Absolutely stunning. How does it play? Was it difficult to set up all the electronics? You've done an amazing and inspiring job.

Spectacular. That is simply stunning. As a lousy violinist myself, I can tell you that you don't need to be good to enjoy it. You just need an empty house :)

That's quite the unique violin. Excellent job on the shaping and finishing… it looks like a great instrument.

Fantastic violin. If you're into electric violin music, you should check out Caryn Lin. You can see and hear her here.

Amazing job! Did you come up with the design on your own?

After you learn to play, you may find tweeks here and there that would be better for playability. Should be interesting.

Well done my friend. I'm interested in the electrics as well. Can it be used with headphones? The loved ones of beginning fiddlers think headphones are a pretty good idea.

Bruce Molsky..incredible player AND he sings!

Nice job. The only thing I'm concerned about is the walnut fingerboard. I'm not sure it's a hard enough wood for serious use. But then again, it is an electric violin so it wouldn't get the same kind of use. So WELL DONE. As a 20 year player, I would love to have this one.

If the fb wears, just keep re- dressing it until it's time to replace it. Ever electric guitar fbs wear out.
