Strung and setup done

Here's the whole fiddle finished. Fine tuners on each string. Ebony fingerboard and tailpiece. Sitka spruce top, Sinker spruce on the back. Walnut sides, Mahogany tail, shoulder and blocks. Chinese maple neck. Yahoody strings. She's loud and powerful. A little deep bodied to be easily held under the chin, but i manage. It plays great right in your lap with a position something like a cello.
