Hi Folks,
Not sure if this is the best place to post, but I'm trying to work out this cover of Tom Petty's Walls as played by Dalton Mills.
I see he has his banjo capo set at the fourth fret but the tuning must be something besides the open G? I can't get my strings to sound anything like what he's up to if I mimic his chord positions.
Here's the clip: youtube.com/watch?v=KCTViuMvSUs
Alternatively, if anyone has tab for a Scruggs Style approach, I'd be happy to butcher that instead!
Much appreciation,
Justin
I just gave it a short glance, but it sort of looks like he may be using the C, F, G chords. Try that and see if it fits.
Thanks for the prompt reply!
I did give those a go as that was my hunch as well, but the notes are far off what he's playing. I was wondering if he's using an alternate tuning of some sort. Maybe my ears are just that off...
I get closer to his notes capoing at the 2nd fret in open-G tuning. C - Am - F - G chords for the opening. So maybe he is tuned down?
