Angel from Montgomery

Just got a new archtop tenor and thought I try it out. This is a great song written by John Prine and originally recorded by Bonnie Raitt.

I like the archtop, I play bass and I've had a tenor for a while but never bothered with it, up until recently I've decided to try and fix it up and learn how to play it. Mines a Stella TG929.

I was looking at your page and noticed that you have a Paramore cover on your favorites, it would be cool if you played some Paramore or something similar on your tenor. Just a suggestion.

Thanks for the kind words! I also have a Stella TG929 too! It is the guitar I started playing on as a kid ;-)

Do you have a Paramore favorite?

Looks like one of those Mike Soares tenors.

[MoniMausy]

Why yes it is:-)

Great cover, and I really like your tenor guitars. How do you tune a tenor guitar? -Ron

[MoniMausy]

Thanks! Mine is tuned CGDA.  There are other tunings: Irish = GDAE; Chicago = DGBE, etc.

My favorite song by Paramore is Conspiracy, its from All We Know Is Falling so its not there most popular song but its my favorite.

This video makes me think it would sound really good on a tenor because the chords are high and so it wouldn't sound weird at all: watch?v=YnKjv2fxcAg

Do you still have your Stella? I've seen some online for about $250, and I think I'm really lucky because I got mine for $10 at an auction where nobody knew what they had (not even me hahaha)
