I have been playing a D10 and have been spending more and more time on the c6 neck.
I know what and how Buddy Emmons and a few well known others played. I understand the big chord sound also. Are there any players now or passed who use it as the main neck?

About the only e9 player I have heard do single string work on the e9 is Ron Elliot. Are there any others?

Curly Chalker spent a LOT of time on the C6th neck, and in his case it was the front neck.

Herby Wallace played a lot of C6 on his recordings, and almost all are worth a listen, if you can find them.

Doug Jernigan does a great job on both necks.

I find this statement puzzling. There are LOADS of hot single-string E9 players out there to listen to. Start by digesting the work of Lloyd Green, then come back and we'll discuss next steps. Wink

The recordings of some guy named "Jim Cohen" also contain some very tasty C6 stuff, and a little single string, whoever he is.

And a bunch of it is on iTunes.

There are many but you really don't have to go any further than Tommy White!

I would second curly chalker as being major primary c6.

If you want something special, listen to all of curlys recordings.

Another something special is Tom Morrell.

As far as that listen to Reece andersons work. I mean if you are looking for beautiful sophisticated 4 part harmony going on. As jr and David both say Bb is where it's at.

Single string Hot E9, Paul F., Tommy W., Doug J., Weldon, Bruce B.. The list is long..

Big Jim Murphy, aka "Murph", was another hot player who played great C6th chord stuff, much in the style of Curly Chalker. One clip with Murph and Redd Volkaert is listed below, and you can follow that one to three more posted on YouTube:

Enjoy! Very Happy
