Fiddle Box vs. Misfit

[redwad]

This year I got a fiddle box from Marlin Watkins. For those of you have both of his styles of box call how would you describe the difference? TIA

I really don't have a preference in using either one, they are both great calls. The Misfit will get your fingers away from the sides of the box... but you can also play it like a fiddle box depending on how you want to hold either one.  The handle on the Misfit gives it a little more look / character .. IMO

Misfit doesn't have a base, so its a bit different but still that iconic Watkins yawk of a yelp. I prefer the misfit.

I don't have a misfit but have two fiddles, hard for me to believe anything coming from Marlin woundn't sound amazing!
