Started out with the Emmons setup. Then I bought a steel that had the Day setup. Been playing that way ever since. It feels more natural to me but to each his own.

| Myself and Bobby Garrett both had our first pedal steels set up like Emmons. I still have the Emmons set up. Bobby used the Emmons set up his entire career. Jody. |

I voted Emmons, but I'm really playing the Shobud setup.

I'm not sure what to call my set up. The pedals are Emmons with a PF pedal at#4 but my E changes are on the right knee. It came that way on my first MSA & it works for me.

| Emmons ABC pedal setup. But like Bo, E->Eb on the right knee - RKL. I guess that's the standard "Sho Bud" setup? I switched from LKR when I started playing a lot of universal. I've gotten to the point where I can't live without the smooth F->Eb change obtained by smoothly feathering in the E-Eb as I let up on F->E. |

| I play an emmons set up but, i find myself sometimes playing some a-b licks on b-c pedals and it seems natural to roll the ankle that direction - i am seriously considering switching to a day set up before i get to far along in the learning process. |

| Emmons ABC but I, too, have always played and really must have the "Sho-Bud" lever setup with E lowers on RKL for that smooth transition between the raise and lower. |

I use the Day setup on the floor pedals, but I basically put my knee lever changes wherever I could when I felt I needed them, so they are kind of unorthodox.
