  DUKE10 Tenor Banjo Ukulele

  Great Instrument, great price. I'm extremely pleased with the Duke banjolele. It is a fun instrument to play and a big hit with my fellow ukulele players. Set up was easy and I was playing shortly after opening the box. A couple of comments. The G string kept popping out of the bridge slot initially. This could have been because I strum harder than average. I took a file and deepened the slot slightly with no further issues. The neck feels bigger (deeper?) than my other ukuleles. This may affect people with smaller hands. In short, it is everything duke claims and I would recommend it to anyone.

  Thanks for your review Jeffrey, your feedback is important for us to continue improving our products and processes. Sorry that you had issues with the bridge and the string popping out. Playing in a heavier manner can cause this as you suggest, but good on you for working out a fix! I will look into it and ensure that in future the bridge has slots that are deep enough to (hopefully) avoid any further issues. May you enjoy many years of playing your DUKE10 - Jamie Houston - Owner.

  The DUKE10 - A perfect alternative to just having a ukulele. I was convinced by a friend of mine to purchase the Duke10 Banjolele. I already had a Concert Ukulele and I thought it would be nice to have another instrument to give a different sound. My word, it really gives a magic sound which suits so many of the old favorite tunes, a perfect alternative to just having a Ukulele. Do yourself a favor and get a Duke10 - it is a fabulous instrument for the price!

  My beautiful banjo uke. The DUKE10 Banjolele has a beautiful tone. I absolutely love that it is the same strings as the Uke. The size is perfect. The only thing, I wish there was a way to attach the strap properly. It was absolutely a wonderful choice for me.

  Hi Darlene, glad you love the DUKE10 so much. The strap hooks do attach to the tension rods but we agree, they are a little large, so we are working on a way to make it better. Thanks for your feedback - Jamie, Owner of Duke Banjo Ukuleles.

  DUKE10 Tenor Banjo Ukulele

  DUKE10 - Highly Recommended. I was really excited to receive my Duke10 Tenor Banjo Ukulele. It is great to play and with the electric pickup it is even better. I am very happy and would highly recommend the Duke10 to anyone considering adding a banjolele to their collection.

  DUKE10 Tenor Banjo Ukulele

  Recommend the Duke10. I particularly like the tone and the weight of the Duke10. I was looking for a tenor with an electric pickup and liked the sleek look of the Duke10. Very happy with this instrument. And great service from the moment I placed the order through to it's speedy delivery. Thank you.

  DUKE10 Tenor Banjo Ukulele

  Rocky start but very happy in the end. Sadly my Duke10 arrived with an issue that was not repairable, but Jamie responded to the problem quickly and, after I sent him some photos of the problem he had another Duke10 sent to me and it arrived in a few days. So enough about the great service and attention to my problem. The replacement Duke10 is perfect and is an incredibly fun instrument to play. The tenor size gives my fat fingers room to move on the fretboard and the armrest is comfortable. The weight balance will take some getting used to but the included strap helps. As for the sound, even my girlfriend says she likes the sound of it and she hasn't said that about my tenor. You can play it softly or beat on it and it gives you what you want. This is a great instrument for an experienced uke player to get a vastly different sound or a beginner as, like any uke, it is easy and fun to play. Thanks, Jamie for sticking with me and working everything out. I'm going to enjoy this uke for a long time.

  Hi James, your patience and understanding was appreciated as we sorted out the issue. Your DUKE10 must have, very unfortunately, slipped through the cracks, and I am so sorry for the inconvenience. Of course I am also now really glad you have ended up with a 'perfect' DUKE10 and that you are so happy with it. Enjoy! - Jamie Houston

  Great Sound. The DUKE10 sounds great, which is the most important thing, but finish and workmanship could have been better.
