(I normally take individual pictures of every ukulele, but the BU-1 consistently looks similar, so this is my stock photo. There will only be slight variations between each banjolele. I stopped offering banjoleles for awhile due to being too busy as well as customers thinking their ukulele was not set up due to me laying down the bridge for the safety of the banjo head during shipping. I will mark where you are to set up the bridge. It takes 3 seconds. But rest assured your banjolele will be set up with level frets and smooth fret ends and the head marked for bridge placement.)
Gold Tone instruments are well made, well set-up, instruments that are a great quality at a good price point! Want to get a different sound out of your uke playing? Then the Banjolele is for you! It gives you a great banjo sound, and while still using your ukulele chords and strumming knowledge.
This is an amazing offering from Gold tone! This is their affordable Banjolele model that comes stage ready with a passive pickup! It also has a gigbag. So it is everything you need for you banjolele at one affordable price! At this price point it is hands down the best banjolele deal out there! It will be set up with a nice low nut and an ideal playability.
Any questions? let me know!
