Thanks guys! My only issue is I no longer own an NS Stick. At the time it made sense selling it, I needed to clean up some bills and I did, but when i listen to this song I realize how much I miss it. Oh well ...

You guys are great - that all made sense and was very helpful. Thanks much! Fortunately, I have a small guitar amp which might work for the treble side.
