Seems like a pretty good little instrument, especially for the price.
Color: Natural wood color
I got it today, and while I got all but the A string to tune, I popped it, restrung it, popped it again, it simply would not tune to the A. Will take it into the guitar shop to get restrung, and tuned for the first time. I actually love this little instrument, and it is going to be a lot of fun once I get her all tuned up. Minus one star for the user/player, 5 for the instrument itself. Yes, instructions that came with the pick up are in in Chinese, I supposed I'll figure it out no problem. Just wish that darned string would tune to the A. Can't wait to start my bluegrass songlist. ... show more

This sparks so much joy
Color: Red
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. ... show more

Super Fun
A solid instrument. I'm new to playing Ukulele/Banjolele so I dont have much to compare it to, but the instrument feels sturdy, has a wonderful twang, and aside from my fingers hurting it's been really fun getting to practice on. One review said something about it feeling fragile I think but that really isn't the case, all of the wood feels solid and strong. Another negative review talked about it not holding its tuning, and again, I havn't experienced that myself. My one and only complaint is that the edges of the fret board are a bit rough. Sliding my hand up and down the neck while trying to keep a solid grip has resulted in a bit of skin being rubbed off my thumb but this is after multiple hour long practice sessions. All in all, if you're a beginner or curious about what a banjolele/banjo-uke/banjo ukulele sounds like and feels like, I'd feel fine recommending this instrument. For Beginners: 4 stars solely because of the fret board being jagged. If you're new youre going to be holding it tightly and practicing longer hours and its going to rub off some skin which isnt the best but theres no issues with durability, sound, or tuning. Value: 5 Stars. While its more expensive than most concert ukes, I think its a very competitive price for a more unique sound that is rarer than the standard ukulele. Giftable: If you know someone who wants to play banjo but doesn't have the space or patience to deal with a regular sized one or if you know a uke player who wants twang this would make a great gift. 4/5 ... show more

bango
Color: Reddish Brown
Great beginer bango that i got for my husband for xmas. he has been wanting to learn and he loves this bango. he said he was researching them and this is the one he wanted. I read all reviews on so many of them and really just went by best review . I wasnt sure if 5 string or more or less strings and had to do a lot of googling since i know nothing about bangos. This was the jackpot according to my husband. thank god lol he loves it so much i had to share a review about it. he says its sturdy and plays well. everything you need to start out was there. i did read another review that suggested better strings so i did buy better strings and stuck them in with the rest of the things that came with it. and i have to say since december he has gotten good. he watches a guy on you tube that does lessons and it finally sounds like hes actually playing an actual song lol and its only been a month! and he never picked up a bango in his life! ... show more

great Banjolele & tuner.... broken softcase zipper agreed replaced free within 1/4 day of receipt.
Updated & Upgrading from 3 to 5 stars. Seller contacted within a few hours of receiving to replace bag with broken softcase zipper.. agreed to replace case free within 3 hours of my contacting them.:::: original review follows:::::: Would have gotten 5 stars if main softcase zipper didn't fall apart upon first unzipping. Banjolele itself is very good in design, sound quality and construction with only fault is that the 4 tuner knobs are a bit on the lightweight side but tuner gears are very good. Separate Tuner is nice and works well. The banjolele has good and lound sound strummed with only fingers as well. Banjolele bridge easily set up and tuned. Has side fret marker dots as well as on fretboard face. The banjolele is better in quality than price asked so, not too upset over a cheap zipper in the softcase arriving in 3 broken pieces. ... show more

Missing items, poor customer service experience
Color: Reddish Brown
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. ... show more

Properly set up this piece is a joy to pick.
Color: Reddish Brown
I ordered this piece with trepidation as I've purchased feature name banjos in the past. They sounded like rusty strings drawn over a bucket. This banjo is different. The resonator is made of a very quality hardwood with a bowl-shaped bottom. The neck is easily negotiable and most importantly when I pluck any string it is deep vibrant and melodious. It is also LOUD projecting a very clear lovely sound. If you purchase this banjo, read the instructions. Set the banjo up correctly or have a pro set it up. I was so surprised by it's sound quality I was speechless. There may be prettier banjos but I've yet to hear one with a better tone. ... show more

Unique voice
Color: Red
I’m not a uke or banjo player. I play guitar in Irish sessions and someone brought one to the session. It was loud enough to hear over the rest and it looked cool. My instrument came in good condition without a case or gig bag. I didn’t get the cool package with all that. I tuned up and started playing. It’s got a consistent tone with a unique voice. I don’t think there’s much usable neck beyond the third or fourth fret. Not much sound anyway but it seems most uke players are always using first position chords. That being said, I’m satisfied with the instrument but sorry I missed buying the package with the case, tuner and whatever else they included. ... show more
