Step 8Finished !
Advice : apply as much tension as you can to the tambourine skin !!! Heavy skin tension really improves projection.
Use an electronic tuner to place the bridge correctly (BTW bridge is not glued, strings tension holds it in place). Once done, use a fine pencil to mark the place of the bridge (for further use :)
I've mounted Worth CM strings instead of the awful black strings supplied with the kit.
And this is how the banjo uke sounds like :

The recording is quiet bad, and I'm just an average player, but hope this will give an idea of the uke sound.
Optionnaly, if you want to play your banjo ukulele through an amplifier or P.A when gigging for instance, you can get a piezo transducer jammed between the skin and the central "leg" of the bridge. It works very well when plugged in a D.I box or a mint box buffer (http://www.scotthelmke.com/Mint-box-buffer.html)
