How Low Do You Go! (daft topic alert)

My GFI gets down to A when I step on 'The Sigler'. I know you Universal and C6 neck types can really plumb the depths, so, own up and let us know how low you can go. :shock:

You're a rascal for the innuendo Mr Mitchell or have I misjudged you this time! :D

Connolly said his pal once bought a blow up doll, and the following day returned to the shop saying, I've just bought this and it immediately went down on me! Seller said had I known I would have charged you so much more! :lol:

Sorry people it must be the Scottish lock in!!!!!

Please re-address Danny's ................. 'Billy in the low ground' ..................question!

Yeah Ken, in the past I've been lucky enough to get my mitts on some T.I.T's stuff, old and new. I like them all :lol:

Ha, ha! I'm glad you got that off your chest, John :lol: you'll sleep better now.
And, as much I'm thoroughly enjoying this, I would like to know what's the lowest note you can produce.....on your steel?

Not being a c6 player I am prepared to be told off but I believe the 10th string goes from C to A.

LDN, a :censored: strange person's not the worst I've been called and I'm quite happy with that description :D

So, that A on a C6 would be an octave lower than the A I can get down to on my E9, I presume. I'm just wondering if these 14 stringers, or extended tunings go lower than even that A on the C6 :?:

Danny
The low A on a Sigler pedal is indeed an octave higher than the low A produced by the boowah pedal on the C6 neck. Do you use that pedal very often? I have the Franklin pedal on a number of my guitars, but only use it for a passing chord - and not very often at that.
