How to imitate cello and violin on guitar
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 20 мар 2020
- Tutorial of a technique that will revolutionize the way you play the guitar. Before thinking about this technique, I used the bow on the strings. I removed all the strings to play on a single string. Then I thought of using a pen, pencil or stick to bow the guitar, using the hole. It works very nice :)

I've been playing guitar for 14 years and I thought I had nothing "new" to learn until I found this channel
What yamaha guitar type is that,bro? It's so cool!!
Also, for this video I quoted, until 3:25 min is just some public interaction. Music starts in fact at 3:25
Now I can only think about playing mein herzt brennt xD
Whot a great technique ! And I actualy play both cello and guitar.
Mind blowing, but I've to call the FBI, I saw illegal bass playing in this video.
I can’t even get a guitar to sound like a guitar..
Practice everyday and you too can sound like guitar played terribly like myself.
Thats why guitar use G string
😂😅😂😅😂
Neither could Hendrix.
there was a time when Clapton thought he was so terrible on guitar that he almost quit....never quit.
Me before clicking: "I'm not watching unless he's playing Bach's Cello Suite No. 1 in G Major"
0:00 : *Plays Bach's Cello Suite No. 1 in G Major*
Bach's Cello Suite No. 1 in G Major But It's Actually in E Major
Somehow I knew that this would be the piece, too.
Same!! That’s the song I heard him playing before I even clicked on the video
The first thing that came into my mind was Neon Genesis
Øivin Fjeldstad Ngl, it made me annoyed.

They both from Italy so maybe 😂
Right
@Mark Hernandez Guitar is enemy of every useless lame bassist. That's why they become bassists after they fail with guitar.
@Mark Hernandez Yes. Compared to average fingerstyle guitarist.

This Is Fallacious r/wooosh
When your parents wants you to play the violin, but you want to be a guitarist:
underrated!
More like when you want to play the violin but your parents got you a guitar

Should be the other way around
Or the opposite!

People calling thing you play fake (even though it's not fake) are actually complimenting you. They just can't believe that you are able to do something so amazing.
I also always get happy when someone calls me a hacker when I'm gaming. It just means that they mistake my skill for hacks, which is nice ^^
same, i hate people compliment my avatar and My skills on Roblox. I hate people calling me hack or something or calling me a Kid!
Always look at the positive side of life

I can’t wait to see their faces as my stringless violin is repeatedly thrust into the gaping hole on my guitar while I gaze into the judges eyes and perform my Beethoven/Jaws theme mashup. “Ode to jaws”.
Ah the turduckin of musical instruments. You have to put castinets inside your violen first.
Oh fuck that hilarious!
Nice hope it went well and they’re minds were blown
🤣🤣🤣🤣
"gaze into the eyes" vinheteiro vibes
Can‘t decide what I find cooler: Your nifty imitation technique OR your stellar sense of humor. Loving it! Thanks for brightening up my day. Will give this a try soon.
David, you're a really talented musician
epic
Wow u so early
U so fast lol
I've clicked on three different vids in a row and seen your comment in all three
@The USSR's Atomic Bomb
Same!
He is davie504’s alter ego, also italian, dave in the username, except he is a guitarist
That's illegal! Slap like now to call the police!
you mean he's a 6-string bassist
my first impression was "Davie is somehow different- OH GOSH"
Oh em G!!!!
Evil twin
Really cool. Make sure to stick around to the end of the clip because Dave has a very impressive short original composition worth hearing.
That was incredible!! Thank you for this technique, I never would have thought to this, but I am going to try it out. It sounds amazing when you play it!
The Italian-English accent tho : D good to hear you talking sir
I don't speek English, but hear strong accent
just realized davie504 doesn't have italian accent, but MEME accent
haha ur right
It's a Mario accent😂
GemYellow watch his first videos 😂 (I'm italian too lol)
Davidlap: davie504 of guitar
No he isn't. Davidlap isn't such an annoying ass..
@@AnimilesYT I agree, but Davie504 used to be better. Now he's more popular though, good for him I guess...
plot twist: they're brothers
@@menelaos2554 I've never seen two brothers share their first name
@@AnimilesYT that's illegal to say I am calling the police!! Checkmate !!!
I've messed around with this technique before but never to the level of actually playing classical riffs. Nicely done.
Brilliant!!! I watch a lot of 'how-to' RUclips videos but, this is one of the most innovative things I have seen. Thank you.
What instrument are you playing
This guy: *it's complicated*
two instruments at the same time
@@shaquilleoneal117 or probably neither...lol
It'd b very complicated to explain what he is playing...
its guitar used as a violin i guess
@@beefytomatoes7480 exactly but think how wierd does that sounds
Giola
There is a member of the violin family called the arpeggione. It has 6 strings and is tuned EADGBE. Sound familiar? What's more, it also has frets like a guitar. You have recreated the arpeggione in the modern era. Very cool.
I like when he says, "I use the one that costs less" bc I, too, like saving money :)
I've been doing this thing during my quarantine, too. But without a pen. Or a guitar.
😂😂😂😂
Bahahahahaha 😂🤣😂
Get in line,everyone been doing that
xD

