What is a "banjo"?

A banjo is a stringed musical instrument with a circular body, a long neck, and typically four to five strings. It is known for its bright, resonant sound and is commonly associated with folk, bluegrass, and country music. The banjo's unique tone comes from its drum-like body, which is covered with a thin membrane. Players pluck or strum the strings with their fingers or a pick, and the instrument is often used to provide rhythm and melody in various musical genres.
