Violinists
When choosing a violinist you have the option of acoustic or an electric violin. Both options provide a beautiful sound. With an electric violin you get an instrument that sounds a little edgier, like you would hear in a piece of rock music.
All violinists can perform on both instruments: electric and acoustic. Here is an example of a classical piece of music performed on an electric violin. Listen to the sound output.
