I have had this fiddle for almost twenty years.  It was made in the 1930's or 40's. I got it from a fiddler in East Texas.  The sound is bright with medium volume.  The bridge is flat and low. This makes it easy to finger, make string crossings and play double stops.   It does require good bow control in order to only sound one string though. I played this fiddle for many years, but now it just sits.  Time for it to move on to someone who will play it. 

Some of the pegs are real tight and will require some work.  But, other wise there are no major flaws other than a few light scratches here an there.

The case is old but in good shape and there is no bow.
