Banjo Tuner
Banjo tuning?
Can you use an Electric Guitar tuner to tune a banjo? This is the tuner that I have: http://www.andysmusiconline.com/products/yt150.html
The banjo is a 5-string, i'm not sure of the brand, but it looks similar to this one with the 5th string starting about halfway down the neck: http://www.banjo.com/shopping/shopdisplayproducts.asp?id=20&subcat=101&cat=Bishline&L2=Banjos&L3=Bluegrass&L4=Bishline
thanks!

Yes you can use that tuner
