Yes very interesting instrument Per, but i noticed a curiuos tendence
to exibit in this forum instruments that are intended to make play many istruments together by one musician (one man band playing istruments) in this case is fr bass + guitar etc etc. I think is for the tendence that live loopers have to play alone. So i sincerily don't' like to play alone, although sometimes i do, but many times I use Live looping techniques together with other musicians. This give me the occasion to open a little forum on your experiences and your opinions: is live looping only a one man band playing technique? thanks greetings from Florence!

That's the instrument of my dreams (and has been quite a long time even before it was invented)! It has eight strings and the fretboard divided into two sections: four fretless bass strings and four fretted drop-B strings. This collaboration between Steinberg and Chapman Enterprises seems to be the ultimate marriage of tapping, plucking, fretless and regular guitar technique playing. I'm not too bothered that there are only eight strings because the two sides overlap a bit in note span and thanks to that you will be able to play a lot of closely voiced chords that are difficult on a regular guitar. I have built "no cost" fretless and drop-B solutions here from old electric guitars of mine, but having it all-in-one would be so much better. Especially as the stick comes with two separated mic outputs making it possible to treat each side of the fretboard with different effects, loopers etc. Thinking about what can be achieved in ways of musical expression with that multi technique instrument is exciting! I hope I will get a chance one day to start exploring this instrument. http://www.stick.com/news/halffretless_ns.html Greetings from Sweden Per Boysen www.boysen.se www.perboysen.com On Tue, Oct 13, 2009 at 3:29 AM, Raul Bonell <raul.bonell@gmail.com> wrote:some years ago i switched from a grand stick to a 8 strings warr guitar. 12 strings were too much for this lazy brain i have :-) visibility of neck improves too ... although i try to avoid it as much as possible. 2009/10/13 richard sales <richard@glasswing.com>i owned a stick back around 1981.... sold it. Kinda sorry I did. But it was just one more thing I had to learn. I love what Tony Levin does with it. r On Oct 12, 2009, at 4:25 PM, eterogeneo wrote: Thanks Richard, I did it last year: the previous flash based one is still on line (you'll find it in the link page), but it wasn't not easy to update, so I moved to html.

(there, i said it!) start single, go double, with a looper, and all you would need to import are the percussive elements. and, you get a really nice lapsteel to boot!!! time Mon, 10/12/09, Raul Bonell <raul.bonell@gmail.com> wrote: From: Raul Bonell <raul.bonell@gmail.com> Subject: Re: Kelstone To: Loopers-Delight@loopers-delight.com Date: Monday, October 12, 2009, 1:20 PM it looks & sounds like a stick with passive electronics. considering the prices the tapping instruments cost, the kelston is no so expensive. 2009/10/12 richard sales <richard@glasswing.com> it doesn't look dreadfully hard - here's a basic instructional http://www.kelstone.be/library richard sales www.glasswing.comwww.richardsales.com www.hayleysales.com On Oct 12, 2009, at 4:59 AM, Sjaak Overgaauw wrote: Hi Eric, I like the Kelstone as a concept and I'm curious how it sounds and how easy it is to play compared to a guitar or bass.
