| Really great sounding and playing on the Bill Anderson portion of his anniversary honor on the Opry last weekend. Player had a Fessenden D10, I believe. I think I have an idea who he is, but I'll inquire of the resident expert here if you please, Brett. |

| I watched it also Jerry on a TV channel called 'Circle' and it was Great, I think too that it was a Fesenden D10. |

Not a resident expert but I thought his playing was quite tasty as well. The Fessy had "ELL" on the front under the keyhead. Initials???

Thanks for sorting it out gentlemen. Sorry Eddie, I'll know next time for sure.
The tone was delicious. I wasn't really watching, my attention was elsewhere. Then I heard that low end growl and said that must be PP Emmons....'til I looked....no...just a terrific player on a good Fessenden axe. |

Eddie is a fine player on both necks and great guy to boot.
He’s also a really good bass player. He plays bass with the Music City Playboys in N’ville and Rusty Danmyer plays steel in that group. They are at the Music City Bar and Grill a few nights during the week.
Eddie has a fine CD with a good mix of country, swing, and jazz. Hit him up on FB and get yourself a copy. If we don’t buy steel CD’s who will?
