All the people here with the brilliant insight of "This doesn't sound exactly like a banjo" are missing the point -- this balloon gives your guitar a different sound and that's pretty cool. No one's expecting it to be perfect, thatd be called a Rich Man's Banjo now wouldn't it?
They’re not, they’re aware it’s not given even a sound close enough to call it a poor man’s banjo, might be the recording, might be the the amount the balloon is inflated but there’s qualities in a sound that makes a banjo sound as it does that this isn’t replicating.

@@xjunkxyrdxdog89 Gibson guitars are mediocre in comparison to other mainstream brands like Taylor or Martin. The boutique instruments are what most people obsess over these days. I don't know about their banjos, but if you pay 10k for one, youre as dumb as the day is long.
I wouldn’t say that’s a “poor man’s” banjo, but more of a “richer man’s” way of making do with a better “banjo.”
?
Despite banjos being historically cheaper, inflation, production methods and popular trends have made guitars significantly cheaper than modern banjos
@@againstthecurve that is true.

“Poor man’s banjo”

I think they mean if you can only afford either a guitar or a banjo so you have to make one function as both.
A 200 dollar guitar is not an expensive guitar
@@amritjanardhanan yes I know but $200 is still $200

Coming across this 8 years later in 2024. One of the neatest guitar hacks I've seen.
Putting different gases in the balloon could probably change the tone, too.
Expectation: Cool balloon banjo
Reality: Accidentally popping a balloon inside your guitar and trying to get the pieces of rubber out of the void

the colour of the balloon is important?
No matter ,no matter what colour..........
Red ballons give a warmer, more vintage tone
Absolutely!
@@Savak22 sound like one of those vintage guitar geeks! Love this😂
Is just like your rimin a banjo, aluminium dont looks like wood, and also gives you a good resonator
Not to get political or anything, but isn't a poor man's banjo, historically....a banjo?
I though it down to a ukulele
Yeah, that's inflation for ya (literally)
MY FATHER WAS A BANJO AND WAS AS GOOD AS ANY GUITAR
I thought it down to a string attached to a stick
At the time Gibson made some guitars at a lower price than most banjos... And poor musicians buyed those and started playing the guitar.

pov science class: today we will teach you how to see the dna of a strawberry. meanwhile actual science: today we are going to learn how to turn your guitar into a banjo!
This is like: to draw a horse, just draw a unicorn and erase the horn. If u dont have money for a banjo, just buy a guitar man
Banjos are actually expensive, they mightve used to be cheap... 100 years ago, but now they are way up there, so this Is correct, having a cheap guitar and a balloon is way cheaper than buying a whole ass banjo.
to draw a circle just draw a head and erase everything but the circle
@@SpecterNeverSpectator who would have thought, you learn something new every day
@@_Fuscous Spongebob type beat
Not really, most people will start out on a guitar, so doing this to try out playing a banjo is definitely cheaper than buying a banjo only to find out it's not for you.
Steve Martin in awe:
*All this time I didn't need to buy any*
I think Steve Martin could afford as many banjos as he’d like.
I'm going to try this on my acoustic bass... like when my life let's me...
It's going to sound like a banjo on 16rpm.
