Welp, my will power is breaking down. I set up an appointment for later this week at the violin shop in town.

I am going to bring my fiddle down there and play one, and see how it sounds compared to my current fiddle. It’s in the right price range – won’t break the bank. But if I don’t hear a big difference between my current fiddle and these Romanian instruments then I guess it’s all about my technique……
