This is the worst instrument

How about we have a banjo duel over it?

The problem with banjos is that they either are used very well or complete shit with no in between

The banjo, like many instruments, is used best when indistinguishable, but would be sorely missed.

Fuck the goddamn banjo. ruins every song it touches

No

>>73485296
I fucking hate ukuleles

>>73485296
i'd say the banjo and bagpipes break even

>>73485296
banjo is the best instrument, ukelele is the worst

>>73486530
Nice more material for the cringe threads.

>>73486663
what the fuck are you talking about? I've heard traditional bag pipe music plenty of times and it's just not pleasant to hear.

>>73486533
this

>>73486663
It has been proven that they are loud enough to be naturally harsh to listen, combine that with their obnoxious timbre and you got an objectively bad instrument.

>>73485880
Oboe literally has one of the best woodwind sounds possible. It sounds like an early version of the mellotron honestly.

>>73486513
how would that measure if it's a good instrument? It's not a traditional instrument and relatively uncommon.

>>73489572
Apparently it was a big thing in middle ages.
I blame those plastic shits schools force on us.

>>73489727
You should really blame the clarinet. Once it showed up as a more robust and versatile option, the recorder was largely tossed aside.

A good song with a banjo:

thanks doc

>>73489572
They're actually wonderful if you don't play them like a 3rd grader.

>>73486729
Only true answer. Power chords and plectra and TAB and the like are not music and music is dead because of them.

I can barely comprehend how stupid that is
