How Do Banjo Players Change Their Tuning While Playing?

Something that can be confusing (and impressive) to beginners or people who don't play the banjo is the way that banjo players change their tuning in songs like Flint Hill Special or Randy Lynn Rag. The way this is done is actually pretty simple! It is done with a special type of tuners called D tuners. Watch this video for an explanation of different types of D tuners and how they work. Thanks for watching!

It's genius really, I often think about the first person to stumble across and understand music theory. How is everything lined up so perfectly, it's like it was already written and sombody just had to find it

Hey Dayle! It's been awhile. And that's true, it is crazy to think about

Great video, Mason. Wish I would have seen this when I was beginning; D-tuners always confused me back then.

Earl Scruggs came out with those teeners that you’re calling cheetah keys, and you had to drill holes in in your pig head, and then Bill Keith invented them and call them Keith Scruggs tuners I have seen some like the cheetah keys that have levers on them instead of turning them it’s a lever you work back-and-forth. I’ve been playing the banjo since 1974.

Not true, the Bill Keith tuners are the same style as the Schaller tuners I showed in this video. Cheat a keys were invented more recently comparatively speaking.

Well, those are cams on the Cheat -A-Keys. It's a much more accurate way to bend and unbend the strings because you're not initiating a geared tuner, but a levered cam. I've had both cam-style and Keith-style and I prefer the cams, and more specifically, like you, the Cheat-A-Keys. In fact, in 1965 I drilled holes in the headstock of my RB-100 to install a set of cam "Scruggs Pegs" and they worked fine, although a bit of an eyesore. I have to say, like so many things at my age, I don't care what they look like, just how they work and how stable they are.

It's the same for me... I wanted the Keith style tuners for my other banjo because I like the look better, then I got the Bowtie and I just wanted something easy to use. You get used to them being up there.

For sure. Like I said in the video it's an investment in your playing though. They're worth it if you can afford them and you're a serious player.
