stick options-info ?
wondering around the stick site
can't find much info regarding color/inlay color tuners
for example:
how can i see the front of all railboard colors? all linear inlays colors? how could i know if a stick color w/ inlays color will look right?
tuners colors? what is hipshot closed gear/open gear?
there are only lists of colors and options but not enough pics. to show what those lists mean
any info will help
tnx
Boaz

Re: stick options-info ?
There are more photos in the Hot Shots area on Stick's website (including my own Blue Railboard w/Silver glitter linear inlays). Also some shots of the tuners (open & closed, gold & chrome). I was looking for this too before I ordered my Railboard. There weren't many good shots of the various colors. It would be nice to have a catalog of all wood/alum colors along with the inlay materials.. http://www.stick.com/instruments/hotshots/

Re: stick options-info ?
Tnx but still not helpful enough. Still can’t tell the difference between closed and open tuners.
Also when ordering I suppose you need to have all the options info..

Re: stick options-info ?
I went with the closed tuners just to keep maint lower. The open tuners tend to collect dust & debris.

Re: stick options-info ?
Hi Boaz, With the pictures in this gallery page, all the tuners are "open back" style. http://www.stick.com/instruments/tuners/ This means the gear is exposed. However, in the below picture of the StickBass in Tarara wood, the tuners are "closed back" style. These tuners have a cover over the gear. http://www.stick.com/instruments/sb8/ta ... arhead.jpgMy preference would be closed back.
