Hi Dale glad you liked it. E9th/B6th universal been trying to use it as one tuning. My Friend Mike said this song was like dualling banjos. I play the Day setup (E9th)and pedal 5 (B6th) is next to my A pedal (E9th) pedal 4 is far right. I want to remake all of the six knee levers now I have them in the right places. I need to give it a good tune up but have little time. All of my customers are squeezing in last minute jobs before I wind up the business. Looking forward to spending more time dabbling. Only Four and a half months to retirement so Knee levers, finish the stereo tube preamp to go with the stereo Power amp I finished a few years ago. But most important get my soldering iron out of storage so I can solder my pickup wires together. they have been twisted together for the last three years. Dave :)

I thought it might be a "Universal" type, but may have also confused you with having a D10 and doing some C6th, but thinking about moving away from C6th. With all the people I talk to, but not often enough to get them totally stuck in my head, sometimes I get folks confused with other folks ;-)

Hi Dale you are not confused. I had an Emmons Loafer that I added a homemade C6th neck to. But I never played it much E9th was a safer neck so I took it off. Sold the Loafer more than three years ago. It sat in my loft for years in bits until I re finished it and put her back to her former glory, Birdseye Maple blue. I just play my Homemade Uni now. Eight pedals six knee levers. I'm not in your league but enjoy turning songs out. Just thinking about my next one which might involve lowering the 12th string open and adding a change on the 4th string E. I will say no more in case it doesn't work in the real world. Sounds good in my head. At least I only hear music up there! Dave :D
