I'd put my money on him learning the harmonic/pure tone trick from Jerry Byrd. (Jerry/Jimmy plus senior memory?)
He and Jerry had two radio shows a day in Chet's early Nashville pre-gretsch days for a while. Jerry was a top dog steeler back then.
Unfortunately, Jerry insisted all the transcriptions destroyed
