Jerry Byrd recording for Mercury …
Those Mercury sides are some of the best steel guitar tone on record IMHO.

This is Jerry Byrd's ... # 001 JB
It came to me for pickup redo/remag and general cleaning ... and a fret dot installation
The pickup was not a repurposed Rickenbacher ... completely different bobbin ... extremely well built all round  |
