  Great

  I had the great misfortune to have my Banjo Ukulele damaged in transit, which apparently is rare, but the responsiveness of the Duke team could not have been better. A replacement was expedited to me and I'm very excited to get started. It is a beautiful instrument and the team behind it really is first class.

  DUKE10 Tenor Banjo Ukulele

  A great instrument to play.

  I had high expectations for this instrument, and was not disappointed after receiving it this week. I play tenor and baritone ukes and the scale of the Duke is a good fit for me. I quite enjoy the sound and playability of this instrument. It is a welcome addition to my uke family.

  DUKE10 Tenor Banjo Ukulele

  100 years between my banjo-ukuleles, and it keeps all of the good stuff

  I started learning ukulele a few years ago, and really enjoyed it. My parents brought me a Sandstrom banjo-ukulele that belonged to my Grandad during the 1920’s/1930’s in San Francisco. While it’s still playable, I found that the friction pegs, and old calfskin made it temperamental (you cant blame it for a 100 year old instrument) and that made it hard to really enjoy, even though I loved the sound. I’ve been thinking about a Duke 10 for a while, and recently pulled the trigger after some great conversations with Jamie (how cool is it to be able to e-mail the owner of a company directly...and he has a great name?). I think the Duke 10’s sound captures the “heart” of my grandad’s banjo-Ike, but even better. The 10” head size gives it more presence and the fret spacing fits my hand much better, not to mention the great design of the geared tuning pegs. While I’ll never get rid of my grandad’s banjo-uke, I think the Duke 10 is just what I wanted. Now they can be banjo-ukulele mates!

  Jamie, mate! What an awesome story. Loved learning about your Grandad's banjouke, and just love the photo of the two banjo ukuleles together! Thanks for putting your trust in a DUKE10, and I'm thrilled it is just what you expected.

  Great

  Although delivery to France took a little longer than wished, that was a not unexpected consequence of CV-19. The box was well and securly packaged and when I opened it everything was perfect. Within minutes I had the banjolele set up and tuned. I'm a fairly average player but now looking to build a repertoire of suitable tunes. Best wishes to all at DUKE. Conor

  Fab-u-lous

  Beautiful. Easy to set up (when I found the bridge ;-) ). Added bonus as I didn’t realise it had a pickup! Lovely to play and not too loud like other banjuleles. The details such as the strap. I wouldn’t have had a clue, and the arm shield 10/10!
