Mike Ihde's "A Different Slant" is a great collection of tunes arranged for Lapsteel Leavitt tuning.
With Mike's permission, I have taken his arrangement of 'When You Wish Upon A Star', and transposed it for E9th PSG.
The symbols used are
A standard
A* half pedal
B standard
D lower 2
E lower 4, 8
F raise 4, 8
V raise 1, 7

I did the tab in Excel, but there doesnt seem to be any way to copy from that into Notepad & carry across the TAB lines .
So, I have improvised. This is what I did
1) In Excel, 'print preview'
2) 'print scrn'.
3) paste the buffer into an image editor
4) crop the image
5) saved each page as a JPG
6) upload pages to my Web site.

I hope the end result is legible and printable for those who want to try it out. It was fun to do anyway .
If anyone would like the original spreadsheet (easier to print), email me and I'll send it.

I've edited this a bit to make it easier to play and hopefully it should now be easier to read/print. Here's the link

I have edited the tab once again and now its easy enough (just) for me to play, so I have added a sound clip. Half way through I added a bit of lapsteel just for fun
