Do you ever have occasion to play into a microphone versus having a mic attached to the violin? Or, are your venues not that large or noisy and no serious competition from other instruments?
Most small groups I've heard played into stand mics but I wonder why not the attached mics? Sound not as good? String noise? Other problem?
Then too, I know you possess a pretty awesome instrument and that helps

It occurred to me later that, in blue grass at least, different instruments will sometimes step up to the mic, in effect spot lighting that instrument for a solo and this would not work if everybody was wired equally into the sound system.
But I also wonder how they control feedback on a wide open stage?
Maybe the mics are that "tight" ?

I hear that loud and clear Daniel. For acoustic guitar I have used widgets that cover and muffle the sound hole of the guitar but I don't like them because I use a lot of dynamics on my picking hand and the sound dynamics just don't come out as much.
Let the soundman do what he does with the PA gear for sure!
