That is, a basic income has the five following characteristics: 1  Periodic: it is paid at regular intervals (for example every month), not as a one-off grant. 2  Cash payment: it is paid in an appropriate medium of exchange, allowing those who receive it to decide what they spend it on.
The plectrum banjo is a standard banjo without the short drone string. It usually has 22 frets on the neck and a scale length of 26 to 28 inches, and was originally tuned C3 G3 B3 D4. It can also be tuned like the top four strings of a guitar, which is known as Chicago tuning..
The plectrum works well when tuned to the same notes as the first four strings of the guitar. This is handy for guitarists who want to play jazz without learning the C tuning of the standard plectrum banjo. The standard tuning for the plectrum is (from 4th to 1st string) C,G,B,D.
