Hi GuysJust curious about the way Tommy splits the so called "Franklin 4th Pedal" change. Tommy lowers the 6th string on LNV and lowers 5 and 10 on RKL. Also, Tommy raises 1 and 2 on pedal 4. Any reasons or examples of these would be appreciated. thx bob |

I've observed Tommy using the pedal raising strings 1 & 2. I don't think his knee can move as fast as his foot considering what I heard coming out of his amp.
I also have the "Franklin" pedal and the "split" on knee levers simply because my forth pedal has a "Gimble" change on it. I guess we are all entitled to have signature pedals regardless of musical expertise or lack there of.

I have 1 & 2 going up on my LKL(2) - I have the first only going to G# on pedal 4 for when I need it quickly. Otherwise I like to raise 1 & 2 along with my ('Day') B & C pedal for that major 7th.RR |

Tommy has strings 1 & 2 on pedal#4, because; he uses the ‘Day’ set-up. I have strings 1 & 2 on pedal#1, because; I use the Emmons set-up, and it seemed like the natural way to go, and I don't use it much anyway, so; in the first position, it's generally 'out of the way'! Just like the usual pedal#4 change on C6, raising strings 4 & 8 1-tone. I never used that much, so; I have that change on a LKV, so; it's there, if I need it!------------------
