Thread Name: Instrument Frustration
Subject: RE: Instrument Frustration
Noone knows this, but I have a 3/4 size fiddle. A decent German made student variety. It fits my short stubby fingers as I am slightly under 5 feet. About 4'11 3/4" but who's counting. I'm absolutely not a violinist or a fiddler. I just fiddle with it behind closed doors. But it hurts to play! Carpal tunnel & arthritis & such. I might be able to enjoy fiddlin' if it didn't hurt so. Of course, then I could actually pull it out & fiddle & maybe be able to play a tune in tune now & then.
