Very cool. I have a black Warren Ellis electric tenor guitar and I love it. Tenor guitars are my sweet spot and I play rock, reggae, pop, R&B, etc., in Chicago tuning. I wish more musicians were aware about Tenor guitars becaue it could be another solution to especially the 90% of beginners who quit learning guitar in the first 3 months to 1 year.

[@SuzanneNuttall]

I love what you created with it! Sweet instrument. I want one!

[@marks9197]

Great demo. Loved the song!

[@davidwwarren5639]

Just Got my Warren Ellis Tenor.....so beautiful!

[@davidwwarren5639]

mine is a single pick-up model

[@travisguide4516]

Fun riffs I like it's tone alot

[@kenmcf]

Your mind is so clear.

[@Isosceles1]

Sweet. Looks kind of like a Fender Mustang.

[@mayo_mix]

Man this is the gRoOvE

[@redcomn]

I buy this slam korg miku and boss synth pedal with ambient reverb

[@nankypooh655]

I checked this out because I have an Eastwood Astrojet that I can't play because the neck is too small, and the frets are too close. I was told that I should investigate the Warren Ellis model. The neck looks wider, and the frets look more spaced, but what does it sound like totally distorted, and what's a ball park figure these go for?

[@dogfacedboy6947]

King Crimson Meister Robert Fripp has been playing a fifths-based tuning for over 30 years now. He sets up a regular guitar to be C G D A E G, low to high. The top string is a flyer, but the low five are in a standard 5ths tuning. As are violins, mandolins, violas, mandocelloes, octave mandolins, etc. This DOES lead you down different paths. If you got more guitars than money, well....

[@robertwilliams332]

Interesting to note Warren only specified one pickup. The Humbucker was added for commercial purposes.

[@patrickbuzzo1970]

Are they Belcat pick ups ? That's what my luthier thinks. I have added a Seymour Duncan Minibucker Seymourized on my tenorbaritone, with a splitter switch, sounds great !

[@wadomannen]

Fantastisk

[@whatwedointheshadows3349]

if those had an offset trem i would have bought one years ago.

[@bigmazinthedesert]

what we do in the shadows if you wanna design a 4 string mustang style trem go ahead I’m sure they would use it yk

[@buddyholly9960]

I'm right-handed and I play left-handed I have this in left-handed I painted mine blue and kept the pick guard red I play lots of Kurt Cobain stuff style on mine

[@patrickbuzzo1970]

Buddyholly, you are like Jimi Hendrix, he was right handed ( see when he was signing autographs) , but he was playing like a lefty, .....with a right handed Stratocaster with left handed strings..... 👍🎸

[@patrickbuzzo1970]

Can you make a video of yours?

[@davidwwarren5639]

CGDA?

[@leonardokinanahan5869]

Is it tuned and played like a uke

[@SHEAALASIZZLE]

im wonderin that also

[@alexchancock]

He's the guy in a David Lynch series you think killed the girl but is just plain odd

[@RenzoTocador]

tunning?????

[@MMauricette]

It's probablytuned DGBE like the 4 bottom strings of a guitar but some musicians tune tenor guitars differently.

[@TotallyNuss]

Wow, that's one pricey Chinese built guitar. Baffling.

[@henrikpetersson3463]

Yeah, Eastwood put quite a margin on their guitars. To be fair though, they make quite a lot of odd instruments that probably aren't sold in huge quantities so it makes sense that they have to price them higher.
