The most common banjo type is a 5 string banjo and has a standard tuning in open G - the notes from the 5th string to the 1st are G, D, G, B, D. This is referred to as "Open G" Tuning because the banjo is tuned to an open G chord, meaning that if you strum the banjo without fingering any of the strings on the neck you will be playing a G chord. The clip-on tuner in the pack will help you with the tuning.
The upper part of the banjo is shaped like a guitar, and the lower part is shaped like a tambourine. It has four or five strings and it can be played with finger or a plectrum.
According to legend, banjo originates in West Africa. In the era of slave trade in the 17th century, the slaves introduced it into America. Later, banjo came from the southern plantations gradually to the northern states of the United States and became popular.
