Pete Drake's tuning

Jim Florence · Post by **Jim Florence** » 12 Sep 2002 2:03 pm

I'm having my 1967 ZB rebuilt and I can't remember the old Pete Drake pedal setup on the "C"neck. I didn't use it exactly, but I had a variation of it, and I had to start with his setup back then. I need to send the setup to Greg Jones who is doing the work. I haven't played it for years.

John, You can often find it on EBAY for anywhere from $5 to $15. I believe the book is still in print(Oak publications) and now comes with a CD with the tunes rather than the flexible record that used to be included. I would suggest you get the book with either the CD or record. Here is one link where it can be found: http://www.midi-classics.com/b/b12050.htm
Great book that will delive tons of fun and lots of valuable info.

Scotty also has the Winnie Winston book & CD.
I have bought several from him.

Winnie, That's 27 cents just right here. You'll soon be able to retire. Here in the States most people ,when they retire,write a book. We're waiting on your next one.

Still haven't got the book. Wonder how long a guy should wait before checking in on it?

I just checked with Winnie Winston´s book and the Pete Drake setup in there apparently is what he had on his Sho-bud Crossover, that is, it uses 6 pedals and 1 knee lever for C6. On a standard D-10, you´ll need 9 pedals if you want to adopt it exactly.

Jim:
If we get to see each other again in Oklahoma, you may find it interesting to see the steel Zane made for his cousin a month before he died. It is unlike any other steel that I have seen made by him.
I bought it from his cousins widow.
