If I replaced my 6th G# Live SS Steel plain .20 with a wound, what gauge would I use...B pedal pulls up to A and F pedal pulls up to A#..trying to reduce the cabinet drop when the C pedal is engaged...Thanks, Larry

.022 is typical. You'll need to adjust rodding a smidge.

Just curious Larry, are you trying to compensate your 6th string when both pedal B and C are engaged or when using pedal C alone?
