and go into my User Control Panel to change the password. I then changed it back to my usual password. After that I could log in with Chrome. |

I recently popped a String Seven when setting up new strings. It happened because I'm still new to the Stick and used to guitars that have much harder string tension. |

When playing almost daily two moths seems to be the life span for Stick strings. After that period they sound dull and the wow factor is gone - no fun to play. I'm not very rich so I prolong their life a little more by wiping them off with some strong cleansing alcohol after playing. When I have bee... |
