Each violin is equipped with a Baggs bridge and Mills microphone. This setup produces a strong, clean, warm, reliable acoustic sound.

Why three violins? One stays in standard violin tuning. The other two are for open tunings.

One stays in standard tuning. A second is for alternate tunings. Both these violins produce the full range of both a violin and a viola.

The third is strung with "octave" strings for cello range.

A range of sound can be produced on these instruments from very natural to highly effected.

Both the electric and acoustic violins run through Pendulum preamps which produce a strong, clean sound suitable for both large and small venues.

For modest indoor venues she can use an ATM-35 microphone on the acoustic violins.

Judy uses Lexicon processing for her basic sound. She also has a fun selection of pedals including phasers, octave, delay, and distortion.
