| Greetings Powagoat, Nice to see more n00bs here, since I just ordered my first Stick myself (12 str grand, MP, light guage).

| At the STickmen gig here in Stockholm a couple of weeks ago both Tony and Michael used a bow on their sticks. But only for the highest strings on both sides, which are the ones you seem to get at with a bow. I use a cello bow with a Stratocaster and the only string the bow can reach there is the low... |
