Debido a las habituales consultas e interés de los músicos, hemos decidido hacer reuniones
privadas cada ciertos meses para que aquellos que quieran conocer, ver y tocar un Stick.
.
También podrán escuchar las diferentes opciones de sonidos y algunas canciones tocadas por
stickistas dentro de un ambiente de amigos y a la hora del vermut - que ofrecerá el lugar a los asistentes.
.
Los eventos son gratuitos y dirigido a los músicos que realmente estén interesados. 
Considerando que no existen tiendas de música que tengan Stick (es un instrumento de luthería)
entendemos que es una oportunidad única para tener contacto con este instrumento.

Hace cosa de 16 años acudí a un concierto en un pequeño teatro en la ciudad de Badalona. Con la única referencia
de un artículo en la revista "Guitarra Total" sobre un músico argentino, Guillermo Cides que presentaba un novedoso
instrumento llamado Stick (?). Posteriormente la primera crónica gráfica que publiqué en Gtrsynth.com sobre sus
conciertos remataba el texto con la frase : " No hay peor momento para descubrir un instrumento portentoso que
en manos de un virtuoso. Porque desde ese momento quieres verte implicado. Ayer en Mongat en Manufactoría , taller
escuela luthier dirigida por Manu Garcia, Guillermo presentó, de forma informal didáctica el instrumento. Acompañado
por Jero Castellà - Astralic con un nuevo modelo reciente del fabricante californiano Chapman Stick . Lo más significativo
de la comunidad de stickistas es que parece una gran familia.. Epakta

Hi everyone, so here it is.
Following Bruce's advise I created a GoFundMe campaign to help Roman.?
This way everyone can see how much is there at all times and nothing is hidden. Anyone else wishes
to manage the account with me? I can add people to the team so, any help is welcomed  ?
I urge you all to share this link across any platforms - let's make a little difference in someone's life,
why won't we?
Emmett, generous as ever, is contributing in a very special way also and has given me permission to
transcribe his message so here it is:
"Over my manufacturing career, there have been somewhere around eight stolen Sticks and most of
them showed up soon after the theft, but sometimes years later. First clues usually came from pawn
shops or sales ads or inquiries about strings and accessories by new owners. We'll do our best to help
return Roman's instrument if we hear about it and would keep you informed and all concerned.
We laud the Stick design as a "blank slate" and that applies to all tunings as well. The bridge and nut
hardware is designed for any gauge string at any string position and there's never an extra charge for
custom tunings - flipped, reversed, exchanged sides, intervals, lefties, whatever.
And yes, we could set up a new or used Stick to his 3rds tuning in heavy, medium or light gauges
(medium recommended). We'd give him (or his Samaritans) a good price break, to be worked out
around the time of his order. He might be very happy with a Stick in 3rds with optimum setup and
exact intonation (might play "like butter" in his hands)."

Any doubts feel free to ask, message, email, facebook, whatever. 
I'll do my best to keep this alive as long as it has to.
