That's been my benchmark for beautiful steel playing ever since I heard it. The Master of Touch and Tone, indeed!

Yes. It was a special one-off made for Byrd by Fender.

Yeah, I kept trying to place what it was...didn't have the metal frame of a 400 or 1000 and didn't look like the Deluxe or SM. Interesting. And funny that he sounds just like himself on that guitar as on a Rickenbacker, or his later custom consoles.

Here's a link to a Forum discussion on the Byrd Fender:

If you use the Google search function and use "Jerry Byrd Fender" as a search term, you'll find other threads too.
