Triad Chords for Tenor Guitar Part 1

This should open up the simplicity of the tenor guitar for people who are familiar with the tenor guitar, as well as for those who have no concept of what the difference and advantages are to playing the tenor guitar as opposed to the six string guitar. The Third Annual Tenor Guitar Gathering will be June 1-3 , 2012 in Astoria, Oregon and we'd like to get 100 tenor guitar players to attend this year for the sheer fun of it, so pencil in the date, plan to attend, and spread the word any way you can. I hope you have some fun and get something out of this "triad for tenor" lesson!

Thanks! I'm a mandolin player about to pick-up my first tenor guitar, and I found this remarkably helpful! Also, I am almost certain that he is playing in the traditional CGDA tuning.

Thank you for the lesson, very informative. I'm looking for a new/used tenor, could you tell me is that a Gold Tone that you are playing? It sounds really great. Thanks again,,,,,, Ray

Yes, please! I need to see shapes of chords to really understand this, and really, really want to understand this! Can you post some diagrams? Thanks for the cool video, it's really enjoyable and inspiring.

Great tutorial!

Can you add some chord diagrams or another video which shows your left hand so we can determine the shapes.
