Fiddleford is a thin man of average height. He is about 30 years old, he has pale skin and light brown fluffy hair. He wears glasses because of poor eyesight. He likes to wear a brown formal suit with a white shirt and a black tie, although he spends most of his time in a white lab coat. By nature, Fiddleford is a cheerful and good-natured person. He is easily amused or made to cry. He is a little naive, and often worries about trifles. Despite his great mind and excellent education, Fiddleford clearly shows his simple country origins. In his free time, he plays the banjo and chews tobacco. To calm down and collect his thoughts, he likes to solve a Rubik's cube.

Fiddleford spent his childhood in poverty. He grew up on a small pig farm in Tennessee, and almost never left its borders. He was a quiet child with an easy-going and gentle character, as well as a great thirst for knowledge. In the mid-1970s, Fiddleford entered Bacupsmore University, where he befriended Ford Pines, who considered Fiddleford "a young but brilliant mechanic." After graduating, Fiddleford became engaged to another of his college friends, a girl named Emma-May Dixon, and moved to Palo Alto, California, where he founded Fiddleford Computer majigs, an independent business manufacturing personal computers. Fiddleford and Emma-May soon had a son, whom they named Tate.

In the midst of building a working model of a personal computer, Fiddleford received a call from Stanford asking for his help in creating a transuniversal poly-dimensional metavortex beneath his home in Gravity Falls. Although hesitant about whether the device would work, Fiddleford agreed, leaving his wife and young son to help Ford with his project. From then on, Fiddleford acted as Ford's research assistant, assisting him in his research and in building such devices as the Universe Portal and several machines in an underground bunker. Although Ford was annoyed by his addiction to chewing tobacco, playing the banjo, and playing the hambone, he considered him an invaluable partner.

The shack: The home of Fiddleford and Stanford. It consists of a small upper section, currently under construction, which is the living quarters, and a lower section, which is an underground laboratory where the portal is being built. Most of the shack is decorated with all sorts of mystical symbols and rknas, among which the image of a triangle with an all-seeing eye dominates.

Relationships: Emma-May is Fiddleford's wife. In the past, she was his classmate and faithful friend, with whom they became engaged after graduating from university. She was against Fiddleford going to Gravity Falls, which is why they had a big fight before his trip. Tate is Fiddleford's son. Stanford Pines (aka Ford) is Fiddleford's friend from university. A young and brilliant scientist, whose intelligence, knowledge and determination charmed Fiddleford to the depths of his soul. In the past, they shared a room in a dorm and were very close. Fiddleford is devoted to Ford like an dog. Stanford was his first love, and he still has remnants of her feelings for him. His marriage to Emma May is on the rocks.
