    Default Just got my first tenor

    I've been wanting a tenor for a while. A few days ago a buddy called out of the blue. He'd just bought a banjo and needed to sell some stuff. Among the stuff was a '51 Martin O-18T. I couldn't say no. Man, is it fun. I'll try to post some pictures soon.

    Yea, those 0-18t's are real nice. Has anyone noted that the price on the 0-18ts has been rising? Seems like anyone you see is over $2k

    Thanks everyone. I'm very low-tech. I had to have my wife help me to post the pictures, so it'll be a while before I can post a sound clip. Let's just say that it sounds alot better than I do. Hey Dick, stop by the house some day and I'll let you play it.
