I bought David’s instructional Clawhammer DVD. Worth it’s weight in gold. He is an excellent teacher and player.

David - you mention some person playing this w/ a blues style but I can't get the name - it sounds like Barr Grey or something. can you please help? And is there a recording of his playing it that you know of? Thanks!

What tuning are you using? Thanks

[@DeeringBanjoCo]

He is using standard open G tuning (G,D,G,B,D)

Anyone know how to just print off his tabs instead of the whole lesson?
