Hi folks!
I recently purchased my first banjo uke (a Gretsch G9470 "Clarophone" Banjo-Ukulele) from our local music shop. It sounds amazing - I love it and can hardly put it down. I do use it with a strap, so at least I don't have to hold it up, but I've noticed that my life would be easier if I had an armrest on it. I also own a full-sized five string banjo, and I know how much of a difference a good armrest can make.
Gold Tone seems to make a mini banjo armrest for an 8 inch pot, 20 fret model, but I don't know if it would work on my 8 inch 21 fretted instrument.
Does anyone out there know if Gold Tone's armrest would work on my Clarophone, or have any recommendations for something else?
Also, does anyone know where I could find a hard case for a little banjo uke? All of the ones that I can find come with instruments and I can barely play one at a time, let alone two (although the cat doesn't run away anymore, so I think I'm getting better). I already have a gig bag that works for it.
Thanks, everyone!
