In an online conversation, he wrote, “My road Legrande has the As to Bs and my house guitar has the middle E to F, so I don’t have a preference between the two. Hey I am selling my 70s emmons push pull S-10 pedal steel. Sometimes Buddy raised the 6th string E to F on P4 instead of the the standard A to B changes. Many D-10s do not include the left knee levers, but Buddy’s configuration of them is considered to be “the standard”. When he changed his 1st string from G to D, legions of players and builders followed his lead. This has very little to do with Buddy's present 'set-up' as most companies hardly know what it is anyway and may be changable from month to month. (Bob White is credited with the standard P7 changes.)īy the 1970’s, most D-10 steel guitars had pedals 4 through 8 and RKL set up exactly like Buddy’s. The standard 'Emmons set up' is the name companies have for the pedal set up that guitars are all shipped with if no other set-up is specified. He specified the changes of the 8th pedal to reflect Byrd’s C6/A7 tuning, and the 5th and 6th pedals to get the most common bar slants heard in Byrd’s playing. A Jerry Byrd disciple, Buddy instructed Shot Jackson to put a C6th tuning on the back neck of his guitar. There's some other newer ones I can't remember but you can mix these above in any order. Derby Show-Pro/Marrs GFI Mullen Rains EMCI MCI Williams Sierra Fulawka Fessenden. Lots of others but these would be my guess of the top guitars in todays market for up to date modern steel guitars. Buddy Emmons is largely responsible for the design of the C6th copedent. Emmons Franklin Carter Zum MSA Millineum.
