thanks for your kind words. I notice some scratchiness, what do you think: Bow pressure, strings or bow problem? How was the tempo? While playing it seems good, but now that I listen to it, it sounds a little fast...

well, lets talk tempo first. this tune has many versions, from slow and soulful to fast and old timey..so I think that boils down to what youre trying to do.  Try playing it slow with long bows , it will help you find the "weak" spots.

It is really hard to tell in the video, but by the way your bow was acting, i think you might have been running it a bit too loose.

hope this helps...but the truth is your making great progress..impressed !!
