A banjo produces sound from string vibration. The strings rest on a wooden bridge, which is sitting on top of a banjo head, basically the same as a drum head you would find on a snare drum for instance, but special heads are made just for the banjo. When a string is plucked, the vibration travels from the string, to the bridge, then it is transmitted to the head of the banjo, so just like an acoustic guitar, no electronic amplification is needed.

The sound of a banjo is determined by the tone ring. This is a ring of wood or other material that controls the vibrations your banjo will make, such as a hollow rhythmic sound, a melodic sound, or a sharp and bouncy sound. The latter being my favorite. Some banjos to check out would be: Huber, Gibson, Washburn, or Deering.
