NMC - Vassar Style Head Fiddle
Hey All,
For those who dig the Vassar style carved head fiddles, I came across this cool old "Duiffopruggar" labeled fiddle at a jam recently. I just think they are so cool. This one was really lovely to play and had a really beautiful open tone. Evidently made by a really good maker (Vuillaume or Darazey?). Id love to have one of these, especially if it is as good as this one, but they tend to be a bit too expensive just to buy on a lark. I'm don't really play fiddle. Anyway, just wanted to show the thing, as I think it is awesome. I am a sucker for interesting instruments.
