For enthusiasts of early banjo

G. Swaine Buckley tune, in the Buckley 1860 book. Played here on my no-name diminutive 24" scale banjo.

Nice job. I like it on that instrument. It sure is a twisty turny one.

Thanks.  Yeah this banjo really gives it a different flavor.

Would tuning that1/2 step lower just make it too loose?

Hey, not bad at all -- makes it sound better!
