SOLD QUICKLY:
Grand Stick #5947, custom-made for me by Emmet in 2010. I'm the original owner. I haven't played it for years, and it needs a new home where it will get the attention it deserves. It was crafted according to my specifications, featuring some options that are no longer available.

Here are the details:
- Dark Bamboo 12-String (X36)
- Custom FretRails
- Linear fret markers in "Obsidian" Recon Stone
- All-black tuners
- PASV-4 "The Block"
- Matched Reciprocal tuning, light gauge
- Padded soft case

Non-standard extras:
- 27 frets on the melody side (instead of the standard 25)
- Rubber inlay in the bottom piece—never a standard feature, but it allows the instrument to stand on a tiled floor without slipping.

FretRail Design:
The lowest 13 FretRails are rounded for a rod-like feel. From the 14th to the 19th fret, they gradually become sharper. From the 20th fret onward, they are standard FretRails. This design was inspired by a conversation I had with Jim Lampi; we both appreciate the smoothness of rods on the lower end and the precision of FretRails on the higher end.

Included:
- Padded Stick Bag
- Standard Y-cable
- One additional set of strings
- Truss tool

Price: €3500 plus shipping. The instrument is available immediately.

Note: This is a private sale and I will only sell within Europe due to the complexities of shipping and documentation outside the EU. I'd prefer a buyer who can pick it up in Lagos, Portugal, but I can also arrange shipping at the buyer's expense.

Feel free to reach out with any questions; I'll be happy to answer them.

All my Best,
Marc
