4.08 kg striking device played most excellently by John Moore of Bluegrass Etc. at Steve Kaufman's Acoustic Kamp (SKAK) Just John and his Martin D-35 played with a flatpick.
Just awesome. I've always been amazed of how fast flatpicking compensates for the lack of rhythm. I do it fingerstyle. Check out my version over on my channel.
By far one of the greatest flatpickers playing today. And a great teacher, too.

I thought it was about a hammer used to drive steel in the ground for the railroad.Like john henry, a steel driving man

I've heard that the real meaning of this song is suggesting the proper hammer to use when playing a hammered dulcimer. :)
