The Oscar Schmidt Banjolele is a unique musical instrument that combines the distinctive sound of a banjo with the small-scale tuning and playing style of a ukulele. This four-stringed instrument features a small banjo-style body and a fretted concert-size ukulele neck, making it a popular choice in the 1920s and 1930s.
The instrument's mahogany body is complemented by a Remo head with 12 brackets and a cast aluminum tone ring, providing a rich and resonant tone. The mahogany neck features a 18-fret Rosetek fingerboard with dot inlays, and the open gear tuning machines have pearloid buttons for a smooth and precise tuning experience.
The Oscar Schmidt Banjolele is tuned to the standard ukulele tuning of G-C-E-A, allowing players to seamlessly transition between the two instruments. The satin finish of the instrument adds a touch of elegance and durability, making it a versatile choice for a variety of musical genres.
Backed by a lifetime warranty, the Oscar Schmidt Banjolele is a reliable and high-quality instrument that has stood the test of time. Whether you're a seasoned musician or a beginner, this unique blend of banjo and ukulele is sure to captivate and inspire your musical journey.
