My Most Popular Banjo Song, Electrified!
Vložit
- čas přidán 23. 04. 2024
- The electric banjo is back! I think I need to do some tinkering with it to get a better sound, but it's kinda cool as is. Also, of course this isn't MY song, it's a folk tune that no one owns, but its my version of it, I suppose. Sugar hill is such a neat tune. I play it in C tuning.
Like I said in the video, one of these days I want to get an electric guitar and string it like a banjo, and thus unlock a whole new range of sounds! I'll get around to doing that one of these days. I also want to try getting some fx pedals to plug into this guy.
Here's my original sugar hill video: • Sugar hill - clawhamme...

Great, now I want a whole 50 minute black metal album featuring a bunch of tremolo picking banjos! No such thing as too much fuzz lmao
You beat me to a request but I am lobbying for hour long upbeat Space Banjo. Good luck!
Steel Woods Straw in the Wind would be good on this banjo
🤘
All I want is an electric banjo version of War Pigs. Is that too much to ask?
@@dkmiller8420 I can get behind that.
Old school guy here, I much prefer the acoustic banjo sound but I really like the frailing version of sugar hill!
She doesn't have to pluck on the strings so hard with amplification, like the difference between brass strings and nylon strings to save "I've got blisters on my fingers" Helter Skelter.
Believe me, over a certain volume your banjo becomes a guitar ...hardest thing to amplify a banjo...mikes are always the best way. This girls a born entertainer.
Super cool. Never would've thought electric banjo was a thing.
Wait till you hear electric zither
Look up Bela fleck and the fleck tones
This is such a good channel. It's like how CZcams used to be in the early 2010s!
No politics, no divisional social rhetoric -- just someone sharing their art and all us viewers watching someone in the zone.
Interesting sound - part banjo, part Dobro, part sitar. It's fun that you're willing to experiment.
Yes! I like the resonator sound.
You'll need that when you get so popular that you'll be playing to audiences of 40 thousand. Keep working on it. :-)
"And I knew her when she was a Young Doctor. And now, look at here!" *sniff*
I have a six string banjo that I electrified. I turn up the reverb on the amp and play surf music. I, too, put a string of lights inside the resonator.
It's refreshing to hear a young person playing Old Timey Music.
Backlit, electrified banjo. As a drummer, this is awesome.
I have a full pedalboard here and electrified my GFs banjo and a 15w amp, it's pretty fun!
For what it's worth, just sticking a piezo on like that is always going to sound a bit bad going into an amp, you really need something to match impedances, like an acoustic preamp. Valeton Dapper Acoustic Mini Guitar Multi Effects Pedal is what we use. You also run into feedback issues with a bigger amp.
Rather than using a guitar strung like a banjo (not sure that would even work) you could get a "single coil sized humbucker" which often have a single strip instead of a polepiece for each string and experiment with different locations between the neck and bridge and maybe even under the head.
Electric Wednesday to go with Fretless Friday I like it. Thanks for the tune.
Hey... what a great idea!!!
That particular amp has a megaphone quality that might be useful as an effect sometimes, but as a general rule, I personally just like the mic.
Good job playing
Glad you are willing to try new things! Glad that banjos are not electric. 😂😂
That was an electrifying experience! 😂
It's just fun watching you try different things, Phoebe. Makes me smile.
I second that!👍🏼
Dr. Phoebe bringing some intense Electro-Banjo Therapy! What a great jump start for my evening!!! Much love and God's blessings to you, Doc! ♥♥♥♥♥

Sugar Hill is indeed how I found your channel! Great song, and I am always interested to hear different ways of playing it.
Well that was interesting. I noticed your wall of banjos is growing and looking great with the panjo slotted in and your Vangoa banjo is not really bad and it's nice to have at least one resonator banjo. A lot of the old clawhammer greats played resonator banjos. Always good to watch what new thing your going to try next. Love the suspense. Frail on.
What, no Death Metal distortion? 😮 hehehe that was beautiful Phoebe!
