For me, it would be the 2nd string lowering 1/2 tone.

Lower the 2nd string a 1/2 step and raise the 7th string a 1/2 step.

I'd lower the 2nd a half AND THEN a whole-- and add the 9th lower to C#.

LKL raise E's to F LKR lower E's to Eb then on the right RKL lower 2nd a half then full tone, raise 7th to G and then on 9th D to C#.I think you could pretty much do it all with this.

The first string is up a whole tone,would the
lower on the second work with that?I could do that,but only that.I only have two options
on that knee lever.


Thanks

Donny,Jeff,Dave,Winnie,Rusty and Carl,thanks
for your help with the knee lever.After an all day ordeal of trying different changes i
wound up with the second and ninth string lower.I have already found the second string
lower to be a really nice change but the ninth string lower?I gotta work on that.Anyone wanna help?In my opinion there is no other place on this earth that you will
find the vast knowledge of pedal steel guitar
that is here on this forum.The way you steelers are willing to share is amazing.You are very special people,in a class of your own."HIGH CLASS"

Thanks
Wayne
