Abstract: A dampener for a banjo that attenuates unwanted overtones/reverberation while preserving the all-important fundamental sound with minimal reduction in bass, treble and volume. The dampener has a cylindrical outer shell having a diameter of about two inches and a length corresponding to the inner arc of the banjo. The cylindrical outer shell is formed from a cotton poplin fabric, and the filling comprises polyester fibers.
