  • The guitar is a Rickenbacker(post-war) JB Series-7 String short-scale console manufactured by Rickenbacker around 1971. The guitar is hollow body and maple on outside.

  • @035jdj That is of course correct, BUT I think the other comments were made regarding Billy Byrd's guitar, NOT the Jerry Byrd model that Jerry Byrd is playing..

  • It's always a pleasure watching a master at work. Thanks.

  • Oh sorry.

  • Jerry's touch and tone is unmatched. He plays with feeling, smoothness and expression that makes the steel guitar a fabulous instrument an icon of the steel guitar.Non-pedal and 7 strings that's all you need. Jerry is missed by all who love the sound of the steel guitar at it's finest.

  • Now if the numbers only didn't hide Jerry's hands....

  • wonderful! Thank you Baz. I think the guitar looks like a D cutaway L5 with a Bigsby arm. beautiful music and funny gag as well. Jimmyinoz

  • Very nice backup by Billy Byrd. I would venture a quess that his guitar was custom built. Billy was the "Byrd" in the "Byrdland" guitar by Gibson.

  • Beautiful.

    I'm curious about the guitarist's instrument. It is a deep body doublecutaway, looks to be an upscale Gibson, from the "cloud" position markers. The ES-150D that came out in 1969 was not so ornate and not offered in sunburst. So this is a custombuilt?

  • Another great history lesson!

    Thank you, Basil, thank you again :)
