I'm new to the forum and don't know if the answer is already out there but I haven't seen it, and in case anyone else hasn't and wanted to know how to tune a tenor uke to linear DGBE tuning instead of dGBE tuning, guilele or guitalele strings work for me.
I don't enjoy playing instruments larger than guilele but want to play electric guitar songs. For now I'm using my Cordoba 20tm-ce as a 4 string electric until I buy an electric guitalele.
The uke is basically the same size as my Cordoba guilele (Pic attached).
The guilele doesn't have a truss rod so I hoped that the uke could hold its strings. So far so good
I have an extra set of guilele strings, Aquila Red E-E. I don't know the gauge but ukulele Reds are pretty fat. The guilele Red is wound and on the thin side.
My tenor is strung: Aquila Red guilele- D
D'addario classical guitar- G
Freemont blackline bari-tuned tenor- B & E
It sounds great tuned this way.
