Banjotuning I tune my banjos in my own way. Tenor is a bit to sharp for me and I don´t play plectrum. So I have shifted the C(wound) and D(plain) strings. The tuning and stringauge is from 4.th C(0.16(plain) G(0.18 wound) D (0.28 wound) and A (0.08 plain). That gives me the sound I like. I use Oettinger tailpiece to aadjust tensionand dynamics.
