The Ortega OUBJ100-SBK is a concert-sized ukulele from the Banjolele series, which blends the tonal characteristics of a banjo with the playability of a ukulele. This model features a maple plywood body with an open-back design, offering a lightweight and resonant build. The hard maple neck and ovangkol fretboard create a smooth playing experience.
Its black satin finish enhances its bold appearance, while the Remo ebony head and 18 chrome brackets allow for optimal sound projection and tuning stability. The open gear tuners provide reliable tuning, and the instrument includes a deluxe banjolele bag for added portability.
With 18 frets, a nut width of 1.38 inches, and a scale length of 15.51 inches, this right-handed acoustic instrument is designed for comfort and performance. It is ideal for musicians looking to explore hybrid instruments and experiment with unique sounds.
