Cowboy Waltz

Hopefully getting together with the lads this week for another jam, so I thought I'd have a go at getting my head around Carl's song 'Cowboy Waltz'. It's G/C/D in 3/4 time and previously we've played it with frailing and finger picking banjos, but it's never quite worked, so I thought this was good time to work on my fingerpicking on the banjo after making some headway picking the uke.

It's not quite all there but I'm get it!

  1. Is that the Windsor. Sounds fantastic.

  2. Yeah, it's got a lovely sound to it. Loads more sustain/resonance than the old Collins and it's nicely balanced. It seems a bit more sympathetic to finger picking. My old banjo seemed to clang alot when I was playing. Maybe I've just inproved, but the new (old) Windsor seems to have made a difference.
