Hobgoblin Catalogue - Banjos
The Banjo developed in America from its African origins, and is now immensely popular, due to its unique sound, suitability for a wide variety of music, and because it is so easy to play. Common types include the 5 - string, the tenor with four strings, the mandolin banjo or banjolin with eight and the ever popular uke banjo with four nylon strings.	*ON THIS PAGE:* 5 STRING BANJOS TENOR BANJOS OTHER BANJOS BANJO BOOKS BANJO SPARES Banjo FAQ Page updated on: 27/08/08

5 STRING BANJOS

The 5 string banjo is used for bluegrass music, usually in the style popularised by Earl Scruggs, and players look for a resonator and heavy brass tone ring. For old time clawhammer or frailing styles a simpler open backed model is better. Finger style classical banjo also uses the 5 string (with nylon strings) but is less common now.

TENOR BANJOS

Tenor Banjos are used extensively in both Irish traditional music, and tradition al jazz. They have a shorter scale than the G banjo, and 4 strings tuned CGDA, but it is normal for Irish musicians to retune down to GDAE using thicker string s. We can supply banjos in either tuning.
