READ THIS:
Who wants to complain about the usual thing "this is not a violin" well STFU. Everybody calls it like this and I call it like this too. Anyway, are you coming for the sound or for the name...?
PLEASE COMMENT!!!!
The trick is in the sound knob and the delay effect ;)

  • how do you play music with this mousy sounding technique?

  • @jackthrift This technique is widely used in particular kinds of music such as psychedelic rock. I agree, however, that this is not the best video of it out there, it's very old, but I can't be bothered to make a new one..

  • Can you do this with volume pedal?

  • @DaAzisum yeah you can do that; it's also much easier :)

  • This doesn't sound like a violin at all!

  • this DOES sound like a violin dumbasses! I been playing the violin since I was 5 and guitar since I was 15 and while this is not masterful technique, it does sound like a violin. Again, not amazingly done but better than you punks can prolly do and better than I can do.

  • Thank you man. I will be using this al the time. Sounds awesome! Really like a violin!!

  • ..........and pow guitar volume knob is fried

  • @ShayCarlFan1000 Thanks! not trolling though. I really did play that long. Still have it too but only play guitar. And I never said this guy was great. Just that it does sound like a violin if you have any imagination at all and can get pretend you are not looking at a guitar. Hell, play it to a non-guitarist without letting them look and see what they say. They defilly will not say guitar. Dude needs practice though. :)

  • @Coppulor1 good trolling bro

  • To anyone who thinks this is useless, listen to the master of it! Blues Deluxe - Joe Bonamassa, live at Rockpalast

  • Have you ever heard a violin? I quess no -_-
