Huh, I never thought of that. None-the-less, I still need my own decent bow.

Yes, I've played a bit Paganini also, mainly the 13th and 24th caprice. Also played through some partitas by Bach but i find them mostly repetative and a bit boring. Bachs Chaconne and partita in E are nice though. Tchaikovsky is really nice. Have not got the chance to play it yet but i sure would like to.