You are crazy!!!! I loved! Continue:)
Thank you so much David....you've just showed me how to love my guitar again. You're my new hero
Im spanish, and its very easy to notice that you're italian, and I don't say it with bad intentions :)
I am Italian, I'm offended
I’m a butt plug, I’m a pain in the ass.
Confirmo
I'm Brazilian, yeah you can notice it, the pronunciation of the words sound very Italian, IDK how to explain?
@@danielflores5461 It doesn't go with intention of offending :c
Just when I thought there is no other way to play a guitar... YOU show up with a Bic pen and rosin. LOL, I wish I had seen this technique for guitar when I was still teaching public school music. The kids would have loved it. Can’t wait to show my friend who wants to learn cello.
Man. You deserve everything. This is absolute genius !!!! Love to you !!!!

Stay safe David. Love your ingenuity. Who says the guitar is obsolete. One thing guitarists and creative ppl like you show that if anything we are just scratching the surface of the posibilities.
Been playing guitar 37 years and few new things impress me. This is very cool and I plan to play with this technique. Thank you sir
I love your composition bro👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I subscribed ur channel after watching a few videos not just because u are talented and creative but also because of ur appreciation to listeners (and cuteness)
"I use the one that costs less."
What a king you are.
At 1:11 I was like "Oh my God he lives in Italy!! God please protect him."
Corano does not kill young people.
Yea but you can still transfer it to other people with weaker immune systems without having symptoms yourself
@@lotharluder2743 Yes, it does. You are WAY behind on the news from Italy and the USA. plenty of 20 year olds intubated in Italy, per the latest interviews with Doctors in northern Italy. Also, people as young as 12 years old with NO preexisting conditions, are currently hospitalized in critical condition in New York. Please, LISTEN to the newest advisories. The myths that were circulated at the beggining of the outbreak are now one by one being reconsidered as more and more people become infected. Please heed the warnings.
@@DesignInNature when this is true its of course a real Horrorscene. Here in Schleswig Holstein I don't know a single case of infektion. Also in general it was propagated that fore people with normal healthcondition it runs mellow like a normal Influenca. When you take all Informationen together there is a lot of controdictions. I hate it. There is something strange going on.
@Charlie Vetsworth I hope I gut You right. You mean the Story about young People dying infected by Corona is a ferrytale. Of course I take this inconsideration. One think is shure. When this Show is over. There is a lot to change in life.
Superb backing track and melody beginning at 5:06! Beautifully done.
Thank you for this inspiring video! It was so cool! I have never seen something like this before!
That original is so beautiful
Radiohead’s Airbag would sound great using this technique.
Thomas sucks
@Hideh he say Radiohead suck
Thomas Veysey sucks
Amazing! So creative and so talented. Stay well!
I've had this block of rosin for 20 years... You just showed me I can still use it! This tick is super fun! You deserve the like for this awesome hack. I hope you get your job back after all this is over. Good luck!
Or you can still go and play your long naglected violin.
I call this “Tilting” technique.

