Genre: Old Time / Playing Style: Clawhammer and Old-Time
Re-learned for the TOTW, 9/21/18. When Carolyn (the presenter for Quince Dillon's High D) introduced me to the tune a while back I was trying to do everything with 3-finger picks and without re-tuning. Now I'm back to good old clawhammer re-tuning mode and my short scale Carolina Banjo made it even easier to hit the high D at the 10th fret when tuned to double D tuning.

Well done, Janet. You know, there is no reason you can't retune with finger picks on!

Thanks, Don, true, true. Problem was playing with a large group in public with a band leader who made fast transitions between 200 tunes and chooses one seconds before playing. But I adore Everette Burkhard anyway!
