The Korena take

Built for left-handed GCEA playing, the Little Gem Banjo Ukulele combines an 8-inch clear head with a transparent composite rim and resonator. Its maple neck and fingerboard carry 18 frets on a 15-inch scale, while sealed guitar-style tuners handle tuning adjustments. Gold Tone describes its voice as penetrating. The included gig bag gives the instrument a ready transport option.
