  • Because there isn't anything notable enough about this intrument to warrant a mention by name. The technique used for the fifth string is mentioned in banjo, and properly credited to F.C Wilkes in the 1890's. There have been thousands of banjo makers with tens of thousands of different models. We don't list them individually.—Kww(talk) 12:19, 2 October 2009 (UTC)
