Tom M has one of those, Mark and he speaks highly of it. Also you may be able to get one cheaper than $199.00 - I've seen them cheaper on eBay - there are...
Mark: I bought one a while back, and although I have not connected to an amp yet, it seems like a fun little instrument.. Honestly, I am having problems with...
Hi All, Have any of you ever experimented with tuning a 6-string guitar in fifths, either CGDA (with dummy strings for the other two, just to keep the tension...
Hi Jim <snip> ... I make electric mandos and use light electric guitar strings bypassing the 17 and 46 thou strings. 10, 13, 26 and 36 does it nicely. You...
Thanks for the suggestions Rob. I'll try these string gauges. Jim James M. Owston, EdS, ABD WebCT Certified Senior Trainer Associate Vice President for...
Hi Ken, I might be able to get the first string up to an A if I use a .009, but I'm not even concerned about the lower two strings. I wouldn't necessarily...

Hi, You might want to try a Requinto. It's a small sized, about 80%, 6 string guitar used in Mexican/Mariachi Band settings as the lead instrument. It's...
It's taken a bit logner than expected, but the tenor guitar buyer's guide I was bragging about a week or three ago is finally fully operational at: ...
Two quick comments: 1) The requinto is designed for and uses nylon strings, so do factor in the difference in tension. 2) The Bb Andy's talking about, in order...
Hi Frank, Excellent site, thank you. Please do include Shelley Park as a maker of outstanding tenor guitars (www.parkguitars.com). She doesn't list them on...
... Glad to hear people like it. :-) ... She already was mentioned there actually, but only with some very rudimentary info. I've added a little bit more and...
... I know that a few years ago one was able to order a Martin 0-18T as a special order, but the price would have been in the same league as Shelley. I...

I just met two of the founders, Mark Josephs & Tom Molyneaux (sp?) of the tenor guitar website. We got together to jam yesterday in El Cerrito. Tom has a Godin...
Boy, I wish I'd been there. It was just too far. I went to Mark's workshop in LA a few months ago and I enjoyed it tremendously. Would have loved to see the...
I'm a beginner and I have a question...I have two very old Mel Bay books....one called Tenor Guitar Chords and the other Fun With the Tenor Guitar. I'm trying...
Ok...I'm am so confused right now...my last message was regarding the books showing the same position for two different chords and I did not mention that these...
Sonny: From looking at your chord structure, it looks as though your books are for the DGBE tuning. The chord structure you list provides the notes (low to...
Sonny: I would select the tuning that is similar to what you are most comfortable. As a multi-instrumentalist, this should help you make the selection. If you...
Sunny, You've probably had this answered already but chord books for the tenor guitar from the fifties and sixties (as opposed to the tenor banjo) almost...
Since you say you also have a tenor banjo, I would almost certainly go with CGDA because that is the same as tenor banjo tuning. Then get books for your tenor...
I'm way thinning my herd so the following are avalable. Buyer pays shiping and insurance. Discounts available to Bay Area buyers who are willing to pick up...
I would recomend CGDA for both the tenor guitar and banjo although DGBE can also be used on both. http://chordfind.com/4-string/ Here's a fairly nice online...
sunnyperrin, If you're fairly new to chord theory, and you're up for purchasing yet-another-book, I recommend one of the "Tenor Guitar Chord Genius" books....
Hi, Another way to go re tuning is to tune your instruments GDAE (low to high), which is fiddle, mandolin, octave mandolin and Irish banjo tuning. There are...
