The banjo uke is officially available from fleamarket music:

Many of us have had these on order for a while, so I expect a flurry of reviews shortly. For those of you out there who are tuning peg aficionados, you can upgrade yours to pegheds for an additional $69 if you call them and ask. Thanks to harpdog cc and kseigel for putting out the word about the possible upgrade.
I can't wait for this one. I love the idea of a super light banjo uke with the playability, durability, and low maintenance of a flea. I don't like the heaviness of some of the other models, and I definitely don't want to have to "mess with" the head all of the time, although many banjo uke and banjo players consider this part of the charm - masochists . I prefer simple light and fun, like a uke is supposed to be!
