A group playing Greasy Coat late Saturday evening at the 2008 Stonewall Jackson Jubilee.

Dwight Diller is the lead fiddle. Dwight is tuned "high bass and low counter" for this tune as recommended to him by Sherman Hammons.

  • Hey Yew... what is low bass and high counter tuning?

  • It's the other way around, "high bass and low counter". That's what Dwight calls it; I just call it high bass. From regular tuning just crank the low string up to A.

    I think Dwight makes this distinction because Sherman Hammons showed it to him coming from cross tuning (high bass/high counter--AEAE) and told him it was important to let that string (the 3rd string) down for this tune (whereas most folks, including Burl Hammons, play the tune in cross).

    I hope I didn't make that more confusing.

  • very nice jammin'

  • It was a nice quiet foggy night and a nice bunch of folks to play with.
