I received a lovely Stella tenor guitar this morning (thanks to Jake Wildwood who repair wonderful vintage instruments) and i thought i'd give it a try and play a little Blues i made up on the spot after watching my Blues calendar behind me...

  • Is that a CGDA tuning?

  • @123blubull No i tuned to double octave tuning (DADA or DGDG i don't remember)

  • Hey there! I'm glad you were the one to get this tenor -- you're giving it the best home (and music) I think it possibly could have. Definitely seems happy in your hands. :) Jake

  • I'm definetely happy to have it in my hands, such a versatile instrument... Can play Blues, bottleneck, old-time fiddle tunes, folk songs, old jazz tunes, well, everything i love to play seems to fit... Thanks again, Jake.

  • i love this!!

  • You're great in blues! THX :)

  • What kind of strings do you use on your tenor? I use DADA tuning and Chicago too. Haven't found strings I am happy with. I have an old Gibson tenor and want to do more with it. Great stuff here and you Wildwood Flower post , too. Jim

  • Excellent!

  • This is definitely among the best of all the performances you've posted. You seized the music at that natural, nascent, spontaneous stage where nothing is forced and the scent of the muse still lingers. Some musicians go their whole lives without ever capturing such moments on tape. Thanks for posting this!

  • nice singing too!

  • Luv this kinda stuff. Sounds so eerie.

  • That was perfect! Great phrasing (vox & playing)
