For the ukulele enthusiast with an interest in acoustic guitar, and vice versa, the Kala Solid Spruce Tenor Guitar is the perfect place to start. Our Tenor Guitar is shorter and lighter than traditional tenor guitars, making it suitable for children and players with smaller hands and fingers, as well as for fingerpicking or strumming. The Solid Spruce top and Pau Ferro back and sides pair to give it a bold contrast in appearance and a crisp, rich tone. The standard tuning is CGDA, but it holds alternate tunings and open tunings just as well. Each Tenor Guitar comes in a gig bag.
The Tenor Guitar as an instrument has an eclectic and storied past as a specialty 4-string guitar in the bluegrass and folk genres. Popular contemporary players like Warren Ellis and Neko Case have helped to keep this instrument in the public eye.

- DGDennis G.Verified BuyerRated 4 out of 5 stars3 years agoJust purchased tenor guitar blem
It took a while to find the blem, but for the price it wouldn't have mattered if it had paint spatters! The reason for four stars is the sound is a little thin. That being said I didn't expect it to sound like a much more expensive Blueridge. All in all, very satisfied.

Don’t let the small size fool you, this tenor guitar has plenty of tone thanks to the solid top. You will definitely be heard!
