Banjitars!

 This is a fun video because Ben Smith can PLAY that thing! The Ortega Raven is an attractive instrument with its black and chrome highlights. Smith plays some quasi-bluegrass, sure to offend banjo purists and delight everyone else, as well as some cool ragtime and blues.

 This piece uses a 6-string banjo with a more traditional modal tuning (aAEADE) tuning, with a drone string on the top. Beautiful!

 12-string guitar is doubled by 6-string banjo on this track. This sounds huge and a 12-string banjo adds sparkle to the big middle section.

 This is a nice number, played with a soft touch and a gentle, sweet tone. Enjoy!

 This is a useful lesson from Brad Davis. I love the sound of his Deering banjitar! Maybe someday Deering will want to sponsor me or want me as an endorser! (I can always dream!)

 You can buy more expensive, fancier instruments, but for sheer volume and “sheets of sound,” nothing tops a 12-string banjitar!

This is a nice tune that features banjitar prominently. My favorite role for the banjitar is supporting guitar and vocals. This song has a nice solo in the middle.
