It's hard to pick just one but if you like there fiddles I would highly recommend getting a longbox from them as well.

I had the pleasure of watching TJ sand an tune a couple fiddle boxes, I was in all . His ability to change the sound was amazing. I want to say it's a talent but it's a gift , the ability to hear the hen he's / you are looking for and producing that sound .

Sitting here now listening to clips Don sent me of his Fiddle Box in different combinations, have it down to 3 and am trying to get it down to one by tomorrow. Really torn between two in particular plus one I like but am not sure and whichever that ends up being will be with me opening day.

Best to mortgage everything and just buy all 3 , you will never be happy with yourself if you don't .. LOL... Yes it's just hard making that choice because all of his are so good and easy to run.

Only thing I have to mortgage is my ugliness and they won't give me much for that. I have to pick up a money order tomorrow or the day after. I will not tell you which I chose but it came down to an all walnut, a butternut mora or a butternut persimmon. Drove my company crazy listening to the 8 or so files he sent me and whittling them down to those three and then to two of them and then the final choice.

Mr. Watkins sent 9 sound files based on what I was looking for, ended up ordering 2, "not patiently" waiting for them to show up...
