That sounds like that clawhammer banjo style like in the old "You can take Salem out of the country but...", ad.
I'd like to hear you on a Tapper

Yeah, I've thought about something like that. Would love to mess with one someday.

Pretty credible plectrum/tenor banjo imitation! Cool.

Absolutely awesome! Great playing — and your intonation is much better than mine with or without a bar…
