Models

  • Beltona Super Baritone Ukulele

    New Zealand

    The Super Baritone is Beltona's large resonator ukulele, with a 20.5-inch scale and an eight-inch resonator cone in a composite glass/carbon-fibre body. Built in Ōpunake, New Zealand, it delivers strong projection in a baritone-uke format.

  • Beltona Southerner

    New Zealand

    The Southerner is Beltona's flagship single-cone resonator guitar, built with a lightweight glass- and carbon-fibre resin body around a spun-aluminium Beltona cone. At roughly four pounds it is far lighter than a metal-bodied resonator, and is made in Ōpunake, New Zealand.

  • Beltona Kiwi Ukulele

    New Zealand

    The Kiwi is Beltona's soprano resonator ukulele, with a fibreglass-composite body, wooden top, kauri neck and rosewood fingerboard. It pairs a Beltona aluminium cone with a mellow yet punchy voice, built in New Zealand.
