Forum Section: Steel Without Pedals Posted: 23 Apr 2024 5:53 am Subject: Need Gibson BR-9 Plate or Tracing |
My P90 arrived today and the OEM doghouse does not fit over it. I thought that this might be the case as the P90 is a DiMarzio Super Distortion.

I have yet to find a source for the postwar ivory 481 knobs, the the brown prewar (and postwar KEH) 481 knobs are readily available -- but they're quite spendy. PM for more info. | |

Gibson also used the brown 481 knobs on their postwar Kalamazoo KEHs, and ivory 481s on all but the very first BR-9s.

If I were Marty I would feature him on steel on at least a couple of numbers.

If you wanted to, you could consider the common 6-string C6 tuning (lo to hi: C-E-G-A-C-E) or 8-string tuning (lo to hi: A-C-E-G-A-C-E-G) to be Am7. Same notes; same intervals. | |
