We already do. You’d know if you weren’t so poor.

Was… was that the Fiddle the devil used in the competition? Cuz if so, no fucking wonder he lost.

If you rest it on your shoulder and are gentle when tensioning the strings, it can probably work, but don’t go too aggressive on the strings or they’ll probably snap (if gold) or bend the tensioners.

I’m going with “plausible” but totally impractical.

The song also didn’t say pure gold. I bet someone could rig up a 14k fiddle.

I thought people usually just did a gold coating around a more reasonable material. In this case, your fiddle would still be wood, but it would have a gold finish to look pretty.
