Irish Jig (electric violin)

[xFierroKiller2x]

White people are white

Black people are black

Asian people are yellow

And apparently,

Irish people are orange.

[Jake199343]

@xFierroKiller2x well yes have you not seen there hair?

[ImPfeifenrausch]

great stuff, dude i like your way to play... rock on

[kate11061]

always will be my favorite video of yours... should try more jigs like this one

[SuperCathi07]

Beautiful

[libramadhumita]

Hey can you tell me where do i get the banjo solo background music you are playing to?? by the way you're version is different from the one i learnt..can you plz send me the sheet too?

[Pianoloverok]

Wonderful!!!!!!!!

[waterwave211]

It's okay but you should get away from looking at the sheet music and learn some Irish ornamentation instead of playing the song so "straight"......throw in some cuts, rolls, triplets, etc......

[TheCrazychick07]

Fantastic. I love it

[Belladonnaband1]

Thats a talent that you have. Dont let it go to waste. no matter what life brings you, you keep playing that violin.

[Ashden96]

Nice skills, and good sound. I do not like the appearance of Yamaha electric violins, though.

[wawzombies]

Amazing  its just

im litterally speechless

[Maxcimschur92]

you played it rly nicely but just a tip from a fellow violinist play at the frog (close to where you hold) you have more control and can go much faster :D

[mcorneah]

Oh man, I was looking at this violin on Amazon. Doesn't sound half bad. I guess it takes a good player to make it sound good, though.

[MegaNiewiadoma]

do dupy x_x

[thaitom2008]

well played young guy , I prefer acoustic violins because the tone's are natural , I have a Yamaha myself , it gives me a pain in the head ,

[Stormhammer87]

Haha I have the same electric violin. Still trips me out having almost nothing there -_-

[ivanzebos]

How long have you played the violin ?

[lulumimina]

I just love this jig! :D why don't u play it faster? that's funnier!

You play very well!

[RaveniusSFRJ]

[jririshbmxr97]

[VanyCelticMagic]

[Libelya]

[kittypewpew]

That was mind blowing! I Love that kind of tavern-ish music!

[Hmoob54321]

i can tell your irish... hahaha, i never knew there was an electric violin.

[pravnik66]

not bad kid

[blacklab135]

9 people are just jealous that they can't play!

[phephebillz]

I REALLY want an electric, because I've been playing violin for 7 FREAKING YEARS now, but I'm still not allowed to get one :(

[Horsebuggy2]

@phephebillz ive been playing for the same amount and got mine today :) its actually not too expensive, it was soooo much less than my classical violin, and it sounds awesome :) just tell your parents that, they should let you

[jamiecatlowww]

[capra120]

Hey Sam, what is the name of the song?

[nrubdarb]

Well done for playing this at a nice relaxed tempo, got a lotta feeling in there, great stuff.

[grinch5x04]

This is so beautiful. I could listen all day.

[iam4uyaar]

you just made me feel the country jig feel back in! awesome!

[grace9elizabeth4]

AWESOME. However, as a violinist of 11 years, I should tell you that to get a more soulful sound out of your instrument, play nearer to the balance point/frog.

[iloveroi5]

Where did you find the sheet music at??

[TearsOnTheMoonGirl]

Beautiful! :D thumbs up

[laiomarinheiro]

great song!

Can you share the partiture?

[strong200a]

greatly done it is a very beautiful piece so bravo....

[samsterjamster111]

@strong200a Thankyou very much :D Sam

[steinarey]

Very nice. Relaxing too.

[tunno0012866]

Thumbs up on this! Do you prefer electric violin or the real thing?

[pmbazman15]

@EZEEKEEL a violin is something you never want to buy a cheap model of. Itll sound awful and usually comes from a chinese factory other thn being hand crafted. but you can get a prtty decent yamaha 150 i believe for like 600. or you can save up for the amazing skinbow =] I myself prefer skinbows but my opinion

[samsterjamster111]

@pmbazman15 I agree :D But when picking a violin, I wouldn't be too concerned about who made it or where it was made. If it feels good for you then thats the one! Sam :D

[cabkrew]

@pmbazman15 You never want to buy a cheap model of any music instrument really. With more common instruments (electric guitar, electric bass and drums) you can't really buy something that won't work and hold up, they're all built to hold up, they just won't play very well. You cut corners on violins and that family of instruments, you end up with wood that hasn't aged properly, not glued properly and at some points not even jointed properly. Fender will never run a Squier series Violin

[TheDarkesT44]

@pmbazman15 you are so right man. i am a violinist myself and i beg my dad every time we go shoping and see a chinese peice of crap not to by it(he thinks just because its cheap its good). i hve an ok violin right now, a 2005 samuel eastman handcrafted violin made ineast germany, and it my not be very old, but it has a way better sound quality then my friends crapy chinese violin. also never get anything painted. the sound quality is horrible

[zoxification]

authentic irishman!!! xD

[HearMeRWAR]

heyy! nice.

but your wrist is starting to look like a waiters hand (its bending in too far) and your bow kind of plays crooked at some parts. fix that and it'll be PERF[:

[mahashakty]

that is exactly the violin I'm looking for!!

well done =)

[cvilleorkdork]

Hey, I play violin also. I've been playing for about 12 years now, and Im only 16. But you play very well, I bet you could play a lot more complicated stuff though! Show yourself off! (Thats the part of the point lol) Keep playing!

[bubblesfoster]

[generaltodd2]

[vegetablesteak]

real beautiful sound! :) Love irish music. you play very well, go on! :) can I give you a hint? Don't use the elbow to guide the bow, try to make it out of the wrist. (off the cuff?) sorry for my english ^^ let your arm hang completely relaxed, the wrist only guides. :) good luck and have fun

[stephaniedraw45]

The tune is beautiful ^^~. Very nice playing ;)

[macabre2007]

well done - keep your instrumental gifts, learn more repertoire and multiply your own, for learnt while young, they stay with you forever after

[pipurrcat]

wow! this is cool!

[chansherly212]

wow!! lovely sound! somehow, a lot of violins sound flat on videos, but yours soudns great, and did you play the guitar in the background?

[samsterjamster111]

ah no my dad plays guitar :D

[EZEEKEEL]

If you don't mind me asking, how much does an electric one run ya? I am thinking about picking this up but am broke as a joke! Any cheap alternatives orrr?

btw! terrific job

[samsterjamster111]

Electric violins are great and really fun to mess around with but if your stuck for cash then you could just get a pickup for your acoustic violin? Thanks anyways!

[0SiLvEr0111111]

Oh wow ^_^ I seriously was just thinking about quiting violin, but this has sorta insired me to keep going! You are really good keep it up~!
