Any one in here do violins? I see primarily uke, guitar, and bass building in here. I got myself hooked on "The Devil Went Down to Georgia" and after realizing that the bassline wasn't meant to be played by a bass I started tossin' around the idea of makin an electric fiddle, I mean it cant be THAT much different than anything else we make here, can it? Where would one get parts for an instrument such as this?
