Easier to just slide your seat to the left or right, depending on if it's sharp or flat !

Bill....I see you are fairly new to the forum and maybe have some problems in tuning a steel guitar.
A forum search might help you out a lot.This topic has come up a lot of times.
Do a search using the words "tuning" or "Tuning the E9th neck".
8 Pedals and 5 knee levers will set you up for life and is enough to do road-work and or gigs.
The open slot's are for 2 extra pedals.Some players favor 1 or 2 extra on their steel guitar...making it a 9 or 10 pedal and ? kneelever guitar.
If you have any questions about tuning a guitar shoot me a PM through the forum with your e-mail address and I will get you on your way.Make sure you mention what brand guitar you have.

I was just kidding! I really can and do tune my own steel. My kids are married and moved away, and I did not get a new steel for Christmas; darn it! I'm still looking for a new pedal steel.
A picking buddy and I were discussing the record of the Statler Brothers', Roadhog and The Cadilac Cowboys, and we tried to imagine Roadhogs' steel picker, if he had had one, getting a new guitar for Christmas.
The folks on this forum are without a doubt some of the best people to be found. I have read your replies and some are very funny. The people who tried to help a bumbling idiot like me; and without hurting my feelings, I might add, show what caring and thoughtful people you are.
Please don't kick me off the forum! I promise to be good from here on!
