Thanks for taking the time to do a breakdown….I’m too pissed to give it a go right now but just wanted to say thanks for uploading your vids because you do inspire and teach more then you probably know 👌👏👏👏👏🤝
I believe that chord you were asking about at the end is an Ab chord- or if you include the G in the drone string, an Abmaj7 chord. Notes are Ab, Eb, C. You’re playing it here with the Eb on bottom, so technically it’d be the Abmaj7 over Eb inversion. (Abmaj7/Eb)
@@cerddoriaethfynyddig Yeah, honestly I almost always have to tune down to properly sing, the various "standard" tunings on banjo don't typically suit my voice very well. In the key of Cm (for that standard tuning range), that Ab chord is the VI chord in the key. All the notes are diatonic to Cm, even the G that makes it an Abmaj7 chord. So that's what you're playing in the minor key here, the VImaj7 chord. If you're tuning down a whole step, the chord would be a Gbmaj7, 2 whole steps, it'd be an Emaj7, and so on.
Really cool tuning, especially cuz u dont have to mess with ur banjo too much when u always play in double C . I have two banjos now, one for Open G tuning and one for Open C cuz tuning back and forth between those on my banjo wasnt making my banjo very happy
Beautiful sounding banjo too
Yes, it's an old tubaphone pot (1920s) with a new 5 string neck built here in the UK. Thanks again!
This song reached out and grabbed me like never before.
Blessings 🙏😃☮️
Thanks Brian. It's a lovely old tune.

Thanks! Glad you like what I do. Hope you do give it a go.
Thankyou so much for this. Beautiful key . A great example of how less can be more sometimes !
Agreed! Thanks for the comment, glad you liked it.
Nice spare syncopation in that technique. Like the uppicking pattern too
I used to do the up-picking better, just lost the pattern in my fingers......
@@cerddoriaethfynyddig That sort of things goes away quick when you don't stick with it, eh?
Yes. Use it or lose it! I make myself play my tenor though. I like to keep that ticking along.
Thank you, Andy. This will be tomorrow's project.
That's great, thanks John.
Thanks for this! Great rendition!
Thanks Chad!

Thanks Adam. This tuning does lots for me, I tune it down a bit to sing, but it's really nice. Thanks for the comment!

@@cerddoriaethfynyddig me , I did a community post on my channel asking people to sub to you
Thanks, I really appreciate it! I had a notification too. What does your channel do? I had a look but still I'm not really sure....

Double C mot open C
That's a good plan! There are lots of tunings!
Now, Open C minor "tuning" means that when u strum without fretting its an open C minor chord right? Never clicked with me until now haha
Yes, that's what it means!
