River Cane

This is the Arundo Donax river cane that grows extensively in the traditional lands of the Apache. Although there appears to be no record of them making fiddles from it I am convinced it would have been an important source of hollow resonant stalks. Some of my fiddles are made from the lower part of this cane. The sound produces matches that of the agave.
