Couldn't load pickup availability
Fender's first attempt at an electric violin in 1958 did not sell well and it wasn't until 1969, after the purchase by CBS, that Fender tried again. Their early models in this era, prior to the FV-1 and FV-3 that were made in Japan, had a patented bridge pickup that can't be matched with the more common piezo pickups in the FV-1 and FV-3's.
This one, from our Founder's Collection, is in great shape with only a few dings on the body (see photos). It's got a new chinrest and pegs and Helicore electric violin strings.
Case and bow not included.

This whistle has a beautiful, warm tone and is very responsive. I have used a variety of whistles (including other Kerry whistles), and this one is my favorite to play. While recording my latest album, I needed a whistle in this key pretty quickly, and Lark in the Morning had this delivered to me within a few days. I highly recommend this instrument, and Lark in the Morning is a fantastic place to purchase from with excellent customer service.

I already play a mountain lap dulcimer, but this one gives the instrument a whole different dimension to playing. Really beautiful craftsmanship. Thus isn’t a toy, but a lovely wooden instrument. Very easy to play!

Multifacsited approach to something fun to do!

Plays like a dream. I have MS and am no longer able to play guitar, but this uke let's me play songs again and sing. I had no idea how much I'd missed having music in my body. Thanks, Lark!

I love these little hand carved wood whistles from Brazil
