Well , I bought one at last ; a cheap but well-made "Delta Blue" model,

which has a large & impressive resonator , but awful tuners ! However , it was , as they say , "modestly priced" . It's comfortable to play , once having got used to the tight string-spacing , and is great for playing Irish tunes , although strummed chords sound dreadful ! And ,of course , one doesn't need to learn any new fingering ; I am VERY happy with it !
