  • Most Excellent Package!! And Excellent Supplier!
Size: Banjo ukulele
Some 50+ years ago, I played an old ukulele and have great memories of the fun. I recently had an urge to play one again, but with a twist. I have always appreciated the sound qualities of banjos. When I realized that a banjo ukulele was available and within financial reach for a casual, fun instrument, I elected to get one. After researching the market, I settled on the AKLOT, which is the higher grade instrument in the Kmise line. Both trade names were favorably reviewed, but the AKLOT was generally preferred for it's louder projections and excellent fidelity for an affordable uke. I have been very please with the AKLOT product! It arrived in two days in a double-packed shipping box. I think it was packaged to survive importation as well as UPS! Well done, AKLOT! I unwrapped it, inspected the contents, and everything in the kit was pristine. The banjo uke was strung, but not tightly. I checked the location of the bridge using the supplied gauge, which proved to be a great method of checking the setup. The bridge was right on! The electronic tuner made it easy to bring it up to the "my dog has fleas" tuning. Over these past weeks, retuning has been needed less frequently as the strings and neck settled in to their longer-term stable positions. I still check it often, as it's quite a lot of fun to use the tuning tool!! It has a great sound! No, not as abrupt as steel strings on a full-sized banjo, but also much sharper than a ukulele, with that great banjo twang! It has a fine, uniform and blemish-free finish, and great workmanship all around. No burrs on the metal parts, especially the frets, and no hint of roughness or splinters anywhere. The banjo head has a consistent tension over all sections, and I haven't had to touch the neck or head tensioning. After a couple of weeks, the electronic tuner became intermittent, so I called Amazon and emailed with the supplier. A couple of days later, a new tuner showed up in the mail. No muss, no fuss, no disagreements. They just took care of me with great customer service! The strap is very comfortable and has a silky consistency. Much better than I expected. I planned to buy a new strap, expecting a pretty cheap crap strap, but I had a great surprise with the strap included in the package. The bottom line is this: It's been a great purchase and I'm having fun with my new banjo uke! It sounds great, easy to tune, and I have a great supplier behind me if I should need additional assistance. It doesn't get much better than this in today's rather mixed up market. Thanks, AKLOT! ... show more

  • Big Banjo Joy!
Size: 5-String Banjo
Opening the big box to behold this banjo is like being introduced to someone for the first time yet feeling as if you've known the person your whole life. I'm newly meeting an old, old soulmate! Just initially bridging and tuning this AKLOT 5-string, open back banjo is an overwhelming experience. I'm shocked at the beauty and substantial heft of the instrument as well as the ugly import of its cultural weight. This AKLOT feels sturdy, solid and well-crafted. At 38" from top to bottom, the banjo is slightly longer than many other models -- which works for me, since I have long arms. The tiger stripe maple wood head, honey-colored maple body and distressed REMO drum head give the instrument a bright, new, clean yet old-timey vintage look. While the thin carrying case, bizarrely colored neck strap and other accessories aren't much to speak of, that doesn't diminish the excellent price -- or the elegant sound quality of this beauty. Unlike the tinny, jangling twang of most inexpensive banjos, this model has a modest, mellow and almost muted sound. Perfect for late-night playing at home. Although I've only had it for a few weeks, the banjo seems to hold its tuning well -- and its solid construction assures me I'll have many years of strumming, stroking, plucking and playing around. To say that I'm happy with this baby is a big understatement. I'm beyond thrilled with my new banjo! ... show more

  • The banjo works nice and easy to set up. worth the money
Size: 5-String Banjo
I liked that I ordered my Aklot banjo and received the next day. It was easy to set up. There was a a piece of plastic cut and marked where to set the bridge. Just loosened the strings. Put the bridge at the location indicated by the piece of plastic. Put the battery in the tuner, held the button to turn it on. Then tightened the strings twice for tuning played a couple songs. Then retuned it again after letting it sit for an hour retuned slightly then played for 30 minutes. Worked very good. Has a nice mellow sound. Worth the money. action is low, fret edges a little sharp. Zipper on the bag inside gig bag seemed to be on backwards. Might to rework that. Didn’t like the picks that were sent too metally. Is the ring that holds the head plastic or wood? ... show more

  • Does the job
Size: 5-String Banjo
Wanted a banjo,this was decent price and wooden. Banjo looked good. I set it up and only had a few issues. Some of the frets were a little sharp so I filed them smooth. And the arm rest had a sharp bur that would snag a shirt or scratch the skin. So I filed that . The tuners are cheaply made but hold the note for the time I play it. I do not regret this purchase and am very happy ... show more

  • Great value!
Size: Banjo ukulele
I actually bought this for parts. I have a couple other banjoleles need a tailpiece, one needs an armrest, and another needs a fiberskyn head. (It’s just about impossible to find those for an 8 inch pot. ) However, after playing this for awhile, I decided to keep it and use the other banjos for parts. Intonation is good. Frets could use a tiny bit of work, but very playable out of box. Tone is a bit thin, I think it would benefit from new strings and maybe a back cover, with washers between the back and the pot to let the sound come out. ... show more
