I was wondering if there was a note one could pick on C6 that would substitute for the F knee lever that Buddy Emmons talks about on his C6 course.I do not have that particular lever on my guitar . Tommy

Yes. The analogous lever on C6 is the one that raises the 3rd and 7th strings from C to C#. Just as the F lever does on E9 (by raising E's to F's), this lever on C6 allows you to get another major chord position 3 frets above the open position. For example, you have an F major chord at the 5th fret (with root on strings 10, 7 or 3) and another F major three frets higher on the 8th fret with the C-to-C# KL engaged and now the root is on the 8th and 4th strings.
