This 8-string stereo multi-mode instrument is a collaboration between Emmett Chapman (creator of The Stick™) and Ned Steinberger (creator of the NS Double Bass, Bass Cello and many other instruments).  Designed for optimized two-handed tapping, and conventional guitar and bass techniques, this instrument incorporates a number of ideas from both The Stick™ (Rails®, tapping frets) and the Steinberger bass (knee rest and headless design), as well as some completely new ideas, like a patented retractable damper, and unique side-saddle bridge and nut height adjustment screws.  This auction includes all items shown in pictures ($3500 if purchased new...And you cannot get the graphite neck new):NS StickRoland GK3Roland DI-20midi cableAnvil CaseI doubt you're looking at this if you don't already know all about her.. 2 important thing to not is that this stick does have players amount of buckle rash (Try as I might thought, I couldn't get a pic that really shows this). Second there are 4 holes (pictured) 3 in the front and 1 in the rear.  This was not modified, this came from Stick industries with the GK3 installed the large hole runs front to rear for mounting the GK and the 2 small holes above the bridge are to mount the pickup. I had this uninstalled when I purchased her in order to obtain even lower action.  No Refunds from our store, so please use your best judgement based on images and ask any questions prior to bidding.
