Kendall, I am familiar with Grandpa Jones' banjo playing but I don't know what you are driving at. At this point all I can give you is a generic answer to your question. When it comes to clawhammer/frailing there are as many banjo styles as there are banjo players. Every old time banjo player of the caliber of Grandpa Jones is unique. Further complicating things is the fact that there are no "standard" instruments for old time banjo. As Bonnie has learned, the variety of banjos and sounds available to old time banjo players can be bewildering. This also contributes to the uniqueness of the sound of any old time banjo player.
