Hello Mandolin Cafe i have come across a problem,for my birthday i have the option of getting a new guitar or a tenor guitar which i have been very interested in but know nothing expect for what i have read online. I've been searching for an instrument thats not as used as the 6 string guitar, i mean its nice to set apart yourself from the flock but like i said i do not understand much about the tenor such as is it as versatile as guitar? how does it match up? can it play everything i guitar can? It's been a real tough decision. I Enjoy playing Folk and Western swing but want to get into bluegrass also, would the tenor be a wise choice for those genres in lead and rhythm? or should i just stick to Guitar. Thank you for the time and help everyone =D ]]> Tenor Guitars DrunkenSailor http://www.mandolincafe.com/forum/showthread.php?t=56712 Watching fiddle backup vids from Weiser http://www.mandolincafe.com/forum/showthread.php?t=56576&goto=newpost Sat, 14 Nov 2009 08:12:35 GMT OK, so this style of tenor playing has always fascinated me, but I've never been to one of these contests. And just listening to recordings it was hard for me to pick out what exactly the tenor was doing (as opposed to the six strings). Are they basically playing chop rhythm? Boom-chuck? Muting, or letting ring?

Ah, the wonders of YouTube!



I believe Maddie Denton is also a fiddle champion herself.

There are many others, such as:



Seeing it makes it much easier to understand!

Q1: Are all contests that... surreal?

Q2: I wonder, if you showed up at Weiser with Selmer guitars (6 and Tenor) would it go over well? :mandosmiley:
