I for one greatly appreciate your time in these videos. I’ve been playing at classical guitar for 37 years now. I don’t think I’ll ever be a great violinist but it’s sure fun trying.

[@davidmanhart2980]

Thanks so much! Very nicely done!

[@TheFiddleChannel]

Thanks David!

The is a really brilliant video! The different licks are very clearly explained, ( I'd never have managed to work them all out alone), and I have had such fun with the false harmonics...after years of trying not to scare the cat, it's totally liberating to let rip!🐈
Thanks for sharing such a rich wealth of knowledge, showing how wonderful and versatile this instrument is!🎻🎶
Thanks Chris!👍

This was excellent!

[@jimtroester71]

I'm a guitarist and found your video to be informative, Some of the licks are not very appropriate for guitar but others while not "typical" guitar licks, are quite accessible. I look forward to incorporating them into my guitar solos. Thanks!

[@andrewmurphy4665]

What key is this song best played in? It feels like a blues scale to me, but I can't tell which one.

[@TheFiddleChannel]

I am playing it in A minor, which I feel is a comfortable key on the violin. I am improvising using the A minor blues scale.

[@mikewiley1652]

Hey is anyone else been Hey is anyone else been experiencing the Picture in the video is bouncing around

[@51394547]

As a professional violinist, I thought the intro to this video was a pair of cats fighting outside my kitchen door.

[@TheFiddleChannel]

Thanks for the complement! As a professional violinist, I'm sure you'd have no difficulty in improvising a blues violin solo over this song, whilst feeding. the cats at the same time!😂

And here I was thinking those old hillbilly tunes were cool..........................
