Hello everyone! Im new to this banjo-thing, and i know that doesn’t sit well with this request but i really like zach tops version of showboat gambler and i would love to have it as a goal to learn how to play it. I’ve tried to use the search function but i cant seem to find a thread about it. I’d be super thankful if anyone could provide me with the tabs!Regards from sweden!

Check out this thread. I don't know if it's the exact same thing, but the melody and chords should be the same and it does have a hand-written tab for you to try out.

Yeah Sherry i tabbed a live version of JD Crowe doing it. I liked that one because it has 2 full banjo breaks.
Zachs version is a bit faster and really drives .the poster can let me know if he still wants tab to zachs version.

Ill try to get it to you by weekend may be today if i have time

FYI...the verse chords are the same as the verse chords for how mountain girls can love. So the verse breaks can be swapped. 2 for 1!, and thats how its done!

Emil give me ypur email address and i can send in in an attachment to you.
Its a super fast break(s) and that up the neck one is tricky and if its tpo hard you can always modify to suit you. Im not guaranteeing that its exactly how he does it but its certainly close
