Steve Haynie Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Now for the purists there will be arguments over how a Stradivarius should be played since different violinists have different touches. Isaac Stern played with a lot of emotion. The accentuation of many instruments creates a character. For instance, an Epiphone archtop needs to be played loud to get the best tone out of it.

Steve Haynie Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Well, maybe I am thin skinned about "real" Epiphones. Maybe I am distraught over parsley abuse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
