Although the Chapman Stick company offers some instruments with various numbers of strings, we’ll here compare instruments with the full twelve strings. We’ll therefore compare a standard Chapman Grand Stick with the simplest Mobius Megatar Touchstyle Guitar, the TrueTapper Eclipse.
You may be pleasantly surprised by the TrueTapper Eclipse, when compared feature by feature with the Chapman Grand Stick.
(In another article here you can compare two identical MP3 recordings of Chapman Stick and Mobius Megatar instruments. Your eyes, your ears, your good sense, and your pocketbook will make it very clear.)

Some months back on Tappistry forum, A Mr. Ashworth asked other members about our least-expensive two-handed tapping instrument, the Eclipse.
He asked, “I’m just wondering if anyone here has played one of these instruments, because I’m wondering what it sounds like.”
A forum member named R.J. Goos from Fargo, North Dakota, replied –
“I had possession of an Eclipse not long ago, and I made recordings to compare it with a Stick instrument that I had. Playing the same song on both of these tapping instruments, using the same settings on all the recording gear. Though it’s played rather quickly, and I made errors, I think you’ll get an idea of each instrument’s sound.”
Thank you very much, Jay Goos!
