I've taught banjo setup for over twenty years; during that time my understanding of musical instrument organology has developed considerably. In this discussion I delve more deeply into the subject than I have in previous videos, examining in detail the use and maintenance of friction pegs, tying gut strings, different types of bridges and tailpieces--their histories, strengths, and weaknesses--different approaches to banjo head material and tensioning, etc.
