Soprano Ukebanjo

The ukulele banjo was made famous by the English comedian George Formby. He made more than 20 films, all featuring his uke banjo. His most famous films are Let George Do It and Boots. Thanks to his distinctive playing, the instrument quickly spread to other musicians. 


This instrument has a 33cm scale, 12-15 frets and is most often tuned AECG or BF#DA. Thanks to this, every guitarist can start playing the uke banjo and thus expand his musical possibilities. Nylon strings are usually used on the uke banjo (the same as on the guitar ukulele). Due to the scale, the frets are relatively close together, and therefore the soprano uke banjo is recommended more for players with thinner fingers.
The pictures of the instrument you see are illustrative. Ukulele banjos can be more or less decorated, depending on your order. They can be made in either openback or resonator versions.
