Hi Morix,
I've sent you a PM as I live in France and have a couple of tenors I'm thinking of selling. If you live near me in France you'd be welcome to try some of my tenors. Even if they're not...
"My Dog and Me" by John Hiatt, great song
I'm also very sorry to hear it. His excellent service, parts and advice greatly helped me get started in amateur instrument making.
As I don't think anyone else has mentioned it, the OP's price range would include a mint-condition 1920s Gibson TG1. I've played a lot of tenors, modern and vintage, and for me, nothing can touch...
That's really kind, thanks; I'll look forward to giving this a go on my tenor guitar. I love all of Joe's tunes. Currently trying to get to grips with the instrumental "Bob's Bucket" from the same...
This is great like all your other videos. I didn't know this tune. Very helpful how you focus on the fretting hand. Many thanks.
Congratulations, sure you won't regret it
They're out there for much less but the condition's not the same: here's my 1928. She's really seen some strumming in her time. Plenty of work required but well worth it...154748
So far I've...
I'd actually put in a plea for GDAE tuning because people who tune CGDA can already access a lot of tenor banjo material whereas, to my knowledge, there's nothing jazz-oriented out there for the...
Many thanks David. That's great, and so clearly presented. Can't wait to try that tonight!
I'd love to see this, is there any way for non Facebook users to access it?
Thanks!
Thanks guys.
The appeal, like with the Beatles book, for me would be having the tunes/exercises written out for GDAE rather than CGDA-tuned instruments, as is the case for tenor banjo tutors, but I...
Just wondering if anyone had tried this book on tenor guitar?
I no longer play mando and stick to longer-scaled tenors now. I've had a lot of success and enjoyment out of the Beatles chord melody...
Wonderful! We're a small bunch checking in here regularly and you may not get as many comments as you deserve but I can tell you your postings are really appreciated and inspirational.
Lovely playing with real life to it and your enjoyment shows through
I'd contact them, many German people speak excellent English and this shop also ships internationally. Looks like a nice instrument at a good price.
Enjoying this thread, even if I don't have the slightest idea of what anyone's talking about...
Boring anyone??? You must be joking, that was some awesome tenor playing and the singing was nice too. So please keep posting them. I've really been enjoying your other videos on YT too. You're...
If you're a hack, what am I? Anyway many thanks, I definitely need to get that book. Especially if you're doing some of the tunes so I can hear what they sound like. Hey, it's nearly Christmas, I've...
Lovely playing and great tune - is it in an instruction book?
I believe he tunes CGDA (please correct me if I'm wrong) so traditional jazz tenor banjo tuition would be a good way to start.
The re-entrant tuning or something similar is what I was wondering about. I find that 5 strings in fifths gives me all the range I could ever need but if the 6th string could be useful, I'd consider...
Hi D0miuke,
Yes, of course feel free to send me a personal message - in either French or English. I have made a few tenors in a variety of styles but I don't sell them professionally, I was meaning...
I'm a big fan of 5 string tenors strung FCGDA and have been recently mulling over what it would be like to add a 6th bass string but strictly as a drone string or for occasional use to fill out...
Hi and welcome to the Café. Which region do you live in? You'll probably have a hard time finding anywhere outside Paris to try a tenor guitar in person, which just leaves you with the big mail order...
