The ‘Markendale Silhouette’, crafted in the early 90s, draws inspiration from the renowned pre-war ‘Abbott’ banjo ukuleles.

Recently, this ukulele has undergone maintenance by Alan at Alan Yates Music. The work included a deep clean and polish of both the wood and metal components. It boasts a brand new bone nut, fresh strings, and a new bridge, all of which have been professionally set up for optimal performance.

Accompanying this instrument is the coveted ‘Savage & Hoy’ case, known for its quality and craftsmanship. This case is no longer produced, making it even more desirable for collectors and players alike. It is in excellent condition, ensuring your banjo ukulele is well-protected.

Included with the ukulele is a selection of case candy, featuring the original tension key manufactured by Markendale—an uncommon find—along with literature that details their banjo ukulele products and a business card from Savage & Hoy. Having been loved by the current owner for many a decades from new, this exceptional sounding banjo ukulele now awaits its next devoted owner.
