You can play irish style melody in CGDA on a tenor and it still sounds great, but it might just take a lilltle experimenting to get the right strings in GDAE.
Considering that Gerry O'Connor mainly plays CGDA tuned tenor banjo, instead of the usual Irish tuning GDAE & he must be one of the greatest Irish banjo player alive.
Agree! As far as GDAE strings go, Elderly (NFI) has packaged a GDAE tenor guitar string set for the Breedlove tenor which works great on my Blueridge tenor.

Current Stable: Two Tenor Guitars (Martin 515, Blueridge BR-40T), a Tenor Banjo (Deering GoodTime 17-Fret), a Mandolin (Burgess #7). two Banjo-Ukes and five Ukuleles..
The inventory is always in some flux, but that's part of the fun.
