Hmm..... I see now that the subject may have a less than positive connotation to it....
Well, since I have not been playing with a group for awhile now, and mainly noodling around on a bunch of different instruments, playing violin has again captured my fancy. So, after a 17+ year hiatus from playing violin (omg, when did I get *this* old???) I decided to pick one up again. This time I decided to go with an electric model, although a lower price range one that reviewed pretty well.
It is a Shar Music Plug N Play model. I hope I do not end up with buyer's remorse (Yes, I am thinking that I should have just dove in with one of the NS series, but, I can always add one later). One thing I liked about this one was the machine tuners (and one of the things I like about the NS series). If I am going with electric, I am not going to deal with tuning pegs. :)
Now, if my bow would just arrive so I can dig in to it! That will certainly be a lot better then the pizzicato noodling that I have done today, but I was surprised at how much my fingers remembered.
Then again, it is a good thing I am waiting on the bow, or I might not get enough work done or sleep. :)
That looks pretty badass, and by badass I mean, badass
C'mon delivery guy, where's the bow?!?
Congrats on your NVD! ha ha
Very cool thing 8)
I feel a violin duet/battle with Chucky coming on >:D

I agree :lol:
I think it will be awhile before either of those happen. (and duel, likely *never*) :D
And seriously???? Today my bow arrives, but still waiting on the rosin. *gak*

Sweet deal! That thing is going to scream through an mp-1! Maybe next I should get a pickup for my upright bass and take that into my mb-1. Now for the electric viola and cellists...

That is pure awesomness
Hmm..... I might have to get an electric Cello.
I can see this now:
Chuckie: violin
Zilthy: cello
Peter: bass
