Banjo

A fretted five-stringed instrument having a narrow neck and a hollow circular body with a stretched diaphragm of vellum upon which the bridge rests. Brought to America during the slave trade from West Africa, where it was called a bania, the banjo is used as both a rhythm and a solo instrument in Dixieland jazz and country music. [Akin to Jamaican English banja]
