If I tried to write in French it might be tres amusant? but not make much sense!

So I am looking for a 10 string Stick - I am in England.

Thanks for the heads up.

I think I should look for a Stick with an adjustable bridge. I am not so sure about the polycarbonate Sticks. Although they have a unique tone, I think I want to get a wooden Stick.

My French is so bad, but I am glad to have found AFSTG :D

Thanks again.
Andrew.

Hi Mac,

That is exactly it with wood :D
I will look up Robin and see if he knows of anyone selling in England.
Watching videos of the many great stick players I think it would be a long time before I could play in front of other people :oops: :mrgreen:
There is a bass teacher near me who also plays Stick so I will have to see if he will give me some lessons when I get a Stick.

Thanks again.
Andrew.

Hi Andrew.
I haven't got a Stick for sale but I'll keep my eyes and ears open. I'm in the South West of England and at times in Brittany, and I hope to be at the Stick weekend in Trentemoult in May - hope to see you there?

Hi Warwick,
Thank you.
Not sure if I will make it to Trentemoult but my wife would love anything that would persuade me to drive her to France : )
All the best.
Andrew.

you can choose your tuning, your string gauge and the color of tuners you want.

used model :

10 Strings rosewood, classic, medium gauges, ACTV-2, white pearl dots, combo tuners. 2000$ with case and cord.

Ben from France.

Thanks Ben,

I have sent an email to Yuta.
The shipping cost and the tax may put the $2000 just beyond my budget.

Cheers.
Andrew.
