That's a nice P-bass, I like everything about it, the 3-tone sunburst finish, Rosewood fretboard and vintage-style tuners.

I picked up a Ehru last year - a Chinese Violin -- not as easy as I thought it would be to make a decent sound - in fact - I started to get too many complaints...

Oops sorry, didn't see that.

Your wish is my command.




All three members of Rush are now terminally ill and will die within 48 hours.

Is violin hard to learn? I'm not learning it, nor do I plan to, but the singer of my band is thinking of taking lessons. Thoughts?

If they're used to playing a fretted instrument like the guitar or something, it might take a bit of time to remember where to place the fingers. Fret tape or a little masking tape always helps. Using a bow is quite a change too.

Vegangelica would be better able to answer your question though, as she plays violin

She's actually never played any fretted instruments before, the only instrument she plays is piano :/ So not sure how that'll work out... But thanks for the response!
