Thanks Peter. I'll keep this in mind for my next pedal steel.

Some who lower 6 on a knee only drop 5 and 10.

I have mine next to the C pedal (P5).
P1 is the 1&2 raise, which I put on the floor so I can combine it with the 2nd string lower.

I'm wondering how difficult is this to install on all three strings to a GFI S10, Emmons setup 3X4

Ask them. I'm sure they'll sell you the kit with instructions. It's no harder than any other pedal configuration.

Simple for you Lane 
I get nervous under the hood.
Not to forget adding the pedal installation.

Can not remember having any problems setting up the changes on a GFI. I only lower the two B strings on a pedal, as the G# to F# change (both G# strings) is on a lever...

Thanks Georg.
I don't have a lower on the 6th string RKL
I changed my RKL to raise the 7th string 1 step.
Do I need to remove A B & C to get the 4th Pedal in the D position? |

| IIRC, you just loosen screws and push pedals over and line them up for the rods on the GFI. Can't check, as that steel is on the other side of the pond from where I am right now, but the photos on the GFI site seem to confirm that. |
