    I’m not an expert professional or a performer so I didn’t want to buy a top quality expensive banjolele but I was pleasantly surprised with this one! It feels heavy and sturdy not cheap. The pegs and tuner are plastic but they’re solid and they work. The gold logo is coming off but I’m not mad about it. The strap is a little weird where it clips onto the bottom but it’s ok. The case is nice and sturdy, maybe a little tight but it zips up and protects it. The pick up is probably really cheap but I’ve never had one before so I think it’s really cool! You can use it on any other instruments you have, too (you need an amp for it to work) Using this, you can plug your banjolele into an I-rig and play with distortion ;)
    All in all, this a is a great sounding little banjolele that I am extremely satisfied with!
    No problem with shipping either

    If you’re looking for an inexpensive banjo ukulele that’s playable, well built, looks good, and is inexpensive, this one is great. Mine stays in tune well. I did adjust the truss rod to lower the action just a little but it was still quite playable without doing it. The gig bag is actually better and has more padding than I expected. The tuner works fine. The pickup works but the adhesive is really strong. It’s difficult to remove once it’s on. The fret edges are a little rough but not too bad. Still deciding if I want to file them or not. Overall I really like this item.

    I was quit surprised when I opened the shipping box and pulled out this Banjolele. It is very well made and has a very good sound. I am extremely impressed with its appearance. I highly recommend.

    I really like my Kmise banjolele. The sound is classic banjo in a concert size uke. I love the white head and wooden body. The strap works nicely and the gig bag is handy to take my banjolele in the road! The set up was easy. The strings settled in nicely sooner than I expected. This is my second banjolele and I much prefer my Kmise than other brand. Don’t hesitate to buy this instrument if you are looking for a great sounding fun size banjo.

    Bought the banjolele just to have the variety of sound as I learn the ukulele. This was a great deal with some positive video reviews on line so I took a chance and am very happy that I did. While I don't have another banjolele to compare this to, I can say that it feels solid in the hands and I like the ready-to-play complete package that it is bundled with.

    Impressively, I received to an email from them after purchase that seemed like a blanket email just checking in and inviting me to ask any questions. I did. I wanted to know how to pronounce the brand name. They responded within 24 hours that it is pronounced "K-mizz." Interesting, and now I know.

    Even more impressively though, I found a manufacturing defect with an apparent piece of debris under the laminate on the drum cylinder that was causing a bubble in the laminate. I sent the seller a photo with a description of the problem and they sent out a replacement - can't argue with that customer service at all.

    Because of that customer service experience and the quality of this banjolele, I have since purchased two more Kmise instruments: a tenor and a concert ukulele. Why? Because at the prices paid, I feel like I am getting a great value, so this new hobby of mine has become very inexpensive to allow me to expand to an ukulele tuned to low G in the tenor, and the concert just because I fell in love with the design - no other reason, happy birthday to me.

    Bottom line: I highly recommend this banjolele as well as the other Kmise instruments.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Not For Beginners
    Reviewed in the United States on November 29, 2022
    UPDATE: I still stand by my statement that beginners should pass on this. BUT, this could be a fun instrument for intermediate and advanced players. It took me close to an hour to make the adjustments necessary for this instrument to be playable. Once I got all the strings off, the tuning peg for the A string was the only one that was loose. Once I opened it up, I noticed there was quite a bit of debris that was most likely accumulated from the machining process. That's a QC issue with the company that made the tuners although I feel that whomever assembled the instrument should have caught it and corrected. Overall, I think it's a decent buy for the price. Yes, I had to spend some time to make it playable, but now that it's set up properly, I'm happy with it. I will probably still replace the tuners somewhere down the road but once I had a look at the guts, it doesn't seem to be as urgent as I had originally thought. If it had come out of the box in this condition, I would have rated it a 4 or 5, but with the time I had to put into it, the broken strap button, and my initial disappointment from how it came out of the box, I have to give it a 3.

    First of all, this instrument is not for beginners. It's a beautiful instrument but it requires too much work out of the box for a beginner. Things went wrong right away. Loved the look of the strap and the material BUT it takes some work to get the buttons through the holes to the point where the brad on one of the buttons broke trying to get it through the hole. It actually made it possible to get it through the hole and then crimped it back in place with pliers. It seems to be holding well for now. You'll learn the value of stretching your strings with this instrument. It was impossible to tune out of the box. At first, I thought maybe the electronic tuner was junk but I tried it on my other ukes and double-checked the tuning with my Snark and the tuner that's included is above average. I sat the instrument down for a few seconds to go grab a capo and the A string broke(which seems to be a recurring theme). That's due to them not being strung properly by the manufacturer, they're wound too tight at the tuning peg. Upside to the A string breaking, it gave me a chance to check the tuning peg. The tuning pegs are junk. Kudos to you if you get one and can keep it in tune. The pegs are too loose and since they're closed, not easy to adjust. I plan to swap them out with a set of quality, open-gear pegs.

    I'm giving this a one-star so people will read the review but I would actually rate it 2 stars. As mentioned earlier, it is a beautiful instrument, has great sound, and the wood grain is gorgeous. With a little work and $10-$20 for better parts, I think I can turn it into a 4 star instrument. And the pickup that is included is a decent little pickup.

    If you're a beginner, this is not the instrument for you. Spend a little more money and get a Gold Tone Little Gem or a base level Oscar Schmitt. They're not that much more expensive but will be less hassle for you out of the box. If you decide to go ahead and give it a try, I recommend re-stringing it before you do anything else. Replace the tuners if needed and enjoy.

    Easy to place the bridge following the instructions with template provided. Replaced strings with Aquila low D set. Tuners are good.
    Instrument seems indestructible, solid and a bit heavy. No fears taking it camping, canoeing.
