Anyone tried one ?]

They look really cool.

I've fancied a Stick for ages, looking on the Chapman stick website, they have a special offer on at the moment with the new Railboard stick.

It's made of aluminium and looks amazing, but I do like the wooden ones.

The Railboard has been available for a while now & is proving to be pretty popular with the Stick community.
Best bet is to go & have a look at what people are saying about them on the Stickist forum.

Not sure if there are actually any in the UK yet. Haven't been on the forum for a while as I recently sold my Grand Stick.

The same as with the wooden & graphite Sticks - if you want to try one you basically have to make the leap of faith & buy one. It's not like trying a new bass or guitar where you can get a good idea about it fairly quickly.

Thanks for the info :) .

There's no a great deal of difference price wise between a new Stick and a Railboard, I like the wooden ones, but the aluminium ones look very cool.

I contacted them several times & they never bothered to reply :(

They're a really small family set-up (the sticks are made in Emmett's house by him & his kids) & they are usually really busy so sometimes emails get overlooked.
Best bet is to give them a call & speak to Yuta (Emmett's wife), she's great.
