Awesome, dear Jonathan, I am listening...

It does take practice! I have been playing for about 35 years and bowing at least half of that. It is rewarding if you stick with it! ;-) To me, it is an extension to the guitar...

Absolutely amazing. I'm a guitar player but I often compose for the cello as well, only thing is I cant play it! I have been watching these videos all evening, have to have one of these. One question, how much bow experience had you had prior to building these?

Thanks Rockr!

Back in the day, I was a Metal head (Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Early Metallica, Accept, Scorps, Sabbath, Yngwie, Schenker, and especially Uli Roth ).

Keep at it !! Remember, beauty is Heavy!