@Phoebe Sanders: Electronic musician here. I think it’s pretty cool to experiment with pedals as well. Have a look at the Zoom CDR70. It’s a fun little pedal that has a lot of versatility. You can also load patches into it with a computer. Yeah, a Crybaby Wah would sound pretty interesting on the Banjo 😮 Liked the video! Interesting sound as well 😊
Now you need to play "I Saw The Light" with that lit up banjer!
Love it kid...your videos make my day.!!! Much love to you and your family. ❤😎✌
There are like 5,000 plug-ins in the computer world for guitarists trying to get that fuzzy, over-driven, crappy 3 inch speaker amp sound you achieved today. Me, I prefer old school acoustic banjo. That is a nice little tune.
That was so cool!!! I was just watching your hands, you're so good!
Very cool! Discovered your channel recently, big fan of fretless friday! Keep up the good work :)
I quite like the lo-fi feel - sounds a bit like a shellac disc played on a wind-up gramophone.
That’s great Phoebe! Love the lighted banjo! Fun!
Very cool, and I love the light! Makes it look like “Money For Nothing”
To get a "metal" distort sound without an amp, I wedge a metal clip bridge mute under the strings just behind the mute. It creates an amazing buzz.
That little amp is givin' its all!
Its fun to experiment with all kinds of gadgets, but there is nothing like the acoustic qualities of the banjo, especially in your capable hands.
A wah pedal would be fun. This is fun.
Loved it ' that overdriven sound will cut through a layered mix. Great idea with the E guitar, think Telecaster would be a great place to start ' but keep up that Banjo pickin' you are wonderfully unique '
It's MY Moonpie and I want it NOW! (Cool video)
A banjo that lights up is really cool! Keep it up Phoebe, regards from Brasil
Pretty cool. I do like open back and the haunting sound.
In the back, I see a resonator stuffed with cloth to make more of a thud. I used to do that until Cliff suggested nylon strings. I switched to them and it has that great "old timey" sound.
I never got over Bob Dylan or Bruce Cockburn going electric….
Phoebe, please, NOOOOOOOO!!!
Phoebe, it sounds great whichever way the sound is produced. The pickup gives a fuller sound so the softer notes are more easily heard. It gives you more scope to play with other instruments in an ensemble situation. I feel that an electric guitar would be a huge challenge to get close to the sound of a banjo but there is nothing stopping you from trying. I have an electric 4 string cigar box guitar tuned D,G,B,E so I can play guitar chords on it but it doesn't sound even close to a banjo.
Well, that was a wild ride. I've been watching your chanel for a while now. You've become the banjo friend that I never had.
Electrifying.
The electric banjo - full of possibilities. You ought to check out Kyle Tuttle, the banjo player with Molly Tuttle (not related). He uses pedals and effects some times - cool sounds.
Always fun. Thank you from Seattle.
Please Phoebe more experimentations!... Cordial greetings from Madrid-Spain!...
I loved the acoustic sound, but it sounded tinny to me when the amp was turned on... your electric guitar and with decent amp and plugging your banjo into that setup, sounds a good idea in more ways than one. Thank you for the 'daily dose'... it's almost Fretless Friday time! (Well for me in OZ as it's Thursday.)
Molly Tuttle had a video about "clawhammer guitar" her song "take the journey" uses it. You might find it neat.
Love the "without" amp. But both were well played.
Fun experiment! I like the plain banjo best. Keep up the great playing!
Nice! I enjoyed it. Also, I've never heard of an electric banjo, so that was cool too.
It's cool how electric banjo still has banjo timbre. The resonator might be part of it (Buddy Bill plays a National Resonator guitar).
And the light... I'm already trying to figure out how to get a light inside my Taylor!
I'm not a gearhead but I assume there some people who use effects pedals or amp patches to make different tones. Nifty!
I enjoy listening to the music you create
Rock on, Phoebe. Delightfully awesome!
