I used to raise 5 and 6 a whole step on my 3rd pedal, and I liked it. It's easy to move the pullers over from 4 and 5.

I've had that change on my RKR for as long as I can remember, on all 3 G# strings. On some of them I don't lower the high G# string because the pull is too long/stiff.

I can't listen to it because the choppy rhythm makes me nervous. But I did love listening to Curly play E9 on the Wilburn Brothers show.
