It was ever thus: that inversion (A pedal/F lever) is no place to linger for too long. You can learn to 'play' it in tune and, anyway, it's no worse than a bar-slant if you use more than two strings. ... | |

I used to use a B9 and LEX but was too glitchy.
Now I just use the LEX with the tone dialed back a hair. https://bb.steelguitarforum.com/userpix2203/5257_4522c7bc39934d50aff3f56671c78278_1.jpg |
