Hi everybody...I took great advices about body position in E9...but what about C6? Where's the best place to put body,foot/pedal relations etc? I did Buddy Emmons and Herby Wallace instruction but they don't said nothing about it ( maybe they said in another's intructional books)
Thanks !

When playing the C6th neck, especially if you have the center C6th knee levers, you need to position yourself more to the right and move back away from the guitar some.

"they don't say anything about it" would work well there.

I have center knee levers on my guitar and the only thing that changes position on me is my left leg. My body stays centered pretty much where it is for the E9th neck. I might move back in my seat a little, but I don't think so.

Pretty much, just find a position that feels comfortable to you.

I try to stack them in front of the steel in between sets to act as a shield. Out of the way of the other players, of course...

Closer to the E9 neck.

If you had a Sho-Bud Crossover you wouldn't have to change your position: the same pedals work on both necks, making a 6-pedal instrument the equivalent of a 12-pedal instrument.
