This is by far my favorite version of this song and would love to know more information on it such as the tuning that it’s in (open, double, standard) I typically relative tune to a key I can sing in anyway. It sounds like two-finger style?
It’s on YouTube, but since I’m new, it doesn’t allow me to post the YouTube link here.

It is an awesome version for sure!
I’d say it’s clawed as opposed to 2-finger. I hear a lot of double thumbing.

Thanks for the intel. It very well may be. Love that version though. I need more practice to play anything outside of open tuning and with successfully findIng melody notes. I’m quite new to playing, so it’s like learning a foreign language.

I think it sounds more like plectrum banjo or tenor banjo. The key is D.
