Hi Gerard, Jerry Byrd was a prolific over dubber, seemingly quite early on, and definitely during the 50s-60s album era. You maybe be able to fudge a fair amount of the solo owing to the similarity of B11th to C6th via A6th. Especially if you simplify three note chords to double stops.
Check out this old post by Mr. Chris Scruggs from a thread about D9th tuning:
“Jerry Byrd used it alot in the '40s and '50s in the form of D9/A6:
E
C
A
F#
E
C#
Byrd's Nest and Byrd's Expedition are both in this tuning. Jerry Byrd used this tuning frequently, overdubbed with C6. Listen closely to "Sweet Corn" off of Hi-Fi Guitar as he blends the two tunings together, making it sound like one fluid take. “
P.S. I’ve come across your Poi Rogers instagram page, and look forward to any steel vids or recordings! |
