This is my new line of auto chord guitars. This is a slide guitar but you can also order E9th tuning with two three pedals two raises one lower,the six middle strings of a E9th set of strings fun to play and easy to carry. This is tuned in G7th tuning D G D G B D or some call it Spanish tuning. If you strum open you get all the major chords starting with G chord, if you press A pedal you get all the minor chords, if you press B pedal you get all the dominient 7 th chords, this guitar has patent pending status this guitar is 1 and 3/4 inch deep thanks for looking

Nice, Neat way to do the pedal bar. Can you set these up in E9th tuning with 3 pedals and do the E lowers on the 3rd pedal?

These might be of interest to the growing numbers of Hindustani lap steel players in India and Bangladesh.

Bobby, most of these Hindustani players use 6 strings. A few use 8. None of them use pedals. In my opinion, A 6 string pedal steel with one or 2 pedals would allow them to expand what they are already doing, while a 10 string would scare them off.

I understand but maybe American players would like a light 10 string guitar very easy to carry
