On one level it gives you 5 whole steps in a row which can open up quite a bit of stuff. I only lower my 5th string so I have more interval options using the 10th string with it.
I put it on my RK ... |

I used to be a hard core amp only guy. Mostly because I was dealing with producers that totally screwed up my tone because they barely new what a pedalsteel was in NYC.

Pedalsteel gives us the opportunity to be the old guy in the band. The skill sets we need to develop in order to not sound irritating take years and help us to not age out. | |

Your ears might be getting better so you are noticing more. I periodically fall into the same hole.
Unless you steel is just overtuned. |

Check out Beyma Liberty 8's. They are just about perfect at getting the JBL sound. Plus they don't blow out. They are heavy and the magnet is huge. I'm swapping my neo's out. So far I am VER ... |

Very different flavors. What I do when I get stuck with a quilter amp in a back line situation is bypass the quilter amp and plug my milkman “the amp” into the speaker. So that’s my opinion…
