Hmm, I don't have an electric, but even my normal violin "buzzes" sometimes. Is there anything on the exterior that might be slightly loose? Sometimes a screw or a little piece of metal can make a noise like that.

Melodic Hmm, I don't have an electric, but even my normal violin "buzzes" sometimes. Is there anything on the exterior that might be slightly loose? Sometimes a screw or a little piece of metal can make a noise like that. You're right, a "buzz" comes from a loose part on a violin. It can be the chinrest, or it could be the bass bar loosening (it happens). There are a few cases of the sound post causing trouble also. I have no experience with electric violins, but is there some kind of pickup apparatus inside? Could it be vibrating (i.e. touching the "moving parts" or vibrating parts of the instrument? Is it loose that it can move freely and not fixed?) Just a hypothesis. EDIT: forgot to mention. Do you wear jewelry when you play? necklaces can make a buzz when they come in contact with the moving parts.

check the input/output, you may be getting a slight feedback. Also, mess around with the order you turn things on, I know we get a buzz in or subs sometimes in the theatre because of dumb little crap like that, so it could be that's the problem, seeing how it's electric.

I have a cheap-ish electric violin- my friend/bandmember got it off ebay actually. Kind of scary how much you can get off ebay eh? It even came with a wee lil amp, and a case, and all plugs....and crappy bow too. I have NO idea how much it cost as my friend refuses to divulge, but a quick search on ebay could probably disclose that info. My favorite part about it is the fact its PINK! *whee* and rather stylishly designed- for an ebay sell.
Completely different playing than an acoustic- will ALWAYS prefer my wooden Lamia, but for kicks, giggles, entertaining echo effects, and good fun rockin out- nothing beats an electric.
The tone is almost impossible to screw up- (which is good)
but the tone itself is rather lame- (which is bad)
There are more expensive versions of course that could probably mimic a true violin but I'm convinced that electric violins will never have the same soul and unique voice that each lovely acoustic is blessed with.

everyone's talking about things being loose...I don't know much about an electric violin, but I was under the impression that electric violins did not vibrate...Of course, I don't have one, so I can't be certain.

The strings still vibrate, as on an electric guitar. The difference from an acoustic is in that it does not allow the vibrations to resonate out of a hollow body, but rather, through an amp.
