text: Indeed, the average banjoist nowadays only has a vague knowledge of what banjo playing, in the years Before Scruggs, was like; the general stereotype goes something like this: Back in the late 1800s, the banjo – an essentially rural instrument – was ripped from the hands of poor, illiterate hillbillies by evil, greedy snobs such as Samuel Swaim Stewart, who proceeded to try and make the banjo a high-class, classical instrument by re-spelling its name to “banjeau” and other such dastardly shenanigans.
