The banjo has been a popular musical instrument for over 200 years.  Likely of African origin, it uses a stiff membrane, similar to a drum head, to help vibrate and amplify the sound and give a unique tone to the banjo.  While it has traditionally been associated with American Roots and Celtic music, it has become a popular part of country as well as some forms of rock.
