Chapman Stick Soundfont?

So Bruce Cockburn has always been one of my big favorites, and also source of the irrational pride one feels in the music their own country puts out. I was especially captivated by the sound of his late 70s-early 80s period where the had Fergus Jemison-Marsh playing Stick in the band. It’s all over what is arguably his biggest album of that period, though I thought it was just very interesting guitar playing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nm2NeUykvEg

I had seen that instrument being used by other Canadian artists, most notably Gowan toured with the same guy I believe, in his early Canadian success years. He still lives in Toronto and is available for hire, though I can’t find that link anymore.

Anyways, I would like to get some sort of approximation of that sound on keys, if I could. I have a bunch of search tabs open with possible leads (looks like Korg released a sample library at some point, but it’s been around for a long time…), but curious if anyone on here has looked into this.

I have loved the stick for ages, for its sort-of Eucleidian guitar sound, as a non-guitarist. :slight_smile:
