Ok I have a little time on my hands as the shop is currently 8 degrees and I am justifying my procrastination by developing customer relations through storytelling. Musical instruments are very personal, and having been a keeper of a few subpar instruments throughout my life, I find that in the stories they hold, there is a richness and depth that give meaning to me each time I open up the case and in my playing. I have a fiddle that I bought at a flea market in the late 80's
