I THINK THE TWO MOST IMPORTANT THINGS WITH AN INSTRUMENT IS THE SET UP AND THE CONDITION AND I HAVE DONE MY BEST TO MAKE SURE THAT THIS BANJO UKE TICKS ALL THE BOXES
HERE WE HAVE A GEORGE FORMBY ENDORSED MODEL A BANJO UKULELE MADE BY THE RESPECTYED DALLAS COMPANY
I HAVE IT TUNED TO STANDARD UKE TUNING G C A E BUT I WILL PROVDE THE WINNING buyer WITH ALTERNATIVE TUNING.WHICH CAN BE USED WITHOUT CHANGING THE STRINGSTHE VELLUM IS HELD ON BY 8 CHROME TENSIONERS.THE BACK/RESONATOR IS HELD ON BY 8 BRASS SCREWS .I REMOVED THE TACKS AND FITTED SCREWS SO THE BACK IS NOW EASILY REMOVED IF REQUIRED.
I HAVE FITTED A QUALITY NEW CALF VELLUM WHICH WILL LAST YOU A LIFETIME(BEWARE OF THE CHEAP PAPER THIN ONES THAT HAVE STARTED APPEARING ON ).
IT HAS A KNOT PROTECTED TAIL PIECE TO PROTECT YOUR STRUMING ARM I REFITTED THE ORIGINAL FRICTION TUNERS THAT ARE VERY SMOOTH AND HOLD THE TUNING
CHECKED OUT THEFINGERBOARD AND FRETS TO MAKE SURE THERE IS NO BUZZING OR STANGE NOISES
THE FINGERBOARD ITSELF SHOWS NO SIGNS OF WEAR AND THERE ARE NO SHARP EDGES FROM THE FRETS.
I HAVE FITTED A NEW EBONY TOPPED BRIDGE BUT WILL ALSO SUPPLY A 2ND BRIDGE OF A DIFFERENT HEIGHT SO YOU CAN CHANGE THE ACTION TO YOUR CHOICE
I HAVE FITTED A NEW SET OF MY OWN BRAND OF COLOURED STRINGS (SEE MY OTHER ITEMS)...
AND TO ALL YOU GEORGE FORMBY STRUMMERS I HAVE SET THIS UP (CORRECTED THE NECK ANGLE) WITH A NICE ACTION MAKING IT EASIER TO PERFORM THOSE FORMBY STRUMMING STROKES ( also enclosed some easy to follow strumming sheets allowing you to master many different strumming styles).
COSMETICALLY IT IS IN TRULY WONDERFUL CONDITION WITH ALL CHROMEWORK LOVELY AND SHINY
BEING A LIGHTWEIGHT MODEL IT IS VERY EASY TO HOLD AND PLAY AND IT HAS A DISTINCT \"OLD FASHIONED\" BANJO UKE SOUND WHICH YOU CANNOT GET WITH THE MODERN ONES
