Here is the present copedent that I put on the guitar...

Pedal 2 - raises strings 3 and 6 a half tone
Pedal 3 - raises strings 3 and 4 a whole tone
LKL - raises strings 4 and 8 a half tone
LKV - lowers string 6 a full tone (adjusts with stop screw in changer); half stop adjusts with hexnut on pull rod
LKR - lowers strings 4 and 8 a half tone
RKL - lowers string 9 a half tone; lowers string 2 a half or full tone, with mechanic half-stop mechanism underneath carriage

The guitar originally came without a mechanical half-stop assembly for the string 2. I had ordered one for my Sho-Bud, which I used on the JCH instead. I like a good solid half-stop, which the guitar now has. There are two adjustments underneath. One adjusts the actual stop, the other adjusts the tension. I have it set pretty high, as I like a tight half-stop.
Has split tuners, which I presently only use on string 6.
guitar is standard 26" height
comes with original hardshell case
no return issues on the strings
The guitar has a really great tone in my opinion
The neck selector switch turns on either the C6th or the E9th, but NOT both necks at the same time
no instructions for split tuning, but it's the same as standard. You first adjust the lower with the changer screw using an Allen wrench, and then with pedal and knee depressed you adjust the split tuning with the rod hexnut.

I made a quick unrehearsed video so you can see and hear the guitar in action. Recorded in July of 2018.
