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.
a twang
yes it does
the Africa area where the the sound resinatot was a gourd
Because it uses strings to produce its' sounds!
It sounds like a banjo with a higher pitch and a little more sustain.
No, toy banjo's do not produce a quality sound required for real use
a twang
yes you can
When a banjo string is plucked, it creates vibrations that travel through the air as sound waves. These sound waves are picked up by our ears, which then convert the vibrations into signals that our brain interprets as the sound of a banjo playing.
A Banjo does have a built in pickups. The pickups can be built into the frets and the body of the banjo. A pickup is used to plug the banjo into a system to amplified the sound.
yes it does
The banjo has strings which are usually plucked rather than strummed like a guitar.
Any banjo is a good banjo! Banjos are built for different purposes. I personally like the Huber banjos, but if you play claw hammer or old time, you may like a open backed handmade banjo. 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.
Standing sound waves.
