Banjolele (Banjo Ukulele)

The Banjolele is now shipping with GEARED TUNERS!!  New pictures are on the way...

Combining quality uke craftsmanship with a banjo body, the Banjolele achieves more volume while keeping that distinctive uke sound.

Our openback model is an affordable alternative for uke players desiring loud volume and the banjo uke tone.  For players wanting to increase volume and tone, the resonator, flange, and brackets may be added at a later time. The Banjolele Deluxe is a replica of one of the most famous banjo ukes ever made. A one-piece flange and resonator creates excellent volume and tone and is a great alternative instrument for uke players as it produces superior volume.  It’s design incorporates an arch top which lends itself to banjo uke techniques made famous by George Formby.

What could be more fun than my Gold Tone Banjolele? It is loud and sweet, and with its wide ebony fingerboard complete with simple, but elegant pearl inlays it is the best value anywhere if you want the sparkling sounds of tropical island breezes.
