Hey, ive been playing my violin for about 6 years or so, and I really wany to start playing electric, mostly because of yellowcard and that alex mitchell and ed alleyne-johnson. I was wondering what basic equipment i need.

things i know i need or think i need

electric violin (duh)
bow (do i need a special one or can i use the same one?)
preamp
amp (do i need any cables or should i expect these to come with the amp or preamp?)
pedals(are there special electric violin ones or can i buy the same ones my friend buys for his electric guitar?)

all help is appreciated
