Salutations. I took my 5 string viola to a trad session last night, along with the octave pedal (Boss OC3). There were a lot of melody instruments at the session (whistles, mandolins etc.) and only one guitar so I pretty much played the bass for the night, it was great! Also, because it was mainly jigs and reels, and because the signal was so clear from the viola through the octave pedal, I could do most of the gig one handed left hand pizz (one fingered pretty much, C1-G1-C1-G1-G-C1-G1-C2-C1-G1-C1-G1-G-G1-C1-C1-) so that kept my right hand free for other tasks, such as drinking beer. Hahaha, playing the viola just got even EASIER!!!!
