    • Wonderful "plunky" sound & quality at a great price

Wow, I really like this banjolele. It is actually my second banjolele. I have been a fan of ukuleles made by Donner for about 15 months now (I have owned and played 4 of them, and all of them were just amazing values for price and great quality), so when I began wishing for a banjolele, I was really hoping that Donner would have one available. After months of waiting and hoping, and both my husband and I doing some research, he gave me a banjolele from another company for Christmas. Just letting you know that for point of reference. It is not from a famous brand, but it is one of a few that we had narrowed down to from research over affordable options, and the company which made it seemed very similar to Donner, which had been so good to me thus far, so…we took a chance. And that banjolele is wonderful. Again—just sharing for point of reference for this detailed review. I was so excited to hear that Donner now had a banjolele available, so I immediately took the opportunity to purchase one and try it out! And how fun that I could now compare as well. The Donner banjolele has a wonderful “plunky” sound, as a banjo should. The drum head has the Remo logo on it, which is one of my qualifications for what I desire in a banjolele, though the skin is a flat white matte, which was surprising to me, as my other banjolele has a Remo skin that has that sort of mottled look to it. Honestly, I don’t notice a difference other than appearance in that respect. This banjolele set comes with a decent gig bag: sturdy material, some padding (so-to-speak, so it is not one of those thin gig bags that feels like a windbreaker jacket), but not quite as awesome as some of the gig bags that came with some of my Donner traditional ukes. I wouldn’t mind a more spacious pocket. It comes with the Donner tuner as all Donner ukes do, which is my favorite tuner. I received another tuner with another brand of uke, and it has been less than pleasing…so glad that I have the occasion to know the difference! The set also comes with an extra pair of strings (but they are not labeled as to which one is which?), picks, a truss rod, and a strap---however the strap might be meant for a guitar or regular sized banjo. It is too long for me even when tightened all of the way. Decent quality, just doesn’t serve my purposes. Granted, I am a petite 5’1’’, but with all of my other ukes, the straps that come with them have been fine. Also, just so you know, one needs to have 2 small strings or ribbons in order to connect the strap to the banjolele (by looping them through the holes at the end of the strap). It’s not an exciting strap, either. Black canvas with fake brown suede/leather ends, but for the right person, it will do the trick, and honestly some of the straps that come with other instruments, ones with crazy patterns- they probably don’t please everyone either. I have been known to buy a particular strap for a particular instrument just because I wanted it to be more “me”. What the set lacked in my case was the special tool for measuring where to set up the bridge, or alternatively, instructions for how to measure without that special see-thru tool that one usually sees with these types of banjolele sets. I found out later that there *should* have been a tool included. Luckily, I had one from my other banjolele, and though they have slightly different lengths of neck/fretboard, etc, when I double-checked using the manual measurement method, it actually came out the same. Interesting. As for comparison, the Donner banjolele drum is about ¼ inch deeper than my other banjolele, and the neck is slightly thicker. I was surprised at this and wondered if it would make it more difficult to play…but actually, the Donner Banjolele is quite comfortable to play! My other banjolele has a slightly brighter sound than the Donner Banjolele, but saying the Donner has a darker sound does not seem accurate…perhaps a bit richer or deeper… The neck and body of the Donner banjolele are a beautiful red wood look, smooth to the touch. I wouldn’t mind a little more texture there for the feel of wood. The Black headstock is actually quite classy looking- I was not sure if I would like that or not, as my other banjolele looks a bit more rustic, but it turns out pleasing to me. I am not sure if the Donner name on the headstock is a sticker or paint. I might have expected something that was etched or punched in, like other products from Donner that I have experienced, but like I said, it is still lovely, and thus far, every Donner product that I have purchased, from ukuleles to other music accessories, has been a home run. So, I am going to give them the benefit of the doubt. I have had my banjolele for about a month now. As can be expected with any new uke (but it not always the case), the banjolele went out of tune pretty quickly in the first week or so, like literally within minutes of playing. However, recently I have realized that it has been holding tune through a 15 to 30 minute practice session, which is also what one could certainly hope for and expect from playing an instrument regularly once the strings settle down. (fyi, my first ever uke was a Donner, and it held tune well from the beginning...I was spoiled! 😉) All in all, another great instrument by Donner, at an affordable price. Super value with great quality. ... show more

