Does anyone know the neck width in inches of a 12string grande stick (graphite) vs. a standard 10 string (graphite). I would say I have short to average sized hands and the width of the neck will play a major part in my purchasing decision. Also a closer string spaceing would be to my benefit. Thanks again for all the help and I have to say the videos of all you guys out there playing stick are fantastic!!! I bow before you. Like Iv'e said before , I don't think I can wait a whole year and a half to get my hands on this instrument.PS.Any suggestions as to what I should study until I finally do get my stick??? Thanks Again.

replied to your other post of the same question. It's all on Stick.com.

As far as any learning materials, any of the books or DVDs available on the SE website are a good start.
