- Description
Lumberjack instrument
Norwegian melody played on a Viking cello. Mrs. Rindlisbacher calls it a Viking cello because Knute Reindahl of Madison, who made one, called it that. Its origin is the lumber camp. Cracker box on a pitch fork or broom stick - probably a Scandinavian idea. Mrs. Rindlisbacher's instrument is made from wood from a chest dated 1722 (Norway spruce). The measurements are taken from Mr. Reindahl's instrument. She uses a violin bow. The instrument has one string. There is a range of three octaves. Different tunings are used. Movable fret was originally piece sawed off a pitch fork handle, with a groove in it.
