Hey Bob, it was similar to a standard E9 except the B string usually in the 5th slot was on string 6 and there was a C# string for number 5. High to low it was: F# D# G# E C# B G# F# E D B E.

The A pedal raised strings 6 and 11 B to C#

Pedal B raised strings 3 and 7 G# to A

Pedal C raised string 4 E to F# and string 6 B to C#.

LKL raised strings 4 and 9 E to F

LKR lowered strings 4 and 9 E to D#

I'm not sure what RKL and RKR did but, one of them lowered the 2nd string and 10th string and one of them lowered the 7th string G# to F#.

I don't remember whether he had a verticle knee lever or not but at times he lowered his B strings a half tone. I believe you can find a copy of it in the Winnie Winston/Bill Keith book!..........JH in Va.
