Two finger thumb lead. Banjo tuned fDGCD.

Key of A. Played on a vintage 1970's "frankenstein" banjo

Paul Perkins and me playing with guitar player Jon Duvick. I cannot recall what model of banjo Paul is playing, but it used to have a resonator on it and he removed it to play clawhammer with me at barn dances.
