No capo. Spike the 5th string at the 7th fret. Arkansas Traveler is an intricate melody. Scruggs Style banjo playing is more about paraphrasing melodies, and using rolls, slurs while playing out of chord shapes. Try out a few licks to add variation and blend picking styles. There's a lot of interesting combinations to explore.
