- Learn banjo techniques on the banjolele!
The banjo ukulele, also known as the banjolele or banjo uke, is a four-stringed musical instrument with a small banjo-type body and a fretted ukulele neck. The earliest known banjoleles were built by John A. Bolander[1] and by Alvin D. Keech,[2] both in 1917.
The instrument achieved its greatest popularity in the 1920s and 1930s, and combines the small scale, tuning, and playing style of a ukulele with the construction and distinctive tone of a banjo, hence the name. Its development was pushed by the need for vaudeville performers to have an instrument that could be played with the ease of the ukulele, but with more volume.

I have a banjolele but didn’t know some of this info. Thanks for this. Also, might I suggest you lower your camera so we can see you play?
Greetings my good sir and kudos on an amazing video! Love your vibes! However, let's call a spade a spade: Africans were *brought* to America by force to work their lives away as slaves. I know it's a touchy subject for us banjo players, but I think it's important to always be open and honest about the actual history of this magnificent instrument that I am also in love with. Great vid htough :-)
Go man go!
It's so neat seeing your performances on You-tube. It's like, "Hey, I know that guy!" LOL.
I dig this and this old guy.
Wish the camera angle showed your strumming hand
Is there a Banjolee tuned as a Baritone Ukulele?
I’ll have to pull out my banjolele and dust it off.
Such an interesting history lesson! Thanks :) I knew about the banjolele, but not about the history of banjo. I thought it was brought from Irish to US. I am looking for a banjolele, because banjos are too big. I like their sound but still... Not much space at home😂😂 take care :)
Gold Tone would be one of best and affordable banjoleles you could get. I use one. If you want a free 7 lesson course on bluegrass just send your email to drhdfisher@gmail.com Thanks. Dr. Dennis
@@bluegrassukulelecelebration I've considered that brand. Thanks! I might consider it when I get it :)
11:22 Is there a tutorial for this?
Ho, congtarulations, you are vero Good, can i knowledge the title of first song? Thank you
Thanks a lot for the detailed explanation on the differences and history behind en! I think I'll go with a 5 string banjo if I can find one in my country.
I have a question though, would you recommend an open back or one with a resonator for first time players?
If you want to do bluegrass use a closed back with resonator...if you want to play clawhammer use an open back.
So sorry for my long delay. If you want to do bluegrass get a banjo with a resonator. If you want to do clawhammer get an open back. -- Dr. Dennis

Interesting history lesson, thank you. One thing, you want folks to sign up for your programme, do you not think you might sort out your video quality first? It was really terrible (sound was perfect) when I watched it today.
