Hi ! No you cannot because the stringing is different Violin G.D. A. E. Four strings. Guitars Not the same and i believe has 6 strings. So only by learning both instruments would one be able to play either. The Swan violin or cello. Very often Handel`s Largo. Hot Canary Alfredo Campoli

I think Jimmy Page is just using that for dramatic effect, and to make some sweet sounds. I guess you could use a lot of hammer ons and pull offs along with droning a note with the bow.

There is an arch or arc on a violin allowing the strings to be run across by a bow. On a guitar, the string are flat. This is not possible on a guitar as a result.

Check out Jimmie Page in the Led Zepplin Movie "The song remains the Same" It's pretty kewl...... He Plays with a bow in it. Just can't remember which tune or how far into the movie it is. Been a while.

Are you sure that the guitar wasn't a cello? Most likely a guitar can't be played like a violin.

If you wanted to play all the stings at once.... or fit the guitar with a bridge so that the strings can be played seperately.
I hope you have long arms.
