thanks Lane. if i could only play it. but i tell ya, i dont know if its the pickups or guitar or what but it has got tone out the wazoo. it sounds like something other than a shobud. its got growl.. must be the telonics pickup. and the pedals and levers are all real tight. and it stays in tune. Bill, you da man! three of the pedals are a little smaller than the first three, so he put spacers in to line up the rods. beautiful williams undercarriage. too bad i cant do on it what its capable of. |

lets see if i can remember.. pedal one is 1 and 2 raise
pedal two thru 4 is std e9
pedal 5 is franklin pedal
pedal six raises 9 and 7 to e and g#
lkl raises e
lkv drops 5 and 10 1/2 tone
lkr lowers e
rkl raises 1 and drops 6 , both a whole tone
rkr drops 2 and 9
i think. this is tentative, for i am always searching for my next best lick and dont mind robbing peter to pay paul. |

Tony,
That is truly one of the most beautiful steels I have ever seen. Brings real meaning to the words "eye candy".
The cool thing is that it plays and sounds great as well.
Congratulations on a job very well done.

Wow. I do the same thing with my "zero" pedal. Nice to be able to get those strummable chords on the lower strings without having to jump over strings.
And once again. Oh my.
I need to download that photo and add it to my collection. Too gorgeous. Don't bring it anywhere around me and turn your back. Your blue beauty and I may just have to run away to Barbados. _________________ Carter D10 8p/8k, Dekley S10 3p/4k C6 setup,Regal RD40 Dobro, Recording King Professional Dobro, NV400, NV112,Ibanez Gio guitar, Epiphone SG Special (open D slide guitar) .
