string, 3, Dixieland, Tenor, Texas

3 String Homemade CANJO...Cookie Tin Tenor Banjo....Tuned to D-G-B (think of it as Chicago Tenor Tuning withoutthe high E string on the bottom)...Chicago Tuning just means you're tuning a 4 String TenorBanjo as if it was a Guitar... since I made this a 3 StringCanjo I decided to do without the high E string...Maybe not true Dixieland, but I think it capture a lot of the spirit and fun of a Tenor Banjo Dixieland style rhythm...Nothing Fancy Here ....

Very good. I use DGB tuning quite a lot. Sounded both Dixieland and a bit rocking to me. Did sound banjo like.
