Universal Teaching Materials

Post by William Carter »

Wondering if anybody knows of some good books/websites/youtube links for learning Jeff Newman tuning E9/B6. I got one coming soon and have never touched anything like it before.

All existing E9 and C6 materials are applicable.
That's the point of a universal tuning, or so it seems to me.

Even if you aspire to the "one big tuning" notion, whatever you play will have elements of both.

I realise that I haven't answered your question, but I've never felt the need of an answer :)

Read E9 tab from the top down - same key tab is written in
Read C6 tab from the bottom up - and realize you are in B6 no pedals - open - with 4 & 8 lowered

Joe Wright and Jeff Newman both have E9/B6 Courses listed on their websites.

I think Joe gives Skype lessons.

I am a Jeff Newman style Uni player.
If you PM me I would be glad to offer some Uni info over the phone.

What kind of S12U are you getting?
What are some songs that you want to play?

Back when I had ordered my Mullen SD12 and was deciding whether I wanted to play uni or extended Emmons E9 these courses were very helpful ;-)
Hear my latest album, "Celestial" featuring a combination of Mullen SD12 and Synthesizers:

Hear my album, "Armistice" featuring Fender 400 on every song:

Hear my Pedal Steel Only playlist featuring Mullen G2 SD12 on covers like Candyman, Wild Horses, Across the Universe & more...
