Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Built for left-handed players who need a banjo that is easy to carry, the two-pound Plucky 5-String comes with a carrying bag for taking along. Its neck width is similar to that of a full-size banjo, while the low action is intended to make fingering manageable. It arrives set up at the Gold Tone factory and is ready for open C or open D tuning. For playing with others in standard G, it needs the specified replacement string gauges.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Taking a compact left-handed five-string banjo along on the trail or away from home.
- Home playing where a lightweight banjo and carrying bag make setup and storage straightforward.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players needing standard G tuning without changing to the specified string gauges.
