Wow, this is fucking beautiful. I wish wish wish I were as talented as some of the people who play on YouTube.

I'm always a sucker for anything on the Stick Figures recording. Thanks for the memories.

Nice... I like this a bit more then "most" of your other stuff becuase it's full of melody, nice chords. Other stuff is more impressive tech wise by far but my ears tend to lean on melody. Marc

Thanks, Marc,

You might like the recent "Requiem for Persephone" I posted if you like this one.

I would like to play the Stick like you, but it´s too expensive! Someday i will have one...Thanks for your music Greg!

[Zander4724]

a touching piece of music. i definitely feel where you're coming from. well done!

[gregplaysthestick]

Thanks everyone so much for all the kind comments.

This is a hybrid EMG melody/Stickup bass pickup. I never really need volume knobs because they're all over my other gear components.

Other info, this is a rosewood laminate ten string 36"-scale Stick with medium gauge Baritone Melody strings.

The version on the Stick Figures CD was recorded on with standard Stickup pickup.

I've listened to this many times on the CD, but it is so good to watch it played as well. It is lovely, filled with love, that is. Thanks.

"It's not a song I usually perform, but this seemed like the perfect time to do so."

5/5

[gibbs75]

what's pick up??? no control volume??? O.o

[stick2truth]

I'm pretty sure it's the Stick-Up, but I think it's a modified version.

[gibbs75]

yes.. i think so.. is the stick up modified with the bass side pick -up original of the stick up and the melody side pick-up of the actv block pick up. But is without control volume :)

[stick2truth]

yeah, I thought maybe just volume and no tone control, but i think your right. I can't see any knobs.

[bloozintro]

Looks like a hybrid EMG on melody and Stickup on bass
