    I've heard Michael play his own version of Eddie Van Halen's "Eruption" on the fiddle. He was just messing around, but damn.... he's fast and extremely creative. He doesn't follow any traditional rules, that's for sure.

    • @commontater8630
      @commontater8630 Před rokem +1

      That's true, yet he is also capable of hewing closely to classic fiddle style. Here's a great example I just found:czcams.com/video/NycvImNtbE0/video.html

    Reminds me of that review I saw for the carbon fiber electric guitar with amp, for 200... solid construction, good sound, full size... I bought a parlor guitar for traveling around, it sounds good but the fret board is too small for my fingers. Wood is good, but it's like a pool cue... there are some advantages with technology that you can't deny.

    These fiddles can't be too expensive... I wonder if Michael is just endorsing for now? The fiddle sounds good and all, but Michael is one highly-advanced player who seems like he would be more comfortable with a classic..... dunno

      You used the word fiddle instead of violin, but you think it needs to be expensive to be good... go back to where this music started, and start over. You missed something.
