They are not very easy to use, I tried it once but didn't like the feeling. The sound was surprisingly ok though. But if you're not going to play it anyway then why not?..
I also don't like them as much as acoustic violins but YES go get one if you can't play because your neighbours will thank you for practising with headphones on.
Every other street musician now has one of these obnoxious bluetooth boxes playing a beat or backing track and you have to look closely to see if they are actually playing anything at all. mfw
I have told this before on kc (both kraut and kohl) but i went to high school with Lindsey Stirling
Mesquite high school in gilbert, arizona.
I dont remember ever seeing or meeting her but she would have been a senior while i was a freshman and it was a huge school around 2500 students at the time
