Terrific demo and an introduction to tunings, all in 5 minutes!

Hobgoblin Bristol The Tenor Guitar is actually a hybrid instrument, basically a Tenor Banjo neck on a Guitar body. These were developed around the 1920s during the "Transition Period from Banjo to Guitar".

[@HobgoblinBristol]

Yes. We know!

[@robinleebraun7739]

I have built a few of these. I prefer Chicago tuning. I made a baritone tenor tuned lower (A, D, G, B).

[@MMauricette]

Excellent tenor guitar review. I love tenor guitars and I'm waiting for my Ashbury AT-24 on back order from Hoblegoblin in USA. I can't wait.

[@hopefulhyena3400]

Very good.

[@beatriced8184]

I really like the Ashbury model

[@jojaferg]

Which model is the first tenor you played? The body seemed larger than a lot of tenors offered, with exception of goldtone and blueridge. Big sound!

[@andyduckering8731]

Is there much of a size difference in the body compared to a conventional acoustic?

[@corriecrazy]

Lovely instruments! Have you ever tuned them to DGBE, as on a baritone uke?

[@HobgoblinBristol]

It works ! See Vox Quod above...

[@gezdaring574]

Was that last tune a Richard Thompson lick or did it just sound like that coz DADGAD?

[@HobgoblinBristol]

No, it's Chris' arrangement of Cropper Lads.

[@jonbees3856]

Only 5 likes what's up with everyone?!

[@ruairidhbuxton2245]

Do you sell left handed ones as I can't find anything on your website? But it says in the video that the Lindisfarne one comes in left handed too.

[@HobgoblinBristol]

Hi there, as of 26/9/22 there are 3 L/H Lindisfarnes in the company. We have one here in Bristol.
