E 13b9 — E9 Pedal Steel

E 13b9 stacks E – F – G# – B – C# – D, and with every pedal up and every lever at rest no bar position on the E9 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 B pedal + LKL engaged, a straight bar at fret 11 spells it — 2 changes is the fewest it takes, and the copedent page lists every position, 4 in all.
