I took the amp out of mine and put it in its own box, it was the only way……

I too am late to the party on this one...

I am not in USA, consequently the pickings here are slim and if available, expensive.

You can buy a knee lever flag from Bob at GFI. The flag is standard on one knee lever of a D-10. Slides on your knee lever and is held by two set screws.

Wow… thanks… ...

GFI should be able to sell you a knee lever flag for your lkl. You tried changing the angle on the lever have you? I find it is more comfortable facing inwards.

sureâ€¦ can I ask, what a "flag" is..?

Anybody replaced knee levers on a GFIâ€¦?

I have had a GFI Expo for a few months now, long enough to know that i really, really, really, really, really don't like the way the LKL digs into my ...

Any Ham Radio swap meets in Oz? Great for parts, and old chassis that might have the pot you're looking for. I used to get great tubes and parts at swap meets!

I have a spare Allen Bradley type J 500k pot (new). You can open them, clean them, lube them etc. etc. and they go a long time if you look after them.

About 1 player in 4 has his A pedal (B to C#) on the right. It's called the "Day setup" after legendary steeler Jimmy Day who was the first to do it.

There you go…!

Thanks for that ...

Hold on there Stuart... I'm just starting my six-string project PSG build. I've done a pile of reading into various tuning options, the more I read, the more confused I get. Check out the Hudson 6-str ...

For communicating with this audience, you should probably call your 1st pedal (G# to A) the "B pedal", and your second pedal (B to C#) your "A pedal". I know it sounds counter-i ...

Stuart, it's a subset of my S-8 Desert Rose copedent, which you can access from my signature below. The string gauges are there as well.

I've found b0b has great ideas on getting the most out of tunings.

which gets to my answer to the OP, maybe you could look at it as a lap

It's pretty powerful. I look at what the dobro guys can do with G major, and then what blues guys do with the top 4 strings of E major. This tuning has D major in the same intervals as E major for b ...

FWIW, here's how I would tune it:
P1 P2 K
D
A ++B
F# +G
D
B
G ---E

Pedals down gives you an open G.

wow..! didn't see that coming...
