Note gets yours truly renown (4)
I believe the answer is:
fame
'renown' is the definition.
('fame' can be a synonym of 'renown')
'note gets yours truly' is the wordplay.
'note' becomes 'fa' (fourth note in sol-fa notation: doh, ray, me...**).
'gets' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'yours truly' becomes 'me'.
'fa'+'me'='FAME'
(Other definitions for fame that I've seen before include "Musical - stardom" , "Repute" , "''... is the spur that the clear spirit doth raise (Lycidas, John Milton)" , "Renown, celebrity" , "Note" .)
