Based on a recording I heard (Tommy Jarrell) with the 'A' and 'B' parts switched. Played on my cigar box fiddle, tuned ADAE.

I learned this cross-tuned EDAE, but I like the D drone I've heard in some recordings so I went with DCGD... This fiddle (my favorite!) is a Guarneri copy made by Ottomar Hausmann.

Here's a Beast! A viola with a classical set up strung with BLACK DIAMOND fiddle strings (due to their length, the viola is 16.5") and cross-tuned ADAD. (Any wonder why I name this instrument 'Frank')??

I've been wanting to record this for some time now (perhaps I should have waited longer??). Played (muted) on Ebenezer.

Played with a baroque-style bow on my Don Rickert cigar box fiddle. Sorry about the 'warble' at the beginning --

Learned at a festival in June of 2009. This is a 'no-name' eBay fiddle I call "Tom", since it had Thomastik Dominant strings on it when it arrived. (They've been removed, of course!). Tuning is DDAD
