Why do a guitar and banjo have different sounds?

The difference is in the construction methods. An acoustic guitar is a neck and strings attached to a big, tightly sealed, rigidly braced wooden box. It's designed and refined to resonate and allow the strings to have a warm sound with lots of sustain. A banjo on the other hand is a neck and strings attached to what is basically a drum with a paper head tightly stretched with tuning keys similar to those found on drums. The size and construction are designed to give a bright sound with very little sustain. The tuning of the banjo is very different too, especially on 5-string versions typically used in bluegrass music. Scruggs style players play fast syncopated runs with alternate tunings, using metal fingerpicks and a "banjo roll" plucking style. This style is not really suitable to the sound of an acoustic guitar, but with the modern electric guitar players like Chet Atkins, Jerry Donahue, Brad Paisley, and many others have forged a hybrid picking style borrowing elements from both guitar and banjo.

Lyrics of linkin park somewhere you belong?

Both Mike an Chester wrote the lyrics. Chester used acoustic guitar for the background music, but it sounded too much like folk music. So, Mike reversed the recording of he guitar, cut it up into four pieces, then put it back in order. This gave off this sort of sweeping effect to the music you hear in the intro of he song.


What instrument family does violin belong to?

It certainly is. They are both in the string family and the cellos,and the basses are too they are all related. They are certainly not. Violins are from the viola Family, meaning little viola, and the guitar is from the lute family, named after an english medieval expression for women of easy virtue. Just because they have strings it doesn't mean they are from the same family.
