Hi Richard,
I really like your playing on this tune, and was wondering what banjo you were playing?
Thanks for posting it.
Regards
Martin

One of my favorite songs. This is probably the best that I have heard it played. Thank you. My kind of banjo sound that I love.

I wish it were my banjo playing this tune. It is Don Reno. I posted the MP3 as an example of pre-war tone. Sorry that you mistook the artist. I thought it was clear form the post. Anyway here is the banjo you are hearing:
