>is the banjo that different from the guitar?
A bluegrass banjo has 5 strings, typically tuned gDGBD. The tuning peg for the topmost string (the little g) starts at the 5th fret and is tuned an octave higher than the other G.
Typically 22 frets. Harmonics on 12th, 7th, and 5th frets.
So yes, chord locations and shapes are different to guitar.
Bluegrass style is typically played with a plastic thumb pick and metal picks on the index and middle fingers. Ring and pinky finger are used to anchor the hand to the drum head just forward of the bridge, which is floating not glued down.
