Here's a tutorial of a great tune from one of my favorite albums: "El Muerto Se Fue De Rumba" by Quinteto Los Guanches from 1996.

The Tresero is Carlos Elis Avila who is an incredibly dynamic modern player, yet he manages to balance that with distinct rural vibe that makes him really unique.

Carlos Elis Avila tunes to C (GCE) however on this recording the whole group is tuned well above standard.  If you set your tuner to 447hz it should get you in the ballpark.
For the tutorial I am tuned to C (GCE) at normal 440hz.

In the video I'm playing my Taylor GS Mini Tres.  For more on that click here:

The string guages I'm using are:
G10/24 C16/16 E11/11

I transcribe all of the songs for my tutorials myself so I don't have the tablature for any of them.

My channel is not monetized, so I do not make money from my videos.  If there are ads running on this video it's  because the content is copyrighted and the owner of that copyright is receiving the revenue from the video views.

The song at the end of the video is the classic tune ‘El Reloj De Pastora’ played by the incredible ‘Septeto Trio Los Dos’ who have graciously given me permission to use.

I make and sell Tres Cubano Conversion Kits for Baby Taylor Guitars.  The kit can be installed in under 30 minutes with no luthier experience required.  They cost $200 (USD) with free shipping worldwide.
You supply the Baby Taylor and I send you everything you need to turn it into a great sounding Cuban Tres.
