Banjolele

Banjo Ukulele aka Banjolele, Banjulele, Banjalele or Ukulele Banjo
At it's simplest a Banjo Ukulele is a Ukulele that is fitted with a drum like resonating banjo body rather than a traditional wooden body. As ever the reason for doing this was to make the instrument louder at a time when there was no electric amplification and it sometimes had to compete with brass instruments.
