I was pleasantly surprised with this banjolele. I placed the bridge using the provided template and found the banjolele was in tune. I had to adjust the first string slightly. There overall fit, finish and setup is excellent. There are a couple very minor blemishes that you have to search for to find. I expected I would have to do some setup to make this play to my liking but I did not have to do a thing. The action is low, the neck is straight. The tuners are smooth. There are no sharp fret ends. For the money, this is an excellent buy. I’m always leery about buying inexpensive instruments on Amazon, but this one is a winner. I have played ukuleles for some time now and I have repaired half a dozen in the past year. One included removing a smashed top and replacing it with new one I made from some Padauk I had on hand, so I know a little bit about construction and quality. All strings except the 1st (A string) stay in tune and it only flattens out slightly over time. Many times you have to constantly tune ukes until the strings are broken in. Sometimes that is because of crappy tuning keys. The tuners on this are tight enough that they do not lose tune easily, but still turn smoothly. The sound quality is pretty good too. Not fantastic, but good.
