In my lifelong pursuit to accumulate musical instruments I can barely play, Royall came to my attention - they import a metal bodied, pear shaped single cone tenor resonator.
Maybe 20 years ago I was at a small guitar show where a one table dealer was languidly playing slide blues on a 20’s National tricone pear shaped tenor. I was completely captivated. I’ve looked at them a few times since, but the price of admission has always been waaaay more than I can justify.
Royall finally had a resupply, so I somewhat impulsively grabbed one that should be here next week.
Any tenor players here? I have no idea where to start with tuning for slide on one of these.
