I recorded this on a $500 entry level fiddle as a demo of what the fiddle can do in the hands of a mediocre fiddler The tune covers all four strings, to give an idea of the overall sound. Sorry about the lawnmower across the street. Sundays are like that. I recorded it in my living room on a Zoom H4 about 10 feet from me. All the echo is from the fiddle and the room, none added, and the only EQ is Audacity's standard "acoustic" curve.

Well done, Woodwiz! Nice tune and great sound for an entry level fiddle. I hope you sell a bunch of them.

Mediocre? Not hardly! I really admire your intonation and clean playing.

Playing since 2005 and sounding that good! Hmmmm. I better not tell Woodwiz that or he'll get a big head. Let's see, I've been playing since...and I don't sound that good...hmmmm--it's my dog that always bothers me and yelps during my performances that's holding me back--and no lawnmower bringing out the best in me....

Nice playing. I have old 78 recordings of several various players performing this, and this fits right in.
