You also get two balls of cotton for their ears just in case they still complain.
Many of the articles in the section Some Pointers on Playing the Fiddle were previously published in the National Oldtime Fiddlers Newspaper in the Teacher's Tips column. If you have any questions about your fiddle and/or how to play it, feel free to Contact me. Put FIDDLE in the subject line
