Jerry Byrd solo on old Hank Williams recording.

One of the best Gospel songs ever.

I had to give this a try after hearing two young girls sing it on YouTube.

One of my favorite melodies. https://bb.steelguitarforum.com/userpix2020-03/14404_LarasTheme1_1.jpg https://bb.steelguitarforum.com/userpix2020-03/14404_LarasTheme2_1.jpg https://bb.steelguitarforum.com/userpix2020-03/14404_LarasTheme3_1.jpg https://bb.steelguitarforum.com/userpix2020-03/14404_Laras...

But once everything is mounted on the metal plate a ground would be provided to the jack since the pot cases ar...

There is a ground wire missing on the output jack. Also there doesn't seem to be a "hot" wire connected to the volume pot where the capacitor is connected.
