.052w .036w .026w .014p
The strings are tuned to C G D A, the same pitch and tuning as the viola. Sometimes the tuning D A E B is used, but the scale length is too long for this instrument to be tuned the same as the mandolin.
Long Scale Tenor Mandola
Scale length 460mm.
String gauges used 050w .032w .022w .013p
The longer scale length of this instrument gives it a bigger, fuller sound than the stand-ard tenor mandola.
