378.0. "Chapman Stick info???" by SONATA::LANGE (Livin'in Limbo) Tue Oct 27 1987 09:38

    I'm looking for a Chapman Stick.
    I've tried the want ad, the pheonix, most every music store in central
    Ma. but to no avail...
    Does anyone know where I might be able to find one new,or used?
    I saw 2 last year in the want ad...priced $585.00...but I balked
    at the opportunity.
    Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

    Re: .0, .1
    
    Write to Chapman directly.  He will sell to you by mail for around
    $800 including patch cords and case.  He also has instructional
    materials.
    
    As far as I know, he doesn't distribute through dealers due to low
    demand.
    
    Check GP for the address.

    Staten Island, NY 10310,  (718) 981-3226
    I was there in August and they were carrying Sticks.  Don't 
    remember the price.  They do a lot of mail order business and
    their prices, at least on Martins, Ovations, Guilds, etc are
    very competitive.

378.6Stick of a different flavour....BRUMMY::LAWTONWell, stab a dog and call me Eric..Wed Feb 26 1992 07:498
    If anyone in the UK is interested (or in the US and you are coming over
    anyhow....that'd be a coincidence and a half), there is a music store
    in Birmingham with a second-hand Kinkade stick (looks just like a
    Chapman) and I think the price is around the three hundred pound mark.

    P.S. How the HELL do you play these things?
