The Banjo (Guitars) icon draws a guitar at a believable footprint instead of a placeholder box. On a stage plot it marks a player position and the signal path that comes with it, which is what lets a venue crew read the plan in a single pass.
Place it, rotate it, and give it a label that matches the language your crew already uses. The export keeps all of it.
Stage position is the thing that gets argued about at load in, so it is worth drawing accurately. Guitar positions sit downstage of the backline they use, angled in toward the drummer so the player can hold time by eye as well as by ear. If the room forces a compromise, move the icon and export again. A fresh PDF is cheap; an argument at load in is not.
One thing worth writing down. State whether guitars run through amps or straight to a DI. That single line decides roughly half the channel list.
Banjo (Guitars) produces one channel on the input list, defaulting to a DI input, no stand and phantom power off. It sorts at position 4 in the drums first, vocals last channel order that front of house engineers expect. Change any of it per plot; the default just means you rarely have to.
The input list behind the plot exports as a Behringer X32 or Midas M32 scene file, a Behringer Wing scene, or CSV channel names for Allen and Heath dLive, Avantis, and SQ, DiGiCo, and Yamaha CL and QL desks. See the console guides.
