Lisa Lynn Spears
May 23, 1960 - March 15, 2021

Lisa Lynn Spears passed away on March 15, 2021. Our hearts are broken.

Looking for one of the 10 string Changers Freeman Cowgar used on his pedal projects.

They're fairly typically designed 3 raises, 2 lowers models. All pull.

Reasonable condition.

PS There's adequate photos posted, but it's hard to get the details of the tuning and changer from that. (the changer looks like a 3/2)

"....Its tuned to an E 9th Emmons setup......"

Is there a possibility of getting a better description than this. If it's a 12 string it's going to be either an extended E9 or an E9/B6 Uni ...

Being tuned to just an extended E9, does it have enough hardware to be set up as a full universal E9/B6?

Also how many raises and lowers is the changer capable of?

Thanks

Needing a pedal steel body and a compatible 3/2 changer for a project.

I guess orange is as close a color name as anyone can come up with.

Have had one for time measurable in decades. It has a 15" Altec Lansing speaker which makes a great combination.

Unusual to see a pedal steel player of any age who can improvise that well off a set of complex chords like Rainy Day has.

One of the most interesting and inventive C6 players from the old days was continually doing things that boggled the mind to hear and watch. Lots of times you couldnâ€™t help but interrupt his p ...

No doubt he knows more about music as a subject, and music theory than 85% of E9 pedal steel players, but, hey, if we get off on ridicule as a kick, letâ€™s give him the business.

A reporter on the scene asked him if he felt any remorse for his violent actions. â€œItâ€™s terrible. Those were the two best banjos I ever owned. Theyâ€™re almost collectors items and ...

Nobody has ever published any figures on just how much removing the C6 neck and apparatus would actually save on the weight of a Crossover. Itâ€™s already excessively heavy so the difference wo ...
