Inventory # 869

Photobucket 

These little banjoleles/ banjo ukes are super sweet.  Very portable and light with only a 6 inch head.  Gives it a unique vintage tone like you get form the old "The Gibson" ukuleles. Almost like hearing music out of a victrola.  I really like them.  They play super sweet.  And it will come set up well for you.  I am not fond of the strings that come on them, so I will upgrade them to Aquilas for you.  You will really like this uke.  A sweet little player at an affordable price.  Any questions? Let me know!

From the Recording King Website:

Combining everything that players love about the ukulele with the crisp sound of a banjo, the Recording King banjo ukulele (or banjolele) is a unique instrument that you'll love. The maple neck and maple rim give it a bright tone with great projection, and the coordinator rod and 10 brackets are a nod to classic banjo-style construction. With nickel hardware, nylon strings, a 6-1/4” frosted banjo head and comely satin finish, your customers will appreciate the attention to detail on this uncommon instrument.

Mass produced ukuleles come with "factory settings".  There is no time to set the uke up for the individual buyer. Often they err on the side of high-action (strings are high over the fretboard) .  I take personal time with each uke I sell.  All ukes get a nut and saddle adjustment.  They are also checked for fret buzzes, intonation problems, and other issues that can be resolved in the set-up process.  The action is lowered to an ideal and comfortable level.  You can feel the difference between a non-set up uke and a uke that has been through the "Mim Set Up Process".  I have repeat customers world-wide because I have worked hard to have the reputation that a uke from Mim is going to be "right".   The set-up process can cost a lot through your local luthier and often they do not know the specifics that go into a good uke set-up.  I only sell ukuleles, so my set-ups are custom tailored to your uke, the brand of uke you purchase, and the uke size.  If you need a uke set-up Low G, or Lefty, let me know.  I can do that for you... no charge!  I set up the uke for YOU the buyer and ukulele player!
