Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Gold Tone’s GME-4 is a four-string electric solidbody mandolin in a cream gloss finish, aimed at Texas Swing, hillbilly jazz, and rock ’n’ roll work. Its stacked humbucking pickup is described as providing substantial output without feedback, with onboard volume and tone controls for adjustment at the instrument. The cast metal bridge gives each string its own height and compensation adjustment. A slim maple neck and radiused integral fretboard shape the playing setup, and a padded gig bag is included.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Electric mandolin parts in Texas Swing, hillbilly jazz, and rock ’n’ roll arrangements.
- Players who need individual string-height and compensation adjustment at the bridge.
