Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

The Amethyst Little Gem is a GCEA banjo ukulele with a maple neck and a transparent composite rim-and-resonator design. Its 15-inch scale carries 18 frets, giving players a defined layout for chord and melody work. Sealed guitar-style tuners are fitted, and the instrument is described with a penetrating tone for music that needs a direct presence. The included gig bag makes it ready to take along for lessons, practice, or rehearsal.
