I use RKL. The old Sho-Bud configuration on my Carter U12.
And the reason is because if I need p5 and p7, the right foot can come into play without too much movement.

A 13th shell chord is 9 6 5 with A pedal.

I have a uni 12 string, E9/B6. And I was astounded at how easy the 6th tuning is when it's tuned to B.
All the chords are in the same position as E9th.

If you play strings 5,6,8,9 with the 9th string lowered to C# and the 8th string raised to F, this will be at the open fret a C#7 in a root inversion. So the notes are C#,F, G#, and B. Or 1, 3, 5, 7. ...
