Notes: IMPORTANT: the tuning is actually fDADE, so I tune to fCGCD and put a capo on the second fret.
This is from Magnus Letterlund's fantastic YouTube channel teaching Nordic songs on the mandolin. This one is an old Swedish dance tune.
I enjoyed playing it on the mandolin and thought I'd make a little banjo arrangement.
It might be more suitable to play with a plectrum. I play it with a thumbpick so I can use fingers in some parts.

Notes: IMPORTANT: tuning is actually fDADE, I play it by first tuning to fCGCD and putting a capo on 2nd.
This is a lovely little traditional Swedish tune, I first heard it played on nyckelharpa by Emelie Waldken on YouTube.
I play it with a thumbpick and a hybrid picking/fingers style, but I'm sure just a pick would be fine too.
