Robert Schaefer played an extended eharp tuning on a 14 string sierra with 8 pedals and 5 knee levers. I've been playing eharp on a lap steel and am thinking about Robert's set up and I'm intrigued since I love the eharp tuning and am curious what could be done in this kind of set up.

Forumite Duane Sulley passed on some of Robert's writings on the eharp in general and his setup with copedant but I've never actually heard any recordings of him playing.

I've located a 14 string sierra and am thinking of giving it a shot.

Any and all thoughts recordings, suggestions, warnings, are all welcome.

yeah Erv, I'm afraid I'm headed into uncharted waters with only an old faded map to lead the way.

Just the way I like it. Smile
