Thanks!
That was great! Loved all of those alternate licks you used on the 2nd time around. Were those yours or could I be lucky enough to find some tab somewhere? I’d love to learn this version.

Thanks! I took those from various sources haha. Some of them are Ron Block style licks that Bennett Sullivan showed on his YouTube channel, some are licks that Scott Vestal plays on this song, and I stole one of them from Katy’s Old Joe Clark solo. Trying to unlock this style of playing and I’m starting to understand how it’s constructed so I’m gonna start coming up with my own licks soon.

Nice! That’s exactly how you come up with your own style. I’ll be picking your video apart to see if I can replicate any of it. You did a great job!

Yeah, since I don’t play banjo, I was seeing what I could get from the guitar licks. Right around the 49 second point to around 54 seconds is a great lick. I don’t have a slow-down machine, but I think I got the gist of it. Probably not exact but wasn’t aiming for that. Just trying to get close to where it sounds good.
To my surprise, I’m not finding many decent tabs out there for CMB. There are several over at Banjo Hangout, but they’re terrible. I found one that sounded decent, but then loaded it up and it’s for a tenor banjo.
So, I’m setting out to make my own tab. If you happen to know if a good one that already exists, please let me know. Thanks!

Loved it! Cant resist asking though. How many tracks and what are they? Great mixing!
