'''Musical Notes''', or simply '''Notes''', are recurring collectibles in the ''[[Banjo-Kazooie (series)|Banjo-Kazooie]]'' series.


Musical Notes are golden musical notes that are usually a joined pair of quavers (eighth-notes). In ''Nuts & Bolts'', they were changed to semi-quavers (sixteenth-notes). Although their appearance is usually the same in each appearance, Musical Notes have a different purpose in each game.
==Location and uses==
Although they normally have different uses in each game, they are generally used as a type of currency.

In ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge]]'', Musical Notes have a similar purpose as in ''Banjo-Tooie'', as Banjo and Kazooie must collect Musical Notes to learn new abilities from [[Bozzeye]]. The Musical Notes are usually scattered across the world map individually, but may sometimes appear in a Note Nest. Every level still has 100 Musical Notes, including the hub world, [[Spiral Mountain]]. There are a total of 600 Musical Notes to collect.

===''Nuts & Bolts''===
In ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]'', Musical Notes are used as currency in [[Showdown Town]]. Banjo can purchase blueprints, vehicle parts, tips from [[Bottles]], or even bribe [[Pikelet]] to keep the [[Showdown Town Police]] off his case. If Banjo bribes the police too much, he cannot afford any essential collectibles, such as Jiggys.

In ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]'', Musical Notes appear in three varieties: copper, silver, and gold (respectively at a value of 1, 5, and 10 Musical Notes). They are used as currency in [[Showdown Town]], and like its previous appearances, Musical Notes are scattered around the worlds (with 200 per world, and 900 in Showdown Town itself). If Banjo collects all the Musical Notes in Showdown Town, the player unlocks the "Loose Change" [[Achievements|achievement]] (worth 20G).


Musical Notes appear in a few colors: bronze Notes are worth 1, silver Notes are worth 5, and Gold Notes are worth 10. Notes are scattered around the world individually (with 200 per world, and 900 in Showdown Town), but can also be earned from completing challenges, playing [[Jinjo Bingo]], or completing various other minor tasks. A total of 5,230 Musical Notes are featured, 120 in [[L.O.G.'s Lost Challenges]], further increasing the number to 5,350 Notes.
[[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] can use Musical Notes to buy vehicle [[blueprint]]s, tips from [[Bottles]], [[Jiggy]]s from [[Jolly Roger|Jolly Dodger]], upgrades for [[Boggy's Gym]], and even to bribe [[Pikelet]] to keep the [[Showdown Town Police]] off his case. Banjo must not bribe the the police more than once else he cannot afford essential collectibles such as Jiggys.


1,900 of the Musical Notes can be obtained through traditional means; the rest are obtained through various methods, including Challenges, [[Klungo's Arcade]], freeing [[Jinjo]]s, capturing [[Minjo]]s, and playing [[Jinjo Bingo]]. There are are a total of 5,230 Musical Notes. In the ''[[L.O.G.'s Lost Challenges]]'' DLC, there are 120 Notes, increasing the total to 5,350 Notes.
If the player has purchased every vehicle part and blueprint, they are left with a remainder of 9 Musical Notes. One of Bottles's offered hints is the [[Stop 'n' Swop#Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts|Stop 'n' Swop Truth]], at a price of 6,000 Musical Notes. However, it is impossible for Banjo and Kazooie to obtain this number of Musical Notes.
