Description
Life has a way of changing your priorities, so I must part with this rare and beautiful Chapman Stick #5393, made a 2 years ago by Emmett Chapman of Stick Enterprises. Lots of love and over $3500 invested in this unique instrument. It was a special order. The material is dark carmelized compresssed bamboo, which is perfect for Sticks since it is very hard, smooth to the touch and lighter than graphite. This particular type of bamboo is not currently used since it proved difficult to machine. But as you can see from the photos, it has a beautiful grain and color. I designed the custom inlays to have an organic natural flow, which I call "line of sight" since they are placed where your fingers naturally fall when playing the instrument. The inlay work was done by master luthier , Saul Koll , of Koll Guitars in Portland, OR. The pickup is a special "hybrid" of the Stickup (classic Stick sound for bass), and the Actv2 for amazing highs. The strings are brand new, matched reciprocal with high bass 4th, light gage - which sound fabulous with the hybrid pickup. The setup is just as perfect as the day it left Stick Enterprises - plays great through the entire range. This Stick also has the GK3 "midi" pickup installed, for which you may wish to get a 13pin Roland cable and GK compatible device (these are not included). Stick stereo instrument cable and strap AND training materials (books and CD/DVD from Greg Howard and Steve Adelson) are included,. Seller can arrange a discount on a new case for the Buyer. Contact Seller for more info .This Stick has never left my home and is in perfect condition..
