I wonder who will be the lucky 100th member? Perhaps we could give a prize to that person? Maybe one or more of our members who have produced CDs, such as our...
Just been through the mails so far and seen notes by Martin on Len Fillis, who didn't get it quite right. When I transcribed Fillis' music it was (I think) ...
If I could hear this recording I could tell you the tuning used (I'm one of those anal retentive bastards with perfect pitch).....any easy way for me to hear...
I can send you an MP3 file, but how does that help with the pitch of the tuning? You also need to know which fret is being fingered. You don't need perfect...
David,<br><br>Although the photos are pretty terrible, it certainly looks like a tenor guitar to me and quite an interesting one at that - I was tempted a...
David,<br><br>That is certainly possible, and even likely, because six strimg accoutrements are common on tenors, at least judging by some of my guitars....
it looks like it has an extra pin, or space for two even, on the bridge? Does that give any clues? Tom M wrote in the Gibson section of tenorguitar.com that...
I only meant that I could tell you what notes the open strings are tuned to, since open strings have a different timbre than fretted notes. If you want, you...
The extra pin on the Gibsons is a spare that sits below the others. This one looks like a 6 string bridge that is off center, or something. It looks like they ...
David, you may be right about the neck not being original. I'm sure the neck started life as a tenor, but now that you mention it, it looks like a tenor neck ...
It all smells a bit to me. Bad photo,etc.<br>I can't see a mark where the bridge was moved FROM.<br> But if I was useing a 6 bridge on a 4 guitar I would have...
Here's my guess after looking at the picture. It's the original bridge (tenor guitars used six string bridges)and the "fill" for the top string is missing. The...
David, I would indeed use the 4 middle holes! Mulacaster may be right about someone just stringing it funny-the strings do look off center over the sound hole....
Okay guys. The seller sent me 4 new photo's and it is a Tenor. It needs a bit of binding down the left side of the neck and the scratch plate will leave 2...
Item 1428136038 Kay Tenor. I was hoping this mess would go cheap for a rebuild but it is at my limit. (As I would have shipping to pay on top)If one of you has...
It may interest you(or it may not) that Paul Hares (Who?) has just ordered a Tenor from me.<br>I had only a Tenor and a 5 string acoustic bass left in my show...
Since I have a love of the ironic twists in life, I feel the need to pass this little story on.<br>About 8 years ago, I attended a musical instrument auction...
I am having an Epiphone tenor restored, my first tenor guitar after playing tenor banjo for many years. What is the concensus concerning string guages? About ...
Merril,<br><br>Sounds a great guitar. Strings are very personal and sometimes difficult to agree on but look at my posting #1491 in response to a similar ...
Merril,<br><br>I should have added that you cannot use phosphor-bronze strings because of the pick up which needs steel wound or plain strings. Wound for C and...
That'll make a nice instrument for someone!<br>That model, when set up correctly is a knockout: loud , punchy but still quite sweet. I would have thought that...
