Never owned or played an Emmons steel.
Looking at the double neck models, I'm curious:
what do the knobs and switch control?
Tone? Which neck is in use?
Just wondering.... _________________ 1979 MSA U12 Pedal Steel

The blade switch in the middle selects which neck, the toggle switch turns the tone circuit on and off and the knob controls the tone when the tone circuit is 'on'. Hope this helps! |
