if you mean the left knee lever a friend of mine bill urshel has it on his derby and he just loves it. Chubby

I had the PF pedal on pedal 4 on the Zum I had.I didn't use it much at all. I think I would have used it a lot more if it had been in the 0 position next to pedal A. My LKV lowers the B's a half which I like.

I have it on my LKV but, I just lower 5&6.
I would probably like it better on a pedal instead of a knee.

I have it to the left of the A pedal....1,Franklin, 2 A, 3 B, 4 C and its great for me.

I also have Lft Knee right the lower of the 6th string a full tone, pretty standard G# to F# and on Left Knee vertical I lower my Bs to As. So I can also lower 5 and 6 a full tone with my knee operating the vertical and LKL together.

I can get the Franklin change with knee or with pedals

Pretty long throw for a vertical.

[Cor Muizer Jr]

yes b0b i don't think i would put it on the LKV, it is a long throw on that.
but for sometimes i hear songs were playing and they use whole tone lowering on 5 and 10
so maybe another trick to get it.

The way I have my vertical adjusted I have no problem and my 6th strind is wound

Our friend Boogie lowers 5 & 10 a whole tone on LKV with no problem and lowers 6-- on RKL. This seems to work well for him.
Personally, I can't come up with a suitable 1/2 stop for 5 and 10 using his method and since I use the 1/2 tone lowers all the time, I'm having to forego the whole tone thing.
I had 5,6 and 10 whole tone on LLKL at one time on a Derby, but the travel was just too much for me.
I would prefer all 3 changes on the same floor pedal, but as of now I'm short a pedal!

[Cor Muizer Jr]

thank you guy's.

i already have the 6 string lower from G# to F# on my RKL

so i am think of set or at least tryout to set my LKV for lowering the 5 and 10 a whole tone.

keep steell'in

I have this on an extra pedal to the right of the C pedal. My setup looks like this:

1 A B C 4
G# to G Franklin

Cor, that should be really easy to do. I should think you could just tune 5 and 10 a whole step instead of a half without changing anything on the guitar. That way, you can try it to see if you like it. Good Luck!

[Cor Muizer Jr]

yes Jerry,

this is an easy way to do because i already have the half tone lower on it so i have just set it to whole tone and then see how much the throw is on the vertical

thanks anyway for the information and the comments on this subject

I tried using the Franklin pedal on the floor, but found it works much better for me on LKR
