@aestusx Hi there I do believe I'm using a railroad spike to "capo" the drone string. That was an older banjo and I can't remember for sure.. but I think that's the case.
I know you're a busker and all but have you ever considered filming a tutorial video? Money to be made there with a sound like yours my friend. If you're ever coming though the Bay Area let me know, love to see you live.
@shinboxer72 Thanks for the kind words. I've been asked before to teach and make a video tutorial but frankly I don't have a clue how to teach. I've always been self taught and am a rather idiosyncratic type, which doesn't seem to translate to making money and being successful, etc. Maybe someday I'll have built up enough experience to offer beginner lessons on frailing / clawhammer / and teaching basic old time songs. But right now I just don't have the confidence. Cheers!
I've learned your version enough to kind of limp through it, and oddly enough, also learned another version in the same tuning. That makes three different ways I've come across to play this song so far. You do a great job with it.
Quick question. I noticed that you're using a capo and was wondering if you were using a capo on your 5th string as well.
Thanks and very great song. Love it.
