He's the devil, and he's the judge of the contest...so how did he lose? I mean...isn't dishonesty an inherent trait in the devil?

So, maybe the devil was just trying to get rid of a crappy fiddle?

The loss was so overwhelming, even the devil was powerless to rule otherwise. If word had gotten out that his judging was so absurdly lopsided, he never would have been able to sign up anyone else to risk their soul for anything.

What's funny is that the devil's riffing is clearly actually superior.

It's just electric guitar is allowed somehow.

The end of Johnny's is great, but the singing part is far worse than the devil.

On purpose. Giving Johnny a fiddle made of gold has as predictable a result as letting him win the lottery. Within 2 years Johnny was addicted, divorced, bankrupt, and had lost all his friends. It was purely an evil thing to do.

Maybe Johnny became a good country writer, though.

Nothing is worse than the radio version that says I done told you once you son of a gun rather than I done told you once you son of a bitch

Completely ruins the song imo

Not only is it not clearly, it's not superior.

He got his arse beat. There was nothing to judge. That’s how good Johnny was.
