Traditionally, yes. Though I have heard of violin strings being used, but that changes the sound drastically.

@Kizales

You are quite welcome, let us know how it turns out.

@carnright

Bridge is flat, at least on a traditional model. The strings are played together almost always, the oldest type had two strings, one melody and one drone string.

And there are a few other differences as well, (I think (I don't have one in front of me) there is a difference in the frets). I read somewhere that he plays his zouk with a mandocello tuning, which caused some confusion on another video where he tried to indicate this by calling it a "Irish Bouz...

A bit jazzy for my tastes, though very good. I had always thought she had the voice for this song.

Birch has to be the best tone wood, I love it, sounds so clear and loud.

Are you sure it's a '46: It looks like it went through the war, Lol. Sounds excellent though, a bit of work on the finish and she'll be a gem.

@mommaj36

No, they are in Kilkrankie, Scotland. Read the sleeve note on the CDs, listen to the introduction of the shows. The broadcaster and the production company may very well be in London, but this was filmed in an old mansion in Scotland, the same location as 'The Highland Sessions' were fi...

I play this as a jig on the Tin whistle, you do an excellant job of it.

@TheFlashbabeBanned

My intention with my previous comment was not to start a fight, but to correct ignorance stated in a very rude and pejorative manner.

This is why thy don't let you listen to music for geography tests!

Not a one stoped. Jeeze, I would have sat down for an hour to listen.

I do believe that this might be Bilbo's Garden shed.

@fmrelay

Scots are called scots because of the Irish tribe of the Scoti who emigrated from Ireland to scotland.

13:41 Seem in to it doesn't he?

@im0mole

I do believe this song has been around longer then the Dubliners, they did a version (Ciaran Bourke singing) way back in the sixties or seventies.

@DesmondPK

His buddy owned a cabin near by. I do not think he bought the land, but I think his estate owns it now.

Whoops, my earlier comment was meant for a different video. I think Luke Kelly did the definitive version of this song, nothing against this one though.

@lv4ev5

I was thinking, Blamire would have fit in perfectly as a relative of Mr. Scrimshaw. I was also disapointed to find they had left out Edie, they included her brother but not her.

I'm torn between two versions, The Corries and Luke's. The corries had a nicer, slower arrangement, but as usual Good sir Kelly knocks the house down with sheer force of passion and spirit.

@AlanWattParrot

This was taken from a DVD by Christy Moore, Shane was a guest musician.

foggy band that stick...

@ImperialistRunningDo

I do believe that that is a set of illun pipes. That is spelled wrong I know, but for the life of me I cannot remember how to spell it. Also: Forgive me for accidentialy disliking your comment, I meant to click 'Reply'

Sounds similar to "The well below the valley. Would there be a connection between the two tunes?

Do you mind if I ask how you carved the Rosette sound hole? I've always admired such things but be damned if I could do it my self. 1:37, that's peculiar bracing in the bottom corners, would you comment or explain the logic behind that? This is a beautiful instrument and well played I might add.

What's the name of the Strathspey?

Old seasons were best! New ones not bad, but no comparison.

@sweden8882

You misread the comments, the language is apparently a form of Turkish.

"Music is the international language"- Julie Fowlis

I agree with every word. How terrible that only a minority of the worlds population does not realize this.

That's a nice job they did on Compo's house. Didn't recognize it.

@TheEyes629

They modernize them. That is how they expose them to 10 times the audience. I won't dispute that they are good musicians, but I wouldn't call them a traditional band (which you did not, I know, but the implication was there), the modernization is not something that I particularly agr...
