Just EG#BC#EG#. Same as C6 but higher. For my group I use a 10 string E13/9. BDEF#G#BC#EG#F#. Like Morell but with low B and high string F# like pedal steel. I have an old National 8 that needs new tu ...

Really enjoying this tuning. Just getting back into 6 string playing, have 4 six stringers and this is going on one for sure. This, C6, and open E will be fun to experiment with, esp with retuning opt ...

I have to use them for my church gig. Don't like them much at all. Suck all the mojo out for me. Tethered to a cable isn't fun for me. Would never use them in my own band, I play at a stand up lap ste ...

Am so sad about this. Really appreciate what he did for all of us. He was a class act. Gonna miss him a lot. Learned so much on here. Invaluable. Cheers Bob! TC

The prettier, more reverential worship songs I keep super careful profile, not distract worship, try to enhance instead. If it's a stompin, clappin hallelujah moment then I will kick it into high gear ...

I have been super lucky to play with excellent pianist at Summit Church Orlando. I love the way the piano and steel interact, sound together. The players at this church are super, never had any troubl ...

Congratulations Bob! Thanks for the wonderful years of service! It has helped me immeasurably. Cheers! TC

I have two 130s. One in NV400 cab with Eps15 and 2134 chips, and the other stock with an 8ohm Scorpion. Got the stock one for 50$. Gig with it all the time for tele and 10 string lap steel and pedal. ...

I think because it was too bassy. I love it as well, would love to live in A6, but I really wanted to go to single neck so E13 won out. Bright, snappy, just a bit more versatile. LOVE the deeper bass ...

Just want to say thanks a million to the Forum store for carrying the Scotty's SIT E13 set! I have been wanting a lighter gauge set for string pulls and such and these fit my Hudson S10 perfectly. It' ...

For some reason my songs/style really benefits from the high G#. I hated not having it there when I took it off. I find it essential part of my tuning. I guess that's why so many different tunings. Pp ...

Yeah I ended up putting the F# on top as well. G# reverse slant? In battle conditions at a gig grabbing for fast double stops I can't do a reverse slant, maybe I am the one missing, but that just seem ...

One more thing, if u get a 10 string made, be careful of string spacing. I got mine with 3/8, like my old Gibson, but it's a bit wide. Would go with 11/16, I think that's what it is, or something slig ...

The palm lever thing looks interesting , but I am out of money so not going there, plus I think it would mess with my picking, blocking. Just using slants and chokes for pedal sound for now. Some guys ...

Thanks Tim! It's a bit rough but it's mostly there, Junior Brown is master of this, I am poor man's version! Even simple parts can sound really good if they are done well. It's really tough doing lead ...

On Georgia Ann u can hear the high F# stand out.

Only a couple of rehearsal videos on instagram. Look up Pinto Psychs on IG and there is are a few videos. Low fi. Yet to post one with single string stuff, but the general sound is there. Mostly chord ...

I tried to lose the G#, but I just missed it tons and put it back on. I want it there. As for F#, it's great for pedal steel type runs as well as in conjunction with C# string choke, finger pull for p ...

I went to a single 10 E13/9 tuning yrs back and never looked back. BDEF#G#BC#EG#F#. Sort of a modified Morrell tuning. I use it in my swing/jump blues/rockabilly trio. Big bright fat sound. Sometimes ...

Anyone know where I can get 3 E9 pedal Rods for a push pull emmons? I have a student model and want to raise height. Already have new legs, just need 26 in rods. Or 27, whatever is standard in pro mod ...

I am getting back into dobro again with a swing fiddle player and have one dobro in G for the grass stuff and the other in E13 spelled E B D G# C# E. That 7th is what I missed from the other variation ...

I made up my mind I would never even try to fly a pedal steel somewhere. I would just try and rent one of something. Flew with a 10 string lap couple of times as carry on. Would never ship my pedal st ...

Indeed interesting. For me I play mostly E13 lap steel so when I go to play pedal steel it's from that world. I love old swing and opry blocking styles. Add Sneaky Pete mentality, Buddy Cage and some ...
