Gold Tone BU-1: Concert-Scale Banjo Ukulele with Gig Bag
Exceptional Sound and Playability
Pickers can’t get enough of our banjo-ukes, and it’s easy to see why! This openback concert-scale instrument delivers vibrant, crisp tones thanks to its eight-inch maple pot topped with a genuine Remo Fiberskyn head. Whether you’re strumming around the campfire or playing on stage, the rich banjo-like sound combined with ukulele playability makes this instrument truly unique.
Built for Amplification
Unlike other banjo-ukes in its price range, this model comes equipped with a factory-installed pickup. This feature allows for effortless amplification, making it perfect for gigs, recording sessions, or any setting where you want your sound to shine through clearly and powerfully.
Quality Craftsmanship and Design
Crafted with a hard maple neck for durability and smooth playability, this banjo-uke also features a graceful vintage-style tailpiece and our patented Zero Glide nut. These design elements enhance tuning stability and intonation, so you can focus on your music without worrying about constant adjustments.
Convenience and Versatility
To top it all off, your banjo-uke comes with a padded gig bag for safe transport and easy storage. Plus, for left-handed players, there’s a dedicated left-handed model available, ensuring everyone can enjoy this fantastic instrument with comfort and ease.
