On the Jeffran Website, Jeff's S-12U tuning chart shows only 4 knee levers, but Jeff had a vertical knee lever on his personal guitar.
Does someone know what his LKV does? Smile

Charlie, Jeff's LKR is his E lever. There is a wide gap between LKL & LKR and his LKV is quite long.

On Jeff's tuning charts, the E9/B6 has four levers, with the X lever being the long vertical. This tuning has no LKR in order to make it easy to move your left leg over to the B6 pedals.
Here
He did have guitars with the long vertical and an LKR as well, but I'm just referring to the chart.
We are now approaching the fourth anniversary of Jeff's tragic death. A sad loss indeed.