This is amazing mate. I love it. I’ve seen people play lap guitar but never pen guitar ♥️👍
amazing, thank you !!
Davidlap, Davie504, Melodicka Bros, Doctor Mix. What's with Italians and being great music RUclipsrs
Italy and music, ancient and strong relationship.
isn't dr mix british??
@@raze7x He might have citizenship there, but he's born Italian and lived there most of his life.
@@St0ckwell nice, I didn't know it! Thanks!
This is one of the greatest weirdest dream come true kind of feeling video. Always wanted to learn the violin but never had the chance. Spent a few years learning the guitar but have always loved the violin. You make my dream come true in the penniest way possible !
I got a guitar as my first instrument, looking forward to being an adult so that I can learn more. Would love to try out violin, saxophone and piano for sure.
“The Coronavirus has stolen my beloved job” I’m not sure why but that line took. me. out.
love your video!!! thanks!!!
I used to use this same technique years ago. The difference is that instead of rosin, I just used sandpaper on the pen and pencil. I also would wrap a rubber band around the top of the pencil/ pen and loop the end around a finger for more control (I wouldn't drop anything in the sound-hole either.)
How'd you do it? You wrapped the pen with sand paper?
Me: Huh, i can't guess where he is from...
David starts talking: Oh, He's Italian then.
Amo siamo troppo noi!
Nicholas E.Passaretti haha
I think he's Indian😂
@@muhammadalham3943 What kind of Indian has an accent like that?
Ma certo! È ITALIANO!!
Wow i love your composition in the end and also great video. Lets make this viral!
I've been searching for a long time to do this!!!!
I believe no one has ever come up with this idea. What a great creativity...
440 NEM I did this as a joke to my sister about 7 years ago. She played viola and I grabbed a pen to imitate her bow and got the sound. Friend broke my acoustic and haven’t tried it since
This is so cool it actually works 👍👍♥️😁
I loved your video😀. Keep it up
Love this Akcent:)
This is something he learned dabbling in self quarantine
I found a way to do this without rosin, basically I used my needle nose pliers on a pen like the one used in this video, I lightly scratched it up, not heavy scratches but enough to give it a grainy but still slightly smooth texture and apply a medium amount of pressure on the strings, this also might have better effect on steel strings (like mine) in comparison to nylon. No obviously it’s not as good as use if rosin on it but it’s a cheaper alternative, that still produces good sound
wow, thanks!
how can you scratch it up? do you need to do it for longer? cause i havent been able to scratch it
course grain sandpaper on the sandpaper works also.
That was great. Thanks for the video and the inspiration you provided :-)
This is amazing, you deserve all the likes!
my cellist dad: *this surpasses everything I've studied in my life*
Definitely gonna try this. Stai al sicuro in Italia ❤️🇮🇹
Dude that is damn awesome! A new subbie here!
This is so cool, subscribed
Awesome!!! My first thought was, "I gotta try this." My second thought was, "Wait...CRAP! My acoustic is an Ovation!" LOL
stay safe dude those amazing guitar skills and that beautiful accent must be protected at all costs
Really nice composition at the end!
Dude, I'm amazed - that is so cool. Thank you for sharing. As soon as I can get my hands on some rosin...it's on!
Subbed & all the best!
Hey guys! Rosin it's an accessory for violin, double bass etc ... I managed to play without 😉 Take your pen and some P220 or P240 grit sandpaper. Sand your pen along its length. just a little bit ! Now place your pen on the E string and rub to heat it. After a moment, you will feel resistance and the sound will appear. Don't worry to push on your pen for heat it.
Let's go ! Take pleasure 😁
ok
Davidlap: strum that guitar!
Davie504:SLAPP
wow! Amazing man!!!
This is really cool man🤚🌞💫
In an alternate universe: *how 2 epicly offend violin and cello players*
i'm personally offended but i saw how poor people were happy with it so i let their joy continue

Lol YUP
David: What is my job?
Me: Guitar.
Awesome. Wonderful. Just wonderful 👏👏👏
Nice! I love this Video!
Your composition sounds kinda like Radiohead on a cello
Yeah, sounds a lot like Creep.
I was just about to say this lol.
I literally listened to Creep right before that video. That was weird
Yes!
No surprises
Honestly I first thought it doesn't sound nice, and that I would never feel like using that. Then i heard the song at the end and it all makes sense!
Your English is wonderful! I love this video!
Fantastic!!!! Very good!
Day 10 of quarantine
Italians: I must use this guitar as a violin.
Lol awesome video though, hope you get 2nd most likes
Me: gets excited to try this
Also me: realizes I only have an electric guitar

life is unfair
I only have an acoustic. I want an electric so bad.
@@euugh8877 fenders electric starter pack is 200 bucks, that's what I got. I'd recommend
Officer Earl i would recommend an ibanez gio. It is like 150-200 and is a good all around guitar.

Well, time to buy another over priced pedal 😭😭
Hallo David, was delighted to watch your video. I grew up in Postwar Austria without a father and never had the money to buy a musical instrument. Then i moved to Australia but spent most of my life working to make a living. The lack of talent stopped mi to try playing music myself but the Love for music is as great as for professional musicians. Now i am retired and experiment with making my own simple handmade instruments. I made a single string slide guitar and use a violin bow. It works quite well and using sound effects it sounds great. Didn,t work in the beginning till someone told me about using ROSIN. Thank You very much! Hans Mosshammer
David, you are great. 💪😁
This is how the Chinese Erhu is played. The bow is between the strings.
Finally that hand movements coming in handy for other things too.
Years of hard practice have brought me to this very moment. It's time to use this skill for something that will bring pleasure to others, not only myself😌
Hahahahaha awesome

So so cool thanks man!
Fantastic David thank you......
Bellissima la musica nel finale, complimenti. Molto più di una semplice dimostrazione.
