In an earlier post I complained about my playing out of tune when I was hitting the pedals , well my problem was the pedals were not adjusted to my fitment ,after adjusting my A pedal up a bit I am happy to announce that I can hit that pedal and stay in tune , same goes with knee levers after I added some extensions the levers do not hurt my knees , darn it im good to go. still working on scales trying to play them smooth and cool , I found Beginner Notes on the forum here and Im working on a double octave scale I believe its number 29 or 30 anyways whoever posted the beginner notes I want to say thanks because I know all the music is in those scales and modes, just blowin hot air here. and the harmonized scales are great. I can even make up little melodies with these scales, how cool is that .

Sounds great Russell! One other thing that might help if you verify that the timing is good on the changes- that is- when you put your foot on the A pedal that string #'s 5 and 10 start together or else one will go slightly out of tune by just the weight of your foot resting on the pedal.
