Mandolin Tips for Violinists

I decided to put this video together because of the popularity of my video titled "Mandolin Tips for Guitar Players". (Check that one out also!) It occurred to me that there are probably many violin players out there in the world that have never played mandolin but would be interested in getting some tips to point them in the right direction... so this video is for you!

A really good way that Violinists could get started w/ Mandolin would be to play the music from the Suzuki Violin School method series on Mandolin as it's all the same tuning but it's easier to play in tune w/ the frets & easier to make a good sound w/ a Pick.

This is exactly what I’ve been looking for! Thanks for making this

Awesome!

That was awesome! Thanks! So much great information in such a short period of time. And, all the lingo, calling notes, positions, etc. perfectly described when talking to another lifelong musician.

9:32 Like pre-fretting?...
No, I am not a violinist (I took guitar lessons for 2 months), but I figured I should watch this video anyway.

Thanks for asking. More like letting the A and E strings ring, then keep picking new notes on the G and D strings and letting the instrument sustain chord sounds the whole time
