How about
11P8/10/9A/7/5LKL all open
If you want a solution without double-footing, you're on yer own

I guess that depends on exactly what is the Reece Anderson Bb6 tuning.

On C6th, if you raise your A's to A# and apply pedal 6, those notes are available at the second fret on strings 5,6,8,9, and 10.

That is true, I'd forgotten that one is not entirely standardized.
But if you drop 11 to D with P8, there you go. I'll poke around and see if I see any more 4th-4th-4th-M3rds without resorting to my extra pedals.

On the Bb6th tuning, that change is available on pedal 2. So that still looks like double footing, but on fret 3

i believe that is only true if you raise both A's to A# so that string 8 becomes C which the BE standard C6 doesn't do for the notes annotated in the original post

Ebb, he said he had a universal tuning. The B pedal does that on every guitar, E9/B6, B6/E9 or Bb6

(low to high) D - G - C - F - A

If you're willing to slant, string 8 at the 10th fret to string 3 at the 5th fret:

G - A - C - D - F - You have to skip the 4th string.

String 9 at the 9th fret to string 5 at the 5th fret:

D - F - G - C - skip the 6th string

I think that if you plan to play a bunch of quartal stuff, you may wish to add some changes to support it. If you take the. 5st string pull from P3, that'd help

A more recent version of the Maurice Anderson tuning can be found on this thread:

http://bb.steelguitarforum.com/viewtopic.php?t=227795&sid=42f8b89635cb80b2687b2edc065f3a05

He replicates the applicable "B" pedal change on pedal 7, so it can be singlefootedly gotten in combination with pedal 6.

Ulrick...On my C6, I have a pedal that's the equivalent of the 9th string/Bb-C raise on pedal 1 of Reece's most recent setup. (in my case...C-D)That's my first choice when I want the chord you're looking for. Love it!!! Raising both B flats kinda cancels that out, but I'm sure it has many other uses.

There's always a trade off... Oh Well
