Buckethead - Soothsayer - Bowbreaker (Electric Violin Cover)

  • For those wondering what instrument I am playing, I am playing a 6-stringed electric violin for the entirety of the video. This specific instrument is called a ‪@MarkWoodMusic1‬ Violins Viper violin. Not only does it have frets (which on violin, is an absolute blessing), but it is equipped with a unique strap-harness system that allows me to attach the violin directly to my body, which takes a huge amount of stress off of my fretting hand. All of this combined makes the Viper much easier to play than a normal violin. Plus, because it's electric, I get to plug it into some pretty snazzy pieces of gear to get some snazzy sounds.
    For those wondering about the setup I used to make this cover, here it is as follows:

    Hopefully, this motivates other violinists out there to start shredding some Buckethead songs knowing now that they are indeed possible and very doable on violin. I hope this shred cover of Soothsayer makes your day and inspires yallz to keep practicing, shredding, and having fun to your heart's content.
    See yallz later...

    Stumbled on this by accident... but you sir, have earned a sub
    I have never in my life heard a violin be shredded as hard as a guitar.
    Pretty spot on Buckethead with your tone on this as well. Very sick cover
    You should 100% try to get on the next Jared Dines shred collab

    • @BowbreakerMusic
      @BowbreakerMusic  หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Big thankies for your kind words. Oddly enough, although practicing was hard, trying to get a good shred tone with the violin was also a challenge when I was making this. Getting on Jared Dines’ shred collab seems like a snazzy idea indeed.

Naturally the first thing I searched was “ Buckethead Violin Cover” and we really enjoyed this thanks!

    First time seeing that instrument variation and as such you achieved a very respectable cover of Buckethead's Soothsayer. Check out "Violin on Fire" and his cover of Maggot Brain which of course he also does on a violin.

    I'm old enough to be your dad, Ive been rocking Buckethead since I was in highschool when he was a "new" artist, and Ive yet to go through his massive library of tunes . (with jumpman first song I heard). You absolutely nailed this song ( I play guitar and bass/piano and drums, so I understand what this entails) , well done good sir, thank you for this amazing cover. Edit, subscribed, looking forward to your future endeavors and I wish you the best. I didn't realize how amazing an electric violin could be, total rock and roll. I just watched this for the 3rd time in a row to study it. Damn!

      The violins I play in all of my videos are fretted violins from the company Wood Violins (founded by violinist Mark Wood). They make a specific model called the Viper violin, which is the one I use in this video. The Viper is super fun and easy to play and I can’t imagine my life without it.
