Gourd head banjo, ca. 1859. Creator: Unknown.

This gourd banjo illustrates an earlier style of banjo played by African Americans who used local sources to create their instruments. When in use it would have had a piece of skin stretched across its opening and four strings running from the tuning pegs to the metal tailpiece still attached.
