This is the one string violin called The Monolin.
This is really the first one I built. It started with the
idea of the Chinese Erhu. But then I developed it
further to include frets. The instrument is made
from a plywood box, electrified with a peizo
transducer from the shack, a soldering iron stand
for a bridge and a fig branch for a neck with oak
trim for a fretboard.......
Note the high tech staples for frets
