The sound should be about the same. The difference is the string tuning. Bass strings are tuned in fourths, fiddle strings in fifths.

[Grassapelli]

@theomgteens Most, if not all of my lesson content is free. Take a look at the content on the web site: onlinefiddlelesson[dot]com

I regret I don't have time to watch my video again to attempt to understand your questions. The first four bars are all the same chord.

This may be a little too advanced right now, but next year it may all make sense.

I would like to hear a stroh violin.

I looked it up in Wikipedia. It has a horn like thing coming out of it. Can you see a group of these marching around on the football field?

Awesome.

I am so lost after the first 4 measures. When he switches to the 4th chord what is going on with the finger position? Is he playing every other note?

Also does he move to the a string?
