Hey Tommy, I don't know how current this is but this is Joe's 12 string setup from his www.pedalsteel.com website. Hope you're doing well these days, my friend. -Jeff

Thanks Jeff and Dave.
I went on Joe's web site and saw the copedent that you both referred to. Just below the chart he states:

"My latest Sierra Steel is a simpler set-up. There is only 6 knees and no pedal or knee pulls more than 3 strings."

Although he says he has a new set-up it isn't shown.

This is the copedent I am looking for.

Why not send a PM over to Ross Shafer? He probably built Joe’s guitar and would know it top to bottom.

I didn't have a hand in building Joe's guitar, but Tom Baker did. He nor I are sure this is the setup in question, but here's what Tom found.

Julian Tharpe is the only other player I know of that dropped the high E a whole step on a knee lever.
