Sneaky Pete Kleinow's Gear
Hide incorrect submissions
Sneaky Pete Kleinow often used a Fender 400 pedal steel, as mentioned by Burrito Brothers bandmate Bernie Leadon in his interview with biographer John Einarson.
Sneaky uniquely played an eight-string Fender cable pull steel tuned to B6 instead of the more common C6. He played an usually more jazz or swing tuning in a style that most other players use an E9 tuning for. His rationale was [that] B is the 'five chord,' or dominant chord, to the key of E. This resulted in absolutely-to-Pete steel licks. And no one else thinks like him anyway.
