Take the guesswork out of learning to play the country fiddle. Roy's Fiddle Magic Method will teach you an interesting variety of fiddle songs presented in a systematic "one-step-at-a-time" manner. Country fiddling is an honored part of the American tradition. The "Rural South" produced a rough country style that is now called "old time" music. Bluegrass is a fast-paced virtuoso style rooted in early country, gospel and blues music. Fiddling, like social dancing, has undergone a continuous broadening of scope with each generation. Some of the most recent Great American Fiddlers include; Johnny Gimble, Benny Thomasson, Kenny Baker, Mark O'Conner, Vassar Clements, Benny Martin, Clark Kessinger, Herman Johnson, Howdy Forrester, Byron Berline, Richard Greene, Chubby Wise and of course, Roy Clark. Roy Clark's exceptional talent on both the banjo and the guitar is so well-known that many people forget that he is also an outstanding fiddler.

I was looking for the right equipment for my Camac Isolde Celtic harp. I did NOT want to install the Dusty Strings pick-ups- seemed like way too much to add. This little gizmo was easy to install with the little pictures on placement- like, less than five minutes easy. I plugged the pickup into my new Roland Mobile Cube and it’s perfect! I don’t hear any sound distortion, and I think this will be just right when playing background music for noisier environments. Super happy with this!

I was excited to receive this kit. I do have several banjos already; however, I did not have a mountain banjo. I have built gourd banjos and ekontings (I went to Gambia in 2004 and 2007 to learn how to play and make them) from scratch, so I am not a beginner in terms of making instruments. I had a lot of fun putting the kit together. I do have a few observations regarding tips or slight modifications in the instruction manual, if interested.
Thanks!

I am very happy with the quality of the instrument. I am of Puerto Rican decent and it reminds me of my childhood, watching the musicians and learning to play myself. It is a beautiful guiro and sounds amazing.

It's great to be able to buy a hurdy gurdy in the US without having to wait for 6 months to a year or more. The Aplo is a quality entry level instrument that produces beautiful sound. It resonates very well and there are no buzzes or squeaks. Workmanship is very good. I got mine cottoned, rosined and tuned in a half hour. The transaction was easy and it arrived within a week.
I've been able to play some tunes on it with only a few hours of practice. It's going to be a lot of fun.

I love it, the entonation is really very good (sorry for my bat english).
Regards!