    • My grandson likes it
Size: Concert Size
Edit Jan 28, 2024: This is a beautiful instrument but a few days after receiving it my grandson explained to me why this wasn't a real banjo. Primarily, the sound is similar to his ukulele and it has fewer strings than a traditional banjo. He plays several stringed instruments and he's very serious about them. His mom bought him a full-sized banjo a few days after Christmas. We returned the banjolele on January 17. Original review: My grandson loves learning to play new instruments. He already had a Ukulele so I was concerned that a banjo ukulele (banjolele) might not be unique enough. He opened the box and immediately started searching for tutorials on YouTube. He was able to play basic tunes not long afterwards. Yay! He likes it. ... show more

    • A quality instrument for a great price
Size: Concert Size
This is my second Donner ukulele. I bought a traditional Tenor uke from Donner in 2020 and I liked it so much that I decided to go with Donner again for my banjo ukulele. The craftsmanship is really good, and the Remo head and Aquila strings were a nice surprise at this price level. There was a problem with one of the tuning keys on the one I received initially, and a replacement was sent the day after I let them know - I received the replacement in three days. The sound is good, the looks are excellent, and it was very playable as soon as I tuned it. If it's anything like the other Donner I have, I will enjoy this for a long time to come. Well worth the price I paid for it, and I would recommend this to a friend. ... show more

    • Give it a try if you need a good banjo at an affordable cost.

Pretty nice banjo! It looks fantastic, the hardware and setup seem pretty good. It comes without the bridge installed so you need to either take to a professional for installation, or if confident you can find tutorials online (what I did). After setting up the bridge, I set to tuning it. You’ll need to use the included tool to tighten up the tuning machines, as it wouldn’t stay in tune at first. The short 5th string is particularly susceptible to going out of tune. I’m a novice on banjo, so it could just be me. All in all, a good instrument - I’ll have to wait and see if it stays in tune better over time. Most instruments require time for the strings to stretch a bit and to adjust to climate of where you’re using it. It’s a fun way to get into a new genre. I can’t comment if it’s good for experts, but as an entry-level banjo it’s a great option. Comes with a bunch of accessories, including a very nice case and strap. I would have liked some finger picks instead of the pack of flat picks, but I plan to pick up on my own. Give it a try if you need a good banjo at an affordable cost. ... show more

    • Great instrument, be ready to learn
Size: Concert Size
Overall this is a good value for your money as a learning instrument. After some time with it, I find myself enjoying the experience of practicing. I will just pick it up when I have time and relax. The banjolele itself is made well enough. It doesn't feel like a toy. When I first got it, I found it didn't stay in tune very well but after some tightening up with a screw driver it does keep tune better. It doesn't come with instructions so you will need a little bit of logic to get the thing fully together and solid. I still haven't found out how to use the strap it came with but that is not a problem as I feel it is unneeded for my play style. The tuner didn't really help me and I found a mobile app (Guitar Tuna) to be immensely more helpful when I first tuned the instrument. It is meant to be tuned as a ukulele. YouTube is your best freind. I fell in love with this little thing and learning a new instrument again has been fun. I am happy with my purchase. ... show more

    • Nice beginner banjo but has problems

Received banjo & everything looks great. When I tried tuning it, I noticed 3 of the tuning keys were loose. During closer inspection, one mounting screw in each of the loose ones are stripped out. It’s not a deal breaker, as I can fix the problem myself, but I don’t think I should have to being it’s brand new. ... show more
