  • What brand of banjo is that?

  • @jazz31162 The pot is from a 1928 tenor Vega Tubaphone M. Bart Reiter made the neck for it.

  • What tuning are you using? Really enjoy your playing.

  • @buckdancerful Glad you like it. The tuning in is fDGCD. I play this out of the F position without fretting the second string. This version of Cumberland Gap is played out of G normally so you would capo on the second fret to play out of G.

  • That sounds like the the version that I heard dwight diller play!!! thats awesome

  • @keefersfiddle Dwight is one of my favorite banjo players. You're right, this version is really close to his.

  • Really Good! I play frailing banjo. I use my index finger when playing. I get kind of an Uncle Dave Macon sound.

  • beautiful!

  • Thanks very much. Worked on it this afternoon. Doesn't sound as good as yours though.

  • @Titanius1066 I really love this, did you get around to tabbing any of it?

  • Love this version....tabs would be awesome!
