Ha! Jason Anick was in that first video. Berkeley instructor, Gypsy jazz violinist tres excellent, and electro mandolin player as well. I do have a fretted electric cello for one purpose: we'll play in one club with one specific line-up, and it's loud, and the monitors are horrible (as in I can't hear myself) and I got so tired worrying about feedback, not hearing myself, and mystery intonation I punted. Works great, and the crowd has no clue that it's a cello on training wheels.
