  1. Warren Ellis Tenor Guitar Country of Origin

    Has anyone recently purchased a Warren Ellis tenor guitar? My Warren Ellis tenor guitar was made in Korea. The quality of my guitar is really good. Later Eastwood started making the Warren Ellis...

    Re: HB Tenor Guitar

    Can the price really only be $169.00? The specs say it has a solid sitka spruce top and the audio samples sound good. How can it be this inexpensive?

    Re: Intonation on Blueridge BR-60T

    I love my BR-60T but it needed a professional setup badly when I bought it. I use Chicago tuning (DGBE). Even after the setup the B string is a few cents sharp at the 12th fret. I compensate by...

    Re: String spacing?

    The Eastwood Tenorcaster and MRG Tenor also have wide string spacing, but I don't know if they are the same as the Warren Ellis spacing. To me visually, both the Tenorcaster and MRG Tenor bridge...

    Re: String spacing?

    +1. I'm a bass player and find playing my Warren Ellis tenor guitar very comfortable. The bridge string spacing on my Warren Ellis tenor guitar is 16 mm and the bridge string spacing on my bass...

    Eastwood Serial Numbers

    Are the first two numbers of an Eastwood serial number the year the guitar was manufactured? I purchased my Eastwood Warren Ellis 2P tenor guitar in 2016 as a discontinued model (2 humbuckers) and I...

    Re: Alternate Reality Fender Tenor Tele

    I can't imagine Fender not making more of these. Used 2019 Fender Tenor Teles are selling for $899, $400 more than they sold for brand new. I also wouldn't be surprised if the 2020 models were...
  8. Re: DGBE (Chicago) Tuning: A and Bb/A# chords are weird

    After trying many different string sets I settled on John Pearse 650LM Bluegrass strings (12 16 24 35) for my Blueridge BR-60T tuned DGBE. I find the heavier D string gives the guitar a more...

    Re: Nasty string buzz on Fender Tele

    I use Rotosound Purples (0.012, 0.016, 0.024, and 0.032) for Chicago tuning on my Eastwood Warren Ellis electric tenor guitar. They sound great and no string buzz. A 0.010 E string on a 23 inch...

    Re: New tenor

    I purchased my BR-60T five years ago for $375 (brand new). Having the price more than double in five years seems steep. My salary hasn't doubled in the last five years. :)

    My Blueridge BR-60T sounds amazing and I'm very happy with it. The current prices though are a bit steep. The Martin O-18T was only available with Mahogany back and sides. I like the sound of...

    That's correct Fox. I contacted Saga and they told me that anything less than 100lb would be fine.

    Re: New tenor

    Since they don't say "Solid Spruce" for the top it's most definitely a laminated top. With the price of the Blueridges now, though, this is a great alternative for someone who wants to try tenor...

    Re: New tenor

    It's just a guess, but if it had a solid top it would probably cost more than $189.99.

    Re: Middle four tuning

    I did a quick study on the D major chord (D F# A) using ADGB tuning. The standard chord formation for a 6 string would be 0023. This would result in ADAD. The F# is missing. A D major chord could...

    Re: Unusual Electric Tenor/Mandolin/Uke

    Nice looking instrument but the string spacing at the bridge is inconsistent. The space between the 2 and 3 strings is larger than the space between the 1 and 2 strings and the 3 and 4 strings.

    Re: Fender Tele Tenor at NAMM

    That would make sense from a business perspective, but it would certainly create a lot of ill will towards Fender in the tenor guitar community.
