@Shawrma2 , nice use of vibrato on The Godfather theme.
@Shawrma2 can you repost to this thread? I just get a big black box that says something about the file not being the right format or is corrupt. 🙁

Yup, same here. If you post it to YouTube and link to it here, the video will play in a preview box right here in the forum.
You can set your video as unliisted on YouTube if you don't want the whole world to see it. Just don't set it to private or you will be the only one who can see it.
When the work's all done and the sun's settin' low,
I pull out my fiddle and I rosin up the bow.

@Shawrma2 Welcome to the forum and how wonderful that you jumped into the SUMMERTIME Party.
I have been playing that tune for about 1.5 years now. YOU DID a great job!!! Very very nice. Thanks for sharing.... It inspired me to get up and play the song IMMEDIATELY... I felt I must play it. INSPIRATION.
Welcome .. post often!

Coming along nicely, as for the sound post, hard to really tell by the picture, so yeah, have your teacher check it

thank you @Barry will do 🙂
@Fiddlerman I see a hole in the soundpost(see the image above.)
What should I do?
Do nothing about the hole,,,, that hole is there from the sound post setter. The sound post is set by using a tool, all / most sound posts have that hole.

@Shawrma2 - that's really coming along nicely! I like how to put a lot of expression into your playing.
@Ripton I'm feeling the joy! 
Thanks for joining the party!

Aha, managed to sneak in a few minutes online time ! Thanks for the posts @Shawrma2 and @Ripton - If I'm really lucky and the weather clears-up a bit, I may get a chance to get an outside-recording done - playing to the hills, the sky and the fields... LOL - fingers crossed for a dry day !
I seriously recommend not copying my mistakes. D'oh - 
Please make your own, different mistakes, and help us all learn :-)

Thanks all!
Here is another one. First part of the video is the Fiddlerman's version, then the Suzuki but in D instead of A and then I played in DDAD, dead man's tuning. I was wanting to do this more but have not. Since I have 2 violins at present thought I would try it!!
