On banjo in B maj, like in the video? Capoing 4th fret? I see a way to do it sort of melodic style but not sure how to get it across on text lol. I can make a quick video later -- but it puts you up around the 11th fret:
1rst string @11th fret (M)
5th string @13th fret (T)
1rst string @11th (M)
2nd string @ 12th (I)
3rd string @ 13th (T)
1rst string open (assume capo @ 4th fret) (M)
2nd string open (capo 4th) (I)
...etc...

From the capo at the 4th fret, this is what I get with a quick analysis

BTW there is no blue notes involved here. It's major pentatonic scale with a G6/9 chord finish (more major pentatonic).

Very welcome!!! But… I was kinda rushing and just realized my 5th was out of tune and capo’d at the wrong spot lol!
So everything in that video pretty much stands, but when in proper tune you’ll want to use the 13th fret on the 5th string (and perhaps use your ring finger to fret it, instead of your pinky.)
Sorry about that lol

The notes in Rick's tab are entirely accurate, and as he points out, it's NOT bluesy at all.
Now, how many ways can we figure out to play those notes on the banjo, eh? };^)
(In about a minute or so I just came up with three or four in addition to what's in Rick's tab.)
