Yeah. I just played it by ear. I'm still tweaking it whenever I find
a better note, though. I still need to find out how to TUNE the
instrument! Hehehe.
What kind of songs do you play?

Hi Alina,
great news!! Enjoy your hurdy!
I bought my strings from the net: musicmakers www.harpkit.co. They
were the cheapest and very helpful.
Where did you find the notes for Frere Jacques? We used to sing it
at home and would love to be able to play this song on the hurdy.
All the best
Christa

I'm really excited! Aside from a missing string, my Hurdy-Gurdy has
arrived safely and all in one piece! I picked out the notes for the
song Frère Jacques, but I think it's a little off. I haven't gotten a
tuner yet, and I need to replace a string (the string that's wrapped
in metal came snapped and frayed). Is the best way to get a
replacement string over the internet? Or should I check the local
violin and strings store?
