Electric 6-string violinist Tracy Silverman performs solo - a medley of excerpts from Led Zeppelin's "Stairway to Heaven," "Kashmir," and "Black Dog." Live from the Belcourt Theater in Nashville, TN. He is playing a six-string, fretted electric violin (also known as a "guit-fiddle") thru a Marshall amp while utilizing an array of guitar effects pedals. At solo shows, he takes advantage of his loop pedal, which allows him to layer multiple parts of a song live.

I hope he never stops choosing to visit schools as a part of his travels. I think it's amazing that he is will to perform for students for free. It is a generous and inspiring act. He came to our class earlier this week. Not only did we get over an hours worth of his time, but a bunch of us received complimentary tickets to his show this coming weekend. I feel elated to think of getting to see him perform live, again. Amazing!

If this came out 20+ years ago, it would have millions of views. Sadly most people who listen to zeppelin nowadays wouldn't search "electric violin"

it is a lovechild, indeed. the frets are only on the low strings and only 6 of them, but they help to get that crunch.

@markthatcher6844 3 жыл бұрын

Hmmm I like the crunch. You can’t get it from a good chop?

Also known in the 17th Century as a Viol - 5 or 6 strings & a fretted finger board, yes way back then! Wonderful, Beautiful sound, good music never fails to enchant. (Caitlin De Ville sometimes plays a 5 string monster that she straps across her chest.)

Although it makes sense, you're completely wrong. Tracy is an amazing classical trained musician (studied classical violin at Juilliard School). He is a former member of the Turtle Island String Quartet, where he used to play regular acoustic violin. Also, this violin he's playing is fretted only in the lower 3 strings (I've played it myself) and up to the 3rd or 4th position. The upper 3 strings (it is a 6 strings instrument) does not have frets.

They have a stick on fret cover for violins (The Fretted Fiddler) now. Just got a set for mine from the guy that designed them in Canada. Also he isn't the first I have seen with a fretted violin. Check out Mark Wood sometime and his Viper 4-7 string violins.
