Old yeller dog in double C & open G tuning and a banjo shop update 

Love that maple. Gorgeous.

As a collector of old yellow dogs, I have to say I prefer the open G. Kaia, my oldest dog, agrees and she thumps her old yellow tail like a big hairy metronome.

Thank you for the music.

With the G tuning, I hear the dog yelling, with the double C I hear the dog singing

This tune is the American version of a Scottish tune in the 1600’s called Back O’ Bennachie. Bennachie is a mountain in Aberdeenshire. It’s a bagpipe tune and a Celtic folk song ( the song by the Old Blind Dogs is a great rendition).

Oh My, that Bumble Bee is amazing! Wish I could afford all of the prettiness. I really am enjoying my black pot, walnut Sylamore. It sounds really impressive.

Liked it in open G. I love the headstock inlay of the bee and flower! Perfect for me as I’m a beekeeper!

Double C for the win.

Opening g 😊

Double C for me every time. Loved the shop update. That torrified maple is wonderful.

Very nice looking pieces of wood! Thanks for sharing.

I think I prefer the second tuning. Both sound great, but the latter reminds me more of a Morgan Sexton sound… which I happen to be really digging at the moment. Awesome looking banjos though.

Your Banjos always looks fantastic, and your playing has always inspired me. i have learnt so much from watching your videos... 10 out of 10. Thanks man

I like it in the Double C tuning. I like the more open and slightly mellower sound. I just came across your youtube channel yesterday. So happy I've found it. I'll sign up for your lessons. Also, commenting on some of these videos to help with the algorithm. 😉 And I used to live in Harrison, so not far from your neck of the woods.

Beautiful work!

Your playing seems effortless. I love the sound of your banjos. No metallic clang

As always, your playing (and your banjos) is perfect and precice. Think I vote for the open G but both work well.

Both versions sound great, but I like the C tuning more.

It’s nice all slow sweet and soft like that. I play it much faster and rowdier

do you hand turn your segmented pots on a lathe ,i see in the background

Where could I buy well figured exotic ebony (like you show here) fretboard and head plate blanks, thank you.. Ron in WA.

Double C🙂

Any truss rods in ur necks?
