Second Fiddle

I have changed from fiddle to mandolin so you can take my words with a grain of salt. I suggest you look at your own video and watch carefully the position of your left hand. To me it looks like it changes between Angeline The Baker and the next tune and again for the last waltz. Even though I have frets to guide my intonation I find the neck of the mandolin has to rest accurately in my left hand or my fingers will miss that exact landing place for a clean note. The neck must land accurately in the same place in your hand every time you pick it up, you may have to shift your hand to reach a note but it should land back there when the reach is done. Feel for any irregularities in the neck and if there are any, memorize where you feel them in your hand, it may just be the bottom corner or edge of the nut but your hand must recognize that as its home position.

Good job by the way, I did not learn that many whole tunes while I fiddled
