This one seems to have come out pretty good. I am calling my previous 2 fiddle attempts 'prototypes' because that is pretty much what they were.

3 string with electric guitar strings that work okay for me.

Thanks, Vinnie, AGP and Ambrose.   I may try to make a sound sample this week.  I need to buy a lot of camera batteries first.  It may take a lot of takes.

Thanks, AGP, but you may have a long wait.

Thanks, Denbo.  I think I will call it Fidel.

Thank you, BQ. 

Thanks Dave.  Pretty good volume.  Right now I am having trouble with the small string squeaking.

Thanks, Pick.  Swamp fiddle

Looks Good 'UJ', now awaiting a sound sample, a bit of  "Sonata No 3 Ballade" would be nice, here's the Music, just in case you've forgotten the chops  :-D
