 Re: Greg plays "Blue Ridge" on the Railboard Greg,
Always a real pleasure to watch you play. Thank you.

Re: Greg plays "Blue Ridge" on the Railboard Thanks everyone for such kind comments. I always figure that you've probably heard enough of this old music, but I just wanted to put it up there for players who want to learn it so they can see the hands in action.
Look for more from Stick Figures this week. One of the ballads next.
Dave Brosky!!!, your enthusiasm is a driving force for this community, and I really appreciate all the energy you put into clearing your Stick path. Many thanks!

Re: Greg plays "Blue Ridge" on the Railboard Oceans wrote: kinda like pasv-4 tone. Yes, the PASV-4 neck PUP indeed! But wouldn't it be great with a Railboard that offers two PUPs for each side? I love the dual-PUPs-in-phase-full-fat-filter setting of the PASV-4 and almost exclusively play with that sound these days. A Railboard with a 4 PUP PASV-4 would sound fantastic IMO! I like this piece. Well done, Greg!

Re: Greg plays "Blue Ridge" on the Railboard Thanks, Per,
With the mids all the way in, this pickup sounds more like the ACTV-2 to me, but with this little mid-cut, it definitely sounds like the PASV-4.
Extra pickups mean extra cost, so I don't know if Emmett would put two more in the Railboard, though it would sound killer...

Re: Greg plays "Blue Ridge" on the Railboard Coming late to the party as I have, this was my first time hearing the song. It is truly beautiful, and this "new" version being in HD means that YouTube will corrupt the glory of the Stick a bit less than it otherwise would.

Re: Greg plays "Blue Ridge" on the Railboard Luc wrote: One of my absolute favorites from "Stick Figures." That was awesome; well-played and nice to SEE it played (again).
Nice effect with the blackout circle.
A question: with the 1/4" jack on the right side of the R-Block, I definitely see the benefit for players who stand up. When I tried it sitting down, there was an issue with the cable coming into contact with my leg. What do you do about that? Is it as simple as sliding your right foot out further? Hi Luc, I forgot to answer this question, sorry. when I sit down I use a belt that's so loose the belthook is resting on the front of the seat, and the belt just keeps it from sliding off, so the jack is under my leg not next to it.

Somewhat vainly, perhaps, I take it for granted that most people who are into The Stick have probably heard Stick Figures, so I'm happy to introduce you to the music in this way. If you like the tunes (I'll be posting another from that CD later today) please pick it up: http://www.greghoward.com/recordings/It's available from amazon, iTunes, CDBaby and Stick Enterprises, as well.
