I'm ordering a new Mullen G-2 and I'm Taking a chance on putting the Franklin Change (strings 5 6 & 10 lowered full step) on Pedal 1. Since Ive never used this change before I was wondering what your opinions of this position for the pedal.. Some people told me it was easier to use in pedal one position than in the 4th pedal position. I use Standad Emmons Setup. I'm just afraid it will get in the way with my 2nd pedal changes when I raise the B to C# together with the Knee LKL to raise 4 string E to F .
Also How do you use this change effectively in a song?
Thanks,
JR_________. |

P1 is where mine is. I had it on P4 but found it was easier to jump to P1 from B C than it was to jump to P4 from A B.
I hope that makes sense.
It does feel different on P1. You might need to adjust your seat to keep from getting into your LKR when you go to the B C position.

Just a point to remember, if you put it in position 1, then you may have to move your Left knee cluster over a bit since your ABC pedals will be further to the right!! Not a problem if your having a new guitar built but it could be if your doing an add on!
I have mine in position 4 with no C6th pulls on it... I moved my whole C6th setup one step to the right by adding a 9th pedal which works real good for me!

i ordered mine in postion 1 (or 0 as others call it)
i moved it over to 4 for the reasons Paddy mentions

so i bounce back from 1 to 4 & 1 |

On my Carter D10, I added, after receiving the guitar) pedal 0 (zero) and have the change on there. I play the Day setup and have no problems jumping to the pedal from any where.
I ordered my new Williams already set up this way and have no problems there either. |
