26 Jan 06 - 01:05 PM (#1656058) Subject: Tech: Look for 'beater fiddle', UK , Spring From: Clinton Hammond My lovely fiddle-player and her pool-boy are doing 3 months in the UK from early May until end of July.... She's loath to travel with either of her fiddles, so I told her I'd ask here, if anyone knew of a decent place to pick up an affordable beater fiddle for her to use while they're over there... 200 bucks Canadian is her upper limit... There is also every possibility that she'd be willing/able to return the fiddle when she was done with it Hints? Leads? Suggestions? |

This sounds quite an easy thing to sort out, but there's no point in my lining up a £75 fiddle in Stoke if she's flying in to Heathrow and heading for the south coast or something. Will be glad to help. get in touch via PM if you like. |
