Genre: Unknown/None Chosen / Playing Style: Clawhammer and Old-Time
If there was ever a tune that just FITS a 5-string, standard g tuned banjo, played in claw hammer style, it's gotta be this one. The brush strokes provide a "clip-clop" horse-like counterpoint to the melody. Played on my Vega FW-5, fyberskin, no knot, Steve Davis compensated bridge, D'Addario J-60+
