This is on my Mullen D-10 (8+6). Any suggestions for improvement would be appreciated.

If you want the notes to line up under their respective pedal/lever names, you have to type tab between square brackets [ ] at the top of your chart (before P1), and /tab between square brackets at the bottom (after A#). This will preserve their placement where you typed them.

(You don't have to use red!)

I like raising the 7th string a whole tone as opposed to lowering the 6th string a whole tone. Lots more versatile but it's a tradeoff. I also get a lot of mileage off of lowering the 10th string a whole tone and using it as a drone for rhythm vamps.

Some tabs for these are here:

and here:

and see "Tab 657 - Versatile turnaround featuring E9th 7th string whole tone raise and 9th string lower and split tuning! " on this page:

You will get a zillion recommendations. Unlike Greg, I prefer the G# to F# lower on 6 over the F# to G# on 7. I had a Williams with both, and put the 7th string raise to G# also on my Carter. I almost never used the 7th raise. Greg uses it very nicely. I have had the G# to F# lower for over 40 years, and I wouldn't own a guitar without it. I like all the melodic movements you can get on string 6 between the F# and the A notes you can get between the lever and B pedal that you can't get with the 7th string. I may give the 7th string raise to G# on my 1st pedal, which I don't use now.

To be more clear, you would have to re-do the chart. Just putting tab and /tab around it as it is now won't fix it.

A little more legible.

Looks normal enough and fine to me. The only thing I might change, if I didn't have a half-stop hardware on string 2, is to lower D# to D instead of lowering it to C#. That would be old-school.

He has another thread on the C6

Cris... I bumped his C6 thread to the top. But here is the link anyway.
