LKV alternative use

Post by Jan Oelbrandt »

I once read on this Forum that putting a E to F# raise on the LKV (instead of the usual B to Bb lower) can be useful. So I tried it, and I think it's gonna stay. Here's a demo: It wasn't God who made Honky Tonk angels

Sounds great, Jan! So, what change do you have on the C-pedal? Is it still E to F#?

Thanks Tucker! I'm still in progress on what I'm gonna do with the C-pedal, for now it's a kinda FranklinP, lowering G# to F# (didn't use it in this video)
