I have played pedal steel on several low budget TV shows. Shows (like
HEE HAW) we used what were called "TV Tracks." They were our recordings
of the song with everything but the lead vocal. The lead vocal was
always live. The band was faking it even though they played on the
recording. When playing an NBC Johnny Cash Special, we were live, no TV
Tracks. Bigger budgets brought the real deal.

Naw, not ALL of them. I saw Chet Atkins in a studio broadcast, 3 feet
away. He was playing.
Merle Travis may have been doing multi track and multispeed recording
before Les Paul. Give a listen to "Merle's Boogie Woogie" if you can
find it.
Also saw Joe Maphis on stage. Again, up fairly close. He was for
real...
Can't leave out Pete Kirby (Oswald). Very real.
