On ext E9 I like a knee lever that raises 12 a whole step, low E to F#. I have it on the same lever that lowers 2 and 9 to C#. (Actually I have a 4th change on that lever ... )
I goes well with the A, B pedals for F#m7, F#m11 etc. And with the D# lever, it makes a nice change F#m7 to B7 or B9. Unfortunately that will not work with Rick's setup since he has the E to D# lower on the right knee, opposite the lever where I would put the whole step raise on string 12. |

I've always wanted the whole step 12th string raise.... just don't know where to put it.... yet....? 
That's my copedent alright, except I also raise string 2 a half stop on LKR.... and I do the default/defeat thing on 12th string half step raise when used in conjunction with the zero pedal (ped.1) |

Hi Jim... actually the only reason I had 11 strings on the C6 neck of my Dekley D12 was that I broke a tuner on the first string at a gig. Only after trying various ideas for that string.(a high A, and F, and a B.) After it broke, I never replaced it because it finally hit me how, once again, Buddy Emmons was truly brilliant to put the re-entrant D note on the string one position!
When Frank Carter was making the Infinity for me, he was against the idea of an D12/11 for aesthetic and many other reasons...so I had to figure out a new note I could live with. I picked an open B (per Reese's non pedal) in position 2. So now my top 4 strings on C6 are D,B,G, and E. The B in that spot is a real wild card that I'm finding a ton of uses for!
I was told when I got my Dekley, that it was originally owned by Bob White, but never got any proof of provenance. It has different fret boards than stock, with "quasars" as markers. I still love that guitar, but my back is loving me more now.  |
Thanks for the picture and for letting me know that I still have a little bit of my memory left! 
However, for the Bob White provenance, I don't remember building one for him. Dekley continued on for a few years after I left, so it could have been built then. |
