yes its a pedal steel but really only holding down on one pedal is all. 10 strings are hard to make a slant work. basic E6th tuning here the 9th string on my guitar is pulled to a B if you have a 8 string lap just tune your 8th string up to a B. the other B in the tuning is lowered to a Bb also by this pedal for this one if you have a lap you will have to use your tilt. the tuning is for my guitar F#,G#,E,C#,B,G#,E,C#,A,E now if you have a 8 string lap it will be the same from the 2nd string to the 9th G#,E,C#,B,G#,E,C#,A, again for this tune bring your 8th up to a B

I could be wrong, but I thought "I'm So Lonesome" was Jerry Byrd, not Don Helms.

I would like to find a source on what Jerry played on would help find that right tuning for what Im looking for, as of now I am E6th. everyone here knows I am the steel player for David Church he does 80% hank stuff and does the best job on it
