I'm still in the decision making stage of what instrument to start with. I am considering the idea of buying an instrument tuned CGDA that sounds like your stereotypical classical guitar.
I know some people put nylon strings on banjos (indeed all stringed instruments were built for gut stings) but that would just sound like an ukulele, which I abhor.
Or I could possibly restring an ordinary tenor with nylon strings but then the tension will be too low.
Does anybody know of any tenor guitars that are specifically built for nylon/gut strings which is not just an oversized ukulele?
There would be a Thomann Tenor Guitar Standard but this comes with a ADGB tuning.
Or am I wasting time and chasing shadows?
