The strings on my six string banjo are very loose when tuned and unless I place a capo on forth or fifth frets it sounds dreadful,
The strings are not wound up tight enough but yet it's tuned,
I have tried different strings , even a combination of guitar and banjo strings.
Is there a way to tighten the strings so as they don't buzz without the use of a capo,
If all fails could I change my six string to a five string without too much difficulty.
