Hi Dick,

Thanks for the link. Yours is certainly a more formal version than mine. I suspect you version is sounding more like the tune might have been done originally. Banjos from the time when Buffalo Gals was know as Lubly Fan during the Minstrel Show days were likely strung with gut. What is Spanish Tuning?

dgdgbd,if youhave been playing 5 string banjo it works very easily,some people put an octave 12 string guitar A string on the 5thinstead of the second lowest string tune it down to g,and you have a high string similiar to your short banjo string,then you can do your bum ditty andpolay all the banjo tunes on a guitar,you can also use all the other 5 string banjo tunings,and frail or up pick
