If you lean toward the Irish, there is a wealth of material for tenor banjo that translates note-for-note to the TG. I got started on the Tbanjo (coming from mandolin) by listening to Seamus Egan (that would be the Oregon Seamus Egan). His CD "In Your Ear" is a dandy. These days, every time I see Seamus, he's playing a tenor guitar...you'll hear some on the recording.
Oh, it is fast, but learn the tunes and soon comes the velocity.
Do you know about www.thesession.org? There is a huge archive of tunes in several formats for you to while away your time.
Slainte!
