I learned Pete Seeger's version of Sally Ann in G tuning a long time ago. When I came back to the banjo a few years ago, I transposed Sally Ann to double C tuning and this is the result. Played on an Alvarez bluegrass banjo with an all wood tone ring/rim set up. Very experimental!!

My version of Winder Slide played on my own made A scale 5 string, This should give you an idea of how my block rims sound. The 11 inch rim on this banjo is of Canary Wood with a Paduk cap, just like the rim in the ad.. No tone metal ring. It has 24 brackets and a maple neck with a Fiberskyn head.
