Kmise 4 String Banjo Ukulele Uke Concert 23 Inch Size Sapele With Bag Tuner

OK, I did not NEED another ukulele, most especially not a banjo ukulele. But I admit to suffering from what a friend calls "ukulele acquisition syndrome". When I read the professional reviews for this banjolele, I really wanted it. Then I found the great price on Amazon, and I was hooked.I have been playing my Kmise almost daily in the weeks since it arrived. It is as easy to play as my best ukes, and it sounds great on my folk repertoire, including, especially, the sea shanties that my uke club loves. (I must admit that I return to my regular ukes for romantic songs and many show tunes.)

Head needed to ne tightened. I put wrapped classical guitar strings on it an octave lower than typical uke. Had to modify the tail piece to accomodate the strings, but that's o.k. Great instrument, really unbelievable for the price. I really like the neck, just a narrower than regular uke.

Got this banjo 3 years ago. Never played before so didn't want to spend a lot. I have been very happy. It needed new strings and the frets had to be smoothed on the sides. It stays in tune. Sound quality is good. Quality of actual banjo is good. Plays a little flat on some frets. If you can find someone who works on banjos should be an easy fix. I am very happy. Discovered I like playing and I am upgrading This Christmas. I am still a novice but would recommend this banjo for beginners.

never had a banjolele, i have two standard ukes so i found this to be a needed change of pace.these are a little louder than trad ukes, and some songs sound better on it but others sound better with trad ukes. i love playing old timey favorites like she's coming round the mountain, ain't she sweet, Campton races and so on, cause they sound great on the banjolele. mine is a tenor.

Great instrument. Good weight and construction, and holds tune even fresh out the box. The kit comes with extra strings, picks, a tuner, and a fun little strap, and case. I took the back off to get a slightly different sound twangier sound than by default.I've always loved the bluegrass and old timey sound of traditional Irish music too, and I'm not getting any younger, so I've been working on learning ukulele and 5 string banjo. Definitely recommend for beginners looking for a different sound too.I'm happy to say that this is the first instrument I can now play a full song on without tabs or references - People are Strange by the Doors.

I purchased this banjo as ‘used-like new,’ and it was described as including a tuner, picks, strap, spare springs, and other accessories. Only the banjo, tuner, and case arrived in the package—extremely annoying! I followed amazon’s instructions in case of problems and emailed the selling company Kmise’s customer service asking for help, but they never replied.The banjo itself is of reasonably good quality and it would be hard for me to replace it in time for my needs, so I have decided not to return it. Since I didn’t receive all the promised items, though, the value of this purchase was significantly less than expected. Worst of all, the company is non-responsive about problems! I wish I could leave a good review since the banjo itself is a solid value for a beginner instrument, but because of the issues with fulfillment and customer service, I can’t recommend purchasing this banjo or any other instruments from this company.

I bought this to play in a Dixieland band that needed a banjo but was willing to settle for a banjolele. It plays pretty loud with the back on and is easy to play. The kit comes with everything you need including the strap, tuner, a pickup and tools to tighten the drum and neck. I may end up being the singer so I want it to be really loud.

It's ok for beginners who aren't familiar with musicanship. Had to return this as the sound was dead. Have purchased same brand before and have been satisfied.

Es un excelente Banjolele. Tiene un sonido muy bonito y para el precio se me hace un excelente producto.

I got this for my son to learn on. It sounds good And he loves it.

For starters this isn’t like a ukulele- it sounds like a banjo but is tuned like a ukulele. That’s why it’s called a Banjolele. This package is pretty inclusive, with a tuner and strap and a measurement tool for fitting the bridge. All these extras seem of good quality. The instrument itself is surprisingly well made for the price and plays fine to my ears. All in all there’s nothing bad to say about this Kmise Banjolele. It has become my favourite instrument and although I’m a novice I find it easier to learn songs on it than I do on my tenor Uke. If you are. Looking for a beginners instrument then this is a no brainer! 🙂

Super sound

Muy bien por el precio.
