Английская Википедия:Banjo guitar
Banjo guitar or banjitar[1] is a six-string banjo tuned in the standard tuning of a six-string guitar (E2-A2-D3-G3-B3-E4 from lowest to highest strings). It differs from the standard five-string banjo, which features a short drone string that ends three-quarters of the way up the neck on the low side of the fretboard but is tuned highest of the strings in re-entrant tuning. The first versions of six-string banjos were introduced in the late 19th century though did not gain popularity. The concept was reintroduced in the latter part of the 20th century with modern guitar-like tuning, allowing guitarists to play with a banjo sound without having to learn all new fingerings.
