@jvw @benda The original tenors were actually banjo necks attached to small guitar bodies as I understand it. So they are WAY too narrow for me, but mostly because of my terrible mechanics. I’m pretty heavy on my left hand, and continually pulled the E off the edge of the board. So I had my guy base the width off my bari uke and it works like a charm.
As for tuning, I use d g b e - just a guitar sans two bass strings. Works for me.
