Gold Tone Banjolele Concert Banjo-Ukulele

Gold Tone Banjolele: Concert-Scale Banjo-Ukulele with Gig Bag

The Gold Tone Banjolele is a beautiful fusion of two beloved worlds — the ukulele’s melodic sweetness and the banjo’s bright projection. This model was Gold Tone’s very first banjo-uke, crafted for musicians who want vintage character, tonal punch, and unmatched charm in one compact design. Built with a multi-ply maple rim, maple neck, and rolled brass tone ring, it captures the iconic sound made famous by British entertainer George Formby, while offering modern precision and playability.

With its 8-inch Remo head, vintage brown high-gloss finish, and concert-scale neck, the Gold Tone Banjolele delivers a crisp, percussive tone that stands out in both solo and ensemble settings. The combination of maple and brass ensures exceptional clarity, warmth, and resonance that only improves with playing time. Its compact size makes it easy to handle while maintaining full, rich projection ideal for recording, stage use, or casual jam sessions.

This model is perfect for ukulele players seeking more projection, banjo enthusiasts exploring hybrid instruments, and performers who appreciate traditional craftsmanship with modern reliability. Whether you’re playing for fun, performing on stage, or adding vintage flair to your collection, the Gold Tone Banjolele offers timeless tone and unbeatable playability.

Each instrument is professionally set up by Gold Tone’s U.S. workshop to ensure optimal playability, tonal response, and balance straight out of the case. Every Banjolele is carefully adjusted, tuned, and inspected for a flawless playing experience.
