Like these guys have:

They are on the forum and I would like to know too. I'm sure one of them will be along soon and let us know. This was in the old forum's archive and I was hoping it would pop back up sometime.
Thanks,

I've been playing for a year on a 10-string. From that I decided that I really want a 12-string. The choice between an 8 or a 10 is based on what you want to do with a Stick. I think that an 8-string is more of a bass and is usually strung more like a traditional bass. With the 10 and 12 you get the... |

I just got a pair of new Sony MDR-7506 headphones for my birthday. They are really great! I am hearing that bass thing I'd been hearing you guys talk about. I think this is going to be a music altering experience. I'm hearing some subtleties that I wasn't before. I still don't have a performance rig... |

Oooo, I've been paged! Greg is quite right that impedance is only part of the picture. I am still early in my experiments but it is clear that some form of preamp is needed by the Stick. I have tried going straight into a low-impedance mixer to start. Everyone should hear just how bad this makes a S... |

I guess it's time to have this information on the new forum! :-) Stick Enterprises is run by phone, not the Internet. I don't think this is a bad or good thing, it's just a fact. It is recommended that you just call them for all purchases and for general questions. They are a small, family-oriented ... |

I have A/B tested 1 MOhm vs. 3 MOhm and for me the difference is not subtle. I much prefer 3 and I suspect that 2.2 would be very close to 3 in sound. The difference is not just in the highs, the lows are improved, too. For me the StepABout seems like the ideal Stick starting point. However, I'm sti... |

Agreed! I just put on new ones too. Hadn't changed them since May when Emmett put them on back at SE. I even changed my tuning. It has energized me in ways I didn't expect. If you haven't changed them for a few months you will be amazed at the difference. When I played guitar on gigs regularly I cha... |

This is a wonderful Stick and if I wanted a modern 10-string instead of a 12 it would not be for sale. I certainly vouch for Mike, he is a good friend. This is one of those few opportunities where you get a great Stick at a reasonable price and don't have to wait. Let's keep this one in the family a... |
