This gigbag fits my Gretsch Electromatic Junior Jet bass perfectly, as well. None of that "tight at the headstock" stuff, either.

Update on my post above: This gigbag will fit a Bronco perfectly: http://www.finecases.com/browse/guardian-cases/guardian-cases-4194.html It's cheap, too!

Here's a suggestion: http://www.finecases.com/browse/guardian-cases/guardian-cases-4194.html I've been eyeing one of these for my Bronco.

Though traditional technique involves "octave" playing, single note playing works quite well on a guitarron, especially in a bluegrass, country, or folk setting. I've played rockabilly, reggae, and even jazz with mine.

The guitarron is no stranger to country music. Mariachi bands have been covering old-time fiddle tunes (like Orange Blossom Special) for decades.

At first glance, the traditional guitarron does indeed appear to be tuned much like a standard 6-string guitar. The notes ADGCEA have the same relationship to each other as EADGBE. They are both tuned to ascending perfect fourths, with an exception between third and second strings, which is a...
