I'd like to check out those Jay Haide violins. Leeneia, Yes I do have a fiddle but I also suffer from IDS (Instrument Dissatisfaction Syndrome) which affects a lot of musicians! I used to play 5 string banjo about 15 years ago and have been wanting to take it up again for ages but am skint. Which is why it was such a joy when my friend turned up with one, not only that but I could play it almost like it was yesterday! I've never played a harp and it may be a problem stretching my arms out as I am short, but maybe a small one would work. I've just discovered the wonderful Joanna Newsom and was so inspired by her, just like I was by Nigel Kennedy who inspired me to play the violin. I love the sound of the hammered dulcimer too but don't know if I'd like hitting something with hammers! I guess I just love music!
