al perkins E7
anyone know his copedant?
It is, but may have varied a bit. from an email Al sent me a couple years ago:
There ya' go!The 1000 I had was an 8 stg E7th & C6th tuning.
On the E7th, I used a high G# on the 1st string, followed by the E, B, G# etc. My lowest stg was an E. I used the std Jimmy Day ABC foot pedal configuration and two home made knee levers. LKL lowered the top E stg and seems like I may have either lowered the B or raised the E with a RKR.
No chops, but great tone
