What is Fiddle Sticks?
1.
fiddle sticks are long, slender wooden (usually) sticks that are used to accompany a violinist or fiddler. The fiddle sticks player stands to the right of the fiddler and taps the sticks on the fiddler's strings, much as in the style of a hammered dulcimer.
"Get away from me with those damned fiddle sticks, you nut. I'm trying to play Bach's Chaccone!"
