First time listen.......................it's really classy!

Is that a Rickenbacker on the lead parts, if not it's a damn good effort at getting the sound, would love to know!!

Only Vanncad knows for sure...   

I remember hearing at one time that both John & George played that lead in unison on Fender Stratocasters - found a few links that seem to support that, here's a couple:

Oh, and this was one of the GREAT BeatlesFest entries. Perhaps someday there will be a BeatlesFest II?

Wow- that's very interesting Cuthbert.
I could have swore it was a 12 string "Ricky" too!

Burtog -  I did it on a Strat. I used the bridge pick-up (doh!) and strummed the strings as close to saddles as I could. I probably used the P01 Clean patch on the BR600.

If I had known at the time that Geir owned a 12 string, I would have asked him to do it!!

P.S. - I love Rob's voice on this. Very "Beatles-esque"
