I bought an Amigo Tenor Uke (AMT 8) years ago, put it away in storage, and just now pulled it out. It has nylon strings on the 1st and 4th strings and wound ones on the 2nd and 3rd.
I've tuned it like regular C-tuning but the middle strings are one octave lower. So, to use South Coast Uke's chart, this uke is tuned g'cea', rather than the standard g’ c’ e’ a’.
Its sound is unusual, yet beautiful. Since the strings are rather old (the wounds are in terrible shape), I'd like to restring it, but using a similar tuning.
Anyone got any light to shine on this?
