Another highly helpful video. Our fiddler does Mason's Apron as a six-part, two rounds, so I've struggled to find enough variations backing him. Different strumming patterns solved it, so thanks a million! I'm putting in som palm-muting too, so fiddler is now merrier than ever 😀

I love how his thumb is anchored. Never moves. What key is it in?
