Banjo Ukuleles

What are a banjo ukuleles?

Well as you might expect, it’s a cross between the two instruments. Like a ukulele, it’s a four-string instrument, but with construction, tone, and projection more similar to a banjo. They achieved peak popularity in the 1920s and 1930s when vaudeville actors needed an instrument with the ease of playability of a ukulele with the sound projection of a banjo.

The body is a small banjo while the neck is a fretted ukulele neck. Currently, we are carrying one banjo uke, the Deering Goodtime Concert Scale Banjo Ukulele.
