Ezra Traditional Tenor Guitar Deluxe
Story
Having evolved as a natural extension of the tenor banjo in the 1920s (read more about their fascinating history here), the tenor guitar quickly found its own identity, prized for its compact feel and effortless playability. Inspired by those sought-after vintage instruments, the Ezra Traditional Tenor brings that unmistakable experience into the modern era.
Sharing the same premium all-solid Sitka spruce top, solid mahogany back and sides, ebony fretboard, and comfortable Grand Auditorium body as the Ezra Tenor Deluxe, the Traditional simply offers a different playing experience. Its slimmer neck with a 1¼" nut width, narrower 1⅜" bridge string spacing, and standard CGDA tuning recreate the compact feel that banjo players embraced as they made the transition to tenor guitar, and that generations of tenor enthusiasts have continued to love ever since.
A premium onboard pickup system delivers a natural amplified voice, with discreet soundhole-mounted controls for volume, EQ, and phase that preserve the instrument's clean acoustic appearance. Complete with a custom-fitted hardshell case, the Ezra Traditional Tenor pairs vintage-inspired ergonomics with the craftsmanship, reliability, and performance expected from a modern professional instrument.
