Elmore James' Other Gear
"One photo important to me, first published in this book [The Amazing Secret History of Elmore James by Steve Franz], was Elmore playing his Kay guitar, with his picking right-hand out of the way, showing proof of the Dearmond Rhythm Chief Model 1000 pickup, mounted on it. It took me like 15 years to work out what pickup he was using and to locate one, for a half decent price on ebay and try it out on a dreadnought acoustic - and YES, it gives the "Elmore sound" ! " months later, the book came out with the proof I had been looking for all those years !!!"
