Default Name of Washboard Instrument
Greetings!

What is the actual 'name' of the washboard instrument often used in zydeco music? I know it starts with an 'F' but cannot for the life of me remember it.

Thank you.

That would be the vest frottoir. Vest, because it's worn like a vest.

It is called a washboard by many but regionally it is indeed called a frottoir.
