I was talking to Tommy White last week. He only raises string 4 A to Bb. I have always raised 4&8 to get a big 7th chord across the board. Tommy said he really doesn't use that change for a 7th chord and there are other ways get a 7th chord but we didn't have time to explore that. Any thoughts?


thx

bob

CrowBear's V7 chord example with the knee lever (raising four and not eight)...

Fret 10 pedal 5:you get a b13 but also a 5th on the bottom.

Fret 7 pedal 6: you get an 11 but also a third on the bottom. This one I find most handy.

Fret 3: a b9 but also the 1.

I've had guitars set up both ways. Not really sure which I prefer...

I'm still confused. He said "raise" string 3 E to Eb?

At fret 3, string 3 is an Eb. Raise it to E for a major third.

Right

That assumes you have that change Smile Which TW doesn't.

Right, neither do I. You still get the same chord by using other strings though. Eight, seven, six and five give you the 1, 3, 5, b7.

I just added that C to C# on my shobud. It came on my Mullen, and after hearing it, had to have it on my Bud. Real nice change and handy. Don't ask me what chords I can get with it, it would take me a couple hours to figure them out. Oh Well All I know is their real purty! Smile

I have it on my Crawford guitar and really like it w/ ped 6 to add a nice augmented 5th
