He (Formby) specifically played the Soprano Banjo more than the Ukulele, >>
This is getting complicated. What is a soprano Banjo? Formby was always
described as playing the ukelele but in fact he played a banjolele.
A I understand it the uke has 4 strings is usually wooden and is shaped like
a small guitar as played by girls in grass skirts. A banjolele has four
strings but is banjo shaped with a skin head and a short neck .
