AGP #347 - “Puddy One String”
(One String Cigar Box Fiddle)
Scale: 330mm / 13inches
Violin String: 2nd A, Aluminium Alloy Wound, Solid, Steel Core.
The Neck is one piece Radiata Pine treated with Old Baltic Stain & Gilly Stephenson’s Clear Restoring & New Timber Polish, Sharpie Guitar Type Fret Markers, not sure if this is how ones supposed to do a Fiddle Build, but this is my version, using a few angles etc. found on Mr. Google and making it up as I went along, which is what I do with a lot of builds, thanks to Jim Morris for some String advice (still yet to be delivered and fitted) and Matthew Borczon for the idea and inspiration, remains to be seen if it becomes just another instrument in my collection that I can’t play, or not, but will certainly make an attempt to make a noise with it :-D

"Thanks Dave & Matthew", will definitely have a go at "Sawing On The Strings", maybe if I put a dress on and have a facelift I might become as great a player as Alison Krauss  ;-D

I love it!! It is not as hard to play as you might think, just takes some practice

Ya the playing part is a challenge. I just saw away. I got ok at it in my last fiddle craze. I want to overdub the dijeridoo along with a guitar for 3 track madness. You stand a good chance AGP with this beauty. Let’s “pull the cats tail” AGP.
