| Not a great picture but I would wager a guess that it is a double lower, triple raise. As always I could be wrong, but I see 10 Raises, and 4 Lowers. Thanks | |

| Do you know the year of the sierra? Double raise, triple lower?

| Most amps have a headphone out so you can sort of simulate playing live. I mean you get to use the volume pedal and the effects, but you don't get the room. | |
