Does anyone know of a manufacturer that will make a single neck C6 with offset pedals?

I use the Henriksen Bud for solo, band & recording gigs. A GFI Ultra pedal steel (C6) thru a Line 6 Amplifi FX 100 lets me tune my sounds (via iPad). The amp is super quiet & with the extension speaker gives over 200 watts RMS. The 5 band EQ is amazing as a start point for any room... http:/...

G'day I have a GFI Ultra (D-10, 8 Pedals, 5 levers) about 5 years old. (Keyless tuners have caused a bit of concern when a tuning cradle snapped off) - I wonder if I have to remove the whole E9 neck to fix this, GFI sent me the part really quickly. The other issue is the pickups - they are standard ...

I understand the issue, especially when the band is really swingin'. My approach is to take my foot off the swell (volume) pedal and only use it sparingly - typically fills behind the vocalist in slower songs. I use my picking attack (fingers, no strings) to attain required levels... To each his own...
