I watched a number of his videos and I saw mostly 2 levers ...

Thanks all!

Who am I to disagree with bOb? I will call it D/G in my notes and string sets.

What is the serial number? How many pedals & knee levers? Some more photos would help.

1 D
2 A - B +2
3 F# - G +1
4 D
5 B
6 G

Well, if Kelcey worked on it it will be perfect! He knows the Fender cable systems inside out!

That's a new one one me! Very interesting. Do you know which years Fender made D6 Stringmasters?

George,

My P90 arrived today and the OEM doghouse does not fit over it. I thought that this might be the case as the P90 is a DiMarzio Super Distortion.