Fun! But maybe a skosh “too avant-garde😂”, as you say, because of amp distortion. I love all your new banjo ideas so keep ‘em coming.🥰
And BTW…love your shirt! Its mélange of colors and shapes has an almost tactile feel to it. Very “avant-garde”! See you on “Fretless Friday”!!
This is so cool 😂the electric was weird but in a good cool way😮 it resonates like crazy adding a peddle would be really interesting ❤❤
LOL your hard work and practice is what blew your channel up.
This was very innovative, and I love the lights on the banjo. I love that mic too. Can't wait to see what you bring us tomorrow!!!!
Pretty cool! Love the backlight.
Pretty cool Phoebe, my nephew plays 5 string as do I. I play an old Flatiron. My nephew recently bought a banjocaster. Pretty cool
Very cool! I love that it glows!
I really want to hear it through a wah, and other pedals 🙂
Thank you for the fun video!
2:40 That's approximately how that type of filter was invented. But you probably already know that.
Sounds lo-fi great, could use even more distortion and of course fx pedals (delay, chorus, wah, ...). I love your experiments!
Concerning your future plans: You would need to somehow combine an electric drum pad with an electric guitar to create the next generation electric banjo...
Te felicito por ampliar el horizonte musical , experimentar trae sorpresas sin perder la esencia. Bravoooo 🪕🎶👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Hi Phoebe, I enjoyed this very much...thanks!
Kieth Richards plays 5-string guitar, tuned like a banjo
Where oh where did you find the Moonpie banjo head???😊 That's just too cool!
Ozma brought me to this channel but it is right now my favorite here on youtube. You bring so much joy.
Quite interesting. Looking forward to added effects :)
Thank you again, nice banjo lady
makes me wanna find the most deafeningly resonant spring i can find at the scrap yard and make it a canjo
I'm a fan & a sub. Why wouldn't EVERYONE want to get as close to a 'Scruggs' style as humanly possible as Earl IS hall of fame to say the LEAST. All spoken from a guy that plays no instrument, but if you'll forgive my true curiosity & boldness to ask?
I believe that you and Dan Gryder ( Probable Cause ), would get along great.
I would loose the light thing , when you are that close to the camera - it created a lot of glair in the center of your setup. I do like what you do with music!
Looks like scammers have grabbed your channel. I got message for urgent reply to your channel. This seams to be one of their stepping stones.
You could try putting a single string pickup on the top string and running it through an octaver to get some lower bass notes to put through dustortion. Then send the regular mix through a delay or shimmer verb. Would sound great :)
heck ya! that is way cool!
Yep, I dig it! I agree, a bigger amp, a wa pedal and reverb.
Sounds good
Wah Wah that thing...
It’s great to experiment with new ways to play.
I found the amplified sound a bit off-putting, though.
Rock On!
That electric banjo really sings
Very cool !
Thanks beautiful
Very nice
Another fun video.
She needs a banjo with a Whammy Bar
I recently got a banjolele and have thought about making it electric.
Love it
Really cool!
That was sweet. Thank you for sharing your talent with us.
Отличное шоу! Браво! :-)
Но, это и отличный урок, - о том, как по-разному может звучать одна и та же пьеса. :-)
You're so good! I love claw hammer banjo. My favourite style. And also, do you know Skating on the Harbourfront by Chris Coole?
Great job. Tell us more about tuning and claw hammer style techniques. I thought I was pretty good at finger picking guitar. A friend had a banjo that he handed me. WOW totally different animal. Where are the dogs and chickens today?
Need a heavy metal distortion pedal now 😁
Interesting! I personally don't think that type of distortion or ' fuzz' suits the banjo but there are many other types out there. Maybe try using a multi effects pedal which has a range of different distortion types and other effects including Wah wah. Oh to be young again...But keep it up it's great!
here is the deal: all banjos on video are electric. I bet live and in person the electric deal is pretty cool, but you know... I love your work, Blaine Dunlap
yeehaw! this was absolutely electric!
The girl I left behind. John Hartford.
Would love to hear some phase or flange on the electric banjo.
Sick
