I received this TK O'Brien Pickin' Stick this day as an early Christmas gift. I thought I might record a short demo to, but I make no claims to have shown any great skill with it. It is a hybrid of a guitar and mountain dulcimer.
@embalmerboy88 I doesn't have the full utility of a banjo, but the Pickin' Stick is a lot easier to learn. A banjo is full chromatic, while this pickin' stick is diatonic -- it only has the notes of the D major scale. So, if you needed an E-flat, you are out of luck. The pickin' stick has a mandolin like sound to it.

do you like it? I've been in a toss up between banjo and this for a while, I just can't find a single review on it
