Post E-mail addresses for Stick?
Hi everyone

Not currently a Stick owner but considering it.

I've just tried to send some questions to the lovely people at Stick using the e-mail links at Stick.Com. Result for all of them has been to have the message bounced back, even the webmaster address !! Seems I'm spam :D

If anyone can help, I know that Emmett pokes his head through the door here, it would be much appreciated.

Best wishes

Nick

The best advice I could give would be to call them directly. I tried contacting them through email back in '07 when I placed my order but never got a response by email.

Quite frankly its' refreshing to see a company still communicate so directly with their customers; a feeling that somewhat completes the whole experience that is placing that first order followed by the waiting an eventual arrival of your instrument.

Best of luck.

Steve

Thanks Steve

Unfortunately it's a bit costly to call from the UK.

I appreciate the person to person touch as much as you but e-mail is a good first contact IMO, especially across countries.

If an e-mail address is offered by a company I think a minimum requirement is that it works and that there is at least some response. Otherwise there seems no point in providing it. I'm hoping that it's maybe a server glitch or some such, however it doesn't bode well that you didn't get a reply via that medium.

I'm hopeful that one of the Chapman gang will be able to tell me. :)

I have to agree with Steve. I just ordered some strings and a few other bits and I had a lovely conversation with Yuta. Followed it up with an email.

Can you imagine any other company where you could have such direct contact?

I live in the UK and I still say if you need to contact Stick SE - ring.

Expensive as it may be, call them. You will get all of your questions answered, and whoever you speak with will put a smile on your face. They are wonderful people, my blood pressure goes down 20 points after I've had a conversation with them. So call them, because way to soon, the only conversations will be via email. But I will bet that one of the only holdouts, will be the good people at SE.

Hello Nick - Send me your email address at my email address:

seanstirling@gmail.com

I've known Emmett for many years. I can call SE direct for you. Emmett's a bit busy this week. Whoever I get I'll advise them of the glitch. Let me know what you'd like to communicate. I'm sure they will contact you directly.

Surfin' and NotYet, i hear ya and it is indeed laudable as it is to have that personal touch you describe, I still find for initial enquiries that e-mail works well for me. I find it easier to formulate my thoughts in a written form and this way I avoid the put the phone down and then realise I missed a question scenario. Coupled to which if it's offered then people will expect it to work. ;)

Rest assured there ARE other companies who operate with the customer interest at heart. As a bass player of 30 years I've been lucky enough to find a good few still around. All is not lost in this world quite yet !!

Thanks for the responses chaps. :)
