Hi, ive picked up this today and im just looking for a bit of advice and background on it and maybe a valuation if possible. Will be looking to sell ?? i have more photos available but was only allowed three.. theres no damage or cracks, the strings are in working order.. the tuners are turning freely and holding. As you can probably tell far from my area of expertise ??
I looked it up and saw one listing for sale at 39 pounds from Back Alley Music in the UK but it did not have the resonator like yours does which should raise the price. That is very low but a banjo ukelele isn't too popular of an instrument unless there's a reason a buyer would want to learn to play or collect, or a musician is looking for that tone. New Banjoleles sell for $250, I'd value it at $120-200 if it plays well and any more is because of sentimental value. The canvas head and binding on the resonator look in good condition.
There is some neat history with how the maker of these were in both east and west germany between 1953-1977 so some people can try to date them based on the logo on the inside. It is just often pretty difficult trying to find information about these makers that only existed for a short while, but have fun and good luck with it.
