@banjovenus sounds like g minor in this particular bit judging by the sound and the capoe as it is. dock boggs and the other great clawhammer pickers used this tuning to sing the blues
@ACSmither89 I think the head size is a better indicator, and it doesn't look like it's big enough to be a tenor. There are also 19 frets, which isn't quite as common for tenor banjos.
anybody have a clue how her banjo is tuned when its open (without capo)?
