Progressions in F — C6 Pedal Steel

F major harmonises to F – Gm – Am – Bb – C – Dm – E°; F minor to Fm – G° – Ab – Bbm – Cm – Db – Eb. Each chord links to its C6 Pedal Steel page, so a key becomes a short list of places for the bar.

On a pedal steel the chords of a key are rarely far apart: the bar stays put wherever it can while a pedal or knee lever turns one chord into the next. Under each workhorse progression every change is drawn that way — the bar position, which pedals and levers go down or come up, both charts, and a Hear button that bends the ringing strings into the next chord.
