Steel Guitar Builder

Frank, Everything reversed, Left to right pedals,A/B/C would be on the other end...right to left A/B/C, the left cluster, L/V/R, would be on the right end with the same spacing, and configuration to correspond with the A/B/C pedals, the RH knee levers would be on the LH end. The 1st string, F# plain...
