I usually supply tenor guitars tuned to G D A E, which is now much more common than the traditional tuning of C G D A. Tenor guitars can be supplied with spruce or mahogany tops.
I make all my guitars to my own designs, they are not exact copies of any factory-produced instruments. They have sound boards of spruce or redwood cedar. The back, sides and the neck are made of mahogany, are stained and finished to a dark wood colour. Fingerboards, bridges and headstock veneer are made of rosewood.
