E 13b9 — C6 Pedal Steel

E 13b9 has no bar or slant position on the C6 Pedal Steel with the pedals up.

E 13b9 stacks E – F – G# – B – C# – D, and with every pedal up and every lever at rest no bar position on the C6 Pedal Steel sounds that set: at every fret, and on every short slant, a tone it needs is missing or too few strings carry it.

A pedal steel does not stop there. With Pedal 6 + Pedal 8 engaged, a straight bar at fret 1 spells it — 2 changes is the fewest it takes, and the copedent page lists every position, 6 in all.
