Great pics, Tim. Pardon my curiosity, please, two wee questions, what change do you have on pedal four of your lovely GFI (I'm biased), and are the drums mic'ed or electronic? No overheads?
Enjoy the tour!

Hi Danny,
I've got the Franklin change on the 4th pedal which I rarely if ever use!
Thinking of changing it to something more useful to be honest, maybe F#'s to G?
open to suggestions.
The guitar itself is a very early "professional" model that later became the "ULTRA".
it was 3 + 4 but I fitted a left knee vertical (F#-G#/Eb-E ) and the 4th pedal.

Its Emmons set up with left knee left E's-F, left knee-right E's-Eb.
Right knee-left B's-Bb right knee-right Eb-D-C# low D to C# on the half stop.

I've also fitted a Mullen half stop to the 2nd string which works really well.

Kit is full electronic.
Sounds awesome.

Thanks for that info, Tim. I had the Franklin on pedal four, too, and also never really used it. Changed to the Sigler, and don't really use that much either. I reckon that F# to G sounds more useful.
I had a listen to the clips on the Facebook links, and the reason I thought the kit might be mic'ed was how good the snare sounded playing a train beat. Sweet.
Thanks again, and please post more clips of the show with that steel involved :D
