I pull the free end of the string around the string in tension

My guess is you would pay a premium for "water resistance".
In the US I do not see used Blueridge guitars with cheap asking
prices, and most of them are 40 models.
I don't know anything about...
Though I do not play violin, I have been happy with the sound
of violins using the LR Baggs bridge pickup. That pickup is best
used with a high impedance active DI or preamp. I use the
Tonebone...
Many of the camps and festivals are a little bit expensive. Here is one option.
The Walnut Valley Festival September 14-18, 2022
is a good experience. It is 5 days of bluegrass (no jazz) and...
That is an inspiration.
Drywall screws are so handy. Use them everywhere.
Is this the style called "steam punk"?
Thank you for the report.

Vintage Madolin Napoli
"Vintage beautiful Italian mandolin 1940s sounds amazing plays perfectly.
Comes with original hard shell case."
The ports in the side are an interesting feature....
Some of the features seen on old instruments are interesting.
The obvious feature here is the fret board extending across the
sound hole. If I see it right there are 25 frets for the E-string....
I find that entertaining. I can understand how this musician
got 7 million subscribers on youtube.
I don't have the experience to know why one would want to play
slide on a tenor guitar, but I would not want to discourage it.
A search suggests D F# A D which they call "open D" would be good,...
This forum doesn't seem wrong for the question.
There is a tenor guitar forum, but it doesn't get a
lot of traffic. Here are a few threads from there.

I have not had trouble using D'Addario EJ66 (0.010, 0.014, 0.022w, 0.032w)

I suggest you start with this information.

I once was lost, but now I am found.
If I understand your question you are tuned GDAE one octave
lower than violin. From where you are now to get CGDA you
go up 7 steps. I think you need...
Though I am not an expert I think the issue is not total tension,
but the tension on the E string. Your calculator tells us the string
tension for 0.008 string tuned to E5 is 20.7 lbs. Notice it...
It appears this mandolin has stories to tell. It has served faithfully,
and now it is being rehomed on craigslist.

Here is my opinion. I am still a beginner. You have more skills
than I do. You can weight my comments with that.

I like it. Thank you for recording and posting it here.
Though I have no experience with the Gibson, I think it has about 22 3/4 inch
scale. I recently had a luthier set up an inexpensive Recording King with 23 inch

Since you want electric and don't care about tone, you could
make fabrication go much quicker by starting with a piece of
