It’s the easiest instrument to learn except maybe for kazoo — you can get into it in a week or two well enough to show off. People generally eat it up: “Hey look . . . he’s playing a SAW!” What I like best is being able to sit in on some good bluegrass (the slow numbers). Hank Williams tunes are just right. You can get together with other saw-ers and do barbershop harmony too. Yes, you can probably play the saw you have hanging in the garage, but even the best of them (Sandvik or Disston) will only give you an octave or so. This professional saw gets a good two octaves and sounds fine wailing along as harmony with a fiddle. No particular skill needed except you have to be able to carry a tune. — J.
