It worth as much as some one is willing to pay for it. I have two, I paid $100 for one and $60 for a Highly modified one. Americans just don't know what to do with them so they try and make Guitars out of them. Both were modified.
You can buy a brand new unmolested one for about $250 from a warehouse in LA.
They were not meant to be expensive. They were meant to be a Turkish folk instrument for the everyday citizen but now days mostly Gypsies play them.
There are only about 3000 made a year but that doesn't mean they go for big bucks. Very few know what to do with it in America and consider it more of a novelty item.
How much is my old 5 string banjo worth
I saw one in a music shop, that I think is a little over priced in general, today for $275 no case included. It was a Bruno 4 sting banjo problably from the fifties or sixties.
yes, very much because of the tuning. still if you learnt one the second would be easier A banjo has 4 string were as a guitar has 6 string and some can have more. also they sound different a banjo sound kinda folky and a guitar sounds happier. They are also tuned in different ways
i just bought one 3 days ago. a pro II model with vine inlay and hard shell case, for $600.00
$350

The range of the banjo is quite big. It starts an octave below middle C, on the C string. On the A string it can go up to the G three octaves above middle C.
How long is a piece of string.

I'm not sure about his six string but I read somewhere that his carl Thompson 4 string was worth around 15 000
