Barnes & Mullins BUBJ1 Closed-Back Banjo-lele Banjo Ukulele

Classic Banjo Charm Meets Ukulele Playability

The Barnes & Mullins BUBJ1 Banjo Ukulele blends traditional banjo character with the warm playability of a ukulele, delivering classic tone, unique stage presence and vintage charm. With its mahogany resonator, neck and tone rim, paired with a Remo coated 8" Weatherking head, it produces that unmistakable bright, percussive banjo-ukulele sound with plenty of projection and cut.

The antique gloss finish, Ovangkol fingerboard with dot inlays and no-knot tailpiece give it an authentic old-time aesthetic. Open gear tuners with chrome buttons provide tuning stability, while the maple bridge with Ovangkol tip adds clarity and sustain. Whether for folk jams, acoustic sessions or vintage-inspired performance, this hybrid instrument stands out in both look and tone.

At Riffs & Licks Music, we think the BUBJ1 is perfect for players wanting traditional banjo character in a compact, ukulele-friendly format.
