One I use a lot is to roll all the treble off the pickup - you get a 
fair impression of a flute, if you give some thought to finger 
vibrato.

Using a foot volume pedal allows you to bring in the volume to a 
sensible level - it's tricky to get this right first time wihtout one 
- either you're too quiet or (more often) too loud and adjusting the 
volume knob whilst holding the e-bow is a tad tricky ;)



All the best,
