What Are Plectrum Guitars? The plectrum guitar is a close four stringed relative of the tenor guitar with a scale length of 26-27 inches and tunings that are usually based on the plectrum banjo - CGBD or DGBD. Plectrum guitars are very suitable for guitar tuning - DGBE, 'octave mandolin' tuning - GDAE and even a re-entrant CGDA tuning, which has the D and A strings tuned down a whole octave - because of their longer scale length but are unsuitable for non-re-entrant CGDA tuning because of the high A string. Plectrum guitars were not made in as large numbers as tenor guitars and are now rarer than tenor guitars.
