Squidolin Electric Violin Teaches You
A huge learning curve inspired designer Carlos R. Mendez to create the Squidolin – an electric violin that looks straight out of some cyber futurist era. It sounds nice, so long as you know how to play it. Connect the Squidolin to a TV and it’ll tutor you through a series of lessons. Feasible? Certainly but is there a market? Hey, I could see myself buying one. I’ve alway wanted to play fiddle.

well, I would love to try it. But since when a real violin DOES do this:
“It sounds nice, so long as you know how to play it.”

Carl says
lets not forget how it should sound. if this sounds bad does it matter how appealing it looks?
Henrique Staino says
Geez, Carl. You really are a pain in the ass.
Carl says
does style over content hurt you so much.

As a violin player, this looks intriguing. My concern would be the sound, but also the difficulty to play- the article appears to imply that it is easier to play, but I’m not sure…
That, and it looks like it would be a pain to change strings or re-hair the bow (if that’s even hair)… maybe the strings are metal slides?
I’d be very interested to handle one before purchasing or supporting, but it definitely looks awesome.

Thanks for the nice comments

The Squidoiln site is now up! check it out. It’s still under construction, but it answers some questions.

Dude – I would be worried that the bow is too thick… looks like it doesn’t have enough give or flexibility – looks awesome… but the violin is already a hard instrument to learn — trying to learn it on a Klingon Battle violin like that just might make it even that much harder… doesn’t even seem like a full size fiddle.

Hi can I see and hear how it plays and sound, It looks nice but small, and it doesn’t show how it holds the strings at both ends
