I think they were originally intended for transition for players from banjo to guitar (around 1930's) and were also used for jazz, country and folk music over the years, often played alongside regular guitars...they can be tuned like a plectrum banjo (CGDA or CGBD) or like a regular guitar-DGBE, or with the higher tenor guitar tuning GCEA
There are some young players currently using these instruments for Americana/folk/blues etc..
