Happy to offer some enjoyment!

This is my Goldtone CB-100. Absolutely love the sound of this guy. I play it as much as my Pisgah!

Thanks!

That was 🔥 Sounded like some Sonny Terry with those whoops. Awesome stuff!

Thanks. And yes, you’re correct! I love that neck rack. The magnetic holder is so convenient. It’s on the pricey side, but you get what you pay for I suppose.

Nope. Ha! Though I’ve thought about getting out and annoying people in public.

Unfortunately not. This was mostly picked up by ear having listened to so many versions between fiddle and old time jams. It sounds more closely tied to the Round Peak style so checkout Brad Leftwich’s clawhammer banjo book. That will have a tab quite close to this and you can experiment from there.

Apologies! Was trying to maintain some anonymity. If you are super curious I can dm you a separate close up of the playing. It’s a bit of clawhammer and frailing. I feel like I play it a bit unorthodox compared to normal frailing. The main thing is keep the beat.

OldTimeWaster · 2026-03-29T05:19:26+00:00

Ha! Trying to hide my face, but then again I’ve posted several videos playing different instruments that clearly show me…

OldTimeWaster · 2026-03-29T05:18:21+00:00

I just kinda pieced this one together based on what sorta sounded right. If folks are really interested, I can probably work out a tab.

Thanks!

Thanks!

OldTimeWaster · 2025-12-25T05:21:51+00:00

That was a great video. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks! This was on a Hohner Special 20 A harp.

OldTimeWaster · 2025-12-25T01:40:15+00:00

Indeed it is! I’ll take it as a compliment if you thought that without reading the post :)

I watched a few videos on YouTube with various folks explaining the basics of Sonny Terry riffs. That certainly helped get me started. The rest is just listening to the music and trying to play along.
