Is there any reason why the root D string raise and lower is on the left knee rather than the right? |

Are you talking about my D13TH tuning? _________________ Johnny "Dumplin" Cox

It's that way because I use the same levers on E9th tuning and on C6th I lower my C on LKL. _________________ Johnny "Dumplin" Cox

Thanks Johnny, I am new to pedal steel and I want to learn on an E13 version of your copendent from the beginning. As a novice, it seems the logical place for the e9 to c6 lever would be on the LKR so it would be engaged when my foot moves over to play the c6th pedals. |

It's important to keep the RKR where it is on my chart. The tuning revolves around it and where it is placed. Most players today have the E raises and lowers on the left leg. _________________ Johnny "Dumplin" Cox
