Chet Atkins was probably one of the very first artist I ever saw that did not learn so much what the instrument could do, but instead made the instrument do what HE wanted it to do. This is why it looks so effortless for him and still sounds so amazing. He pretty much ignored traditional limits on what guitar means and made it into art.

Looks like Atkins had specialty fitted Roy Butts filtertrons on that Gibson es335ish he was playing. It doesn't make sense that Gibson put PAFs or similar pickups on everything else then, but I guess they had such a blues and rock following they could care less about clean. Only Roy Clark could get a decent clean tone out of PAFs. By the time these shows were aired in possibly the 70's, Gibson was raking in so much money from their les paul guitars (thanks to Jimmy Page), they could care less about their heritage of beautifully crafted hand carved hollowbodied guitars and clean tones. Perhaps few people had, like Atkins, noted the importance of choice of pickups on tone. IMO, Atkin's best unmuddied cleans (late 50's and early 60's) came out of a hollowbody Gretsch with filtertron pickups thru a (now) vintage Standel 25L15 tube amp. He never picked hard enough to break a fingernail

Don't know enough to comment on pickups, but my ex btlrother- in-law was the best R& B guitar player I ever saw. Never famous. He'd bought a Les Paul Custom which had unsatisfactory pickups. The local big music stores back then would, if you were a known player, let you take an instrument home for a try out. He borrowed one which had pickups he liked, swapped them out and returned the loaner on Monday. Not exactly honest, but they never noticed.

don't forget Glen Campbell... Eddie Van Halen once asked Alice Cooper if he could get Glen to give him a lesson... (Alice and Glen were very close friends) when they were golfing together

Chet Atkins is a virtuoso on the guitar. If not sure if I hear his own individual style though. Jerry has his own style in spades.
