Carter Rodding Chart

This document provides a chart detailing the rod connections and pitch changes for different pedals and knee levers on a steel guitar. It lists each pedal or knee lever, the string numbers they affect, and how to connect the corresponding pull bar to raise, lower, or half stop the pitch. For example, pedal P-1 raises the pitch of strings 5 and 10 by connecting pull bar PB-1 to rod R-1. The chart is a reference for steel guitar players to understand how to adjust the pitch on individual strings.
