OK folks. I'm curious.
Tenor guitars and banjos are commonly tuned three or four different ways -- CGDA, GDAE and Chicago (DGBE). I know there are also a few common modal/open tunings.
i would like to conduct a simple survey.
Which instrument?
-tenor guitar
-tenor banjo
-both
Which tuning?
Style of music?
Here's my response, as a sample:
-tenor guitar and tenor banjo
- currently CGDA and GDAE, although I've used Chicago for solo singing accompaniment.
- jug band (using banjo in GDAE) and folk/old time - songs, not tunes (using tenor guitar in CGDA).
