C6 on E9

Post by Richard Lotspeich »

Best help for C6 sound on E9. More of the single string stuff rather than chords. Maybe even just the single string improvising.

You can play a lot of the C6 tab directly on E9th just by transposing the string pockets. You would just be missing the lower C6 strings.

A few ideas and note pockets are shown here in the link below. I didn't focus too much on single string riffs because you can take just about any C6 tab or riff and play it in one of these E9th note pockets:

This is outstanding, Greg . Thanks very much. For those of you who don't know about Greg' s site, he has tons of pedal steel tabs that will get you to think such as the one above. They will provide a player with several years worth of study. Stevet
